Slaves were forced to work all day in the sun without shade performing brutal physical labor. They were forced to work in the rain without cover, in the snow without protection from the cold. In mines, and in other dangerous jobs where injuries were frequently fatal. They were beaten regularly for all sorts of stupid and made up reasons. They were raped. And tortured. And murdered. They were bought and sold like things, and children were torn from their parents because they were just things.

To call one of the cushiest jobs that has ever existed in human history "slavery" because of some minor restrictions on your ability to make even more money on the side...I don't even have the words to describe just how ridiculous you come across right now.

I think you've made a mistake. Their comment was not meant to be understood literally. Their intended meaning was obvious to me.
