Not sure what dispute you have with these: "Working for money is part of ordinary life, no matter how or how much the job keeps you or takes you from home and whether or not the person is single, coupled or otherwise has a family."

Working is part of ordinary life no matter how or how much the job keeps you or takes you from home and whether or not the person is single, coupled or otherwise has a family? In fact, it is. Or are you going to say that work hasn't been part of your ordinary life?

It wasn't I who suggested all conditions of work are equal, but yet you raise that point. Earlier today, I even posted in this thread in a way to indicate that not all conditions of work are equal.
I guess I misread the disdain dripping from your words, but typically, statements that workers are not "indentured servants or otherwise forced to work by their employers/clients" are not used to demonstrate respect for difficult work conditions and the choices that workers have to make on a daily basis, in an industry with high rates of workplace harassment and low wages. I'm not sure what your argument really is other than just being argumentative.
