Office work is the envy of every farm and trade worker

This isn't exactly true. There are, believe it or not, people who prefer to work outdoors and do heavy labor. Especially farm work. Some people aren't really suited for office work. (pun intended)

A bit disingenuous to skip the part where their bodies are falling apart and they're in constant pain.

This makes the false assumption that office workers don't incur work related repetitive task injuries. Every lower class job, whether in an office or a field, comes with its own bodily injury index.
