This statement means that back in history certain tasks weren't considered jobs, they were more like daily chores that had to be done all the time. As times have changed we now hire for jobs that people used to do on their own. For instance today we employ people to do jobs such as farming and landscaping whereas back in the day these were jobs that the individual at the home used to complete as a way of life (daily chore)

Hmm. Interesting answers so far. I like them all. Makes me wonder about the person who asked the question. Is the questioner someone who got that quotation as part of a response (from her parents) when she asked them whether they got paid for cleaning their room when they were kids?

You worked for little, or nothing.
Nothing much has changed, has it?
OR
You loved your job and would have done it for little or nothing.
Which was good, because that is all you got.
