Imagine if an advanced alien race lived nearby, and hired us to do things for them remotely; the jobs are good enough you choose to work there instead of other options.
But then the aliens are like "your working conditions are bad by our standards, we're gonna stop hiring you"

you'd prob be like, damn, while I don't object to better working conditions, you just took away what was clearly my top choice based on me choosing that, and the other human options around here are less good for me. You're clearly just trying to make urselves feel better.

I guess them hiring us might be like them giving us a fish, long term, rather than us learning how to fish?

Maybe replacing alien workers with cheaper humans does some bad things to the social cohesion of alien society.

I don't need to imagine that, it's actual RL picture of US condemning Russia/China of hiring DPRK laborers because of "poor working conditions".
PS. I don't like Russia, China or DPRK, just was surprised to see such direct representation of RL problem and wordings.

And let's also say the aliens had previously conquered us and destroyed our own local industrial capacity before offering us jobs so dangerous that they wouldn't do them.
