People are wired differently and each would consider the other job a lot harder than the other.
Of course, days like today that I spend golfing in the sun are about as easy as they get.

Framing is hard labour?
What is your definition of hard labour?
For most trades, generally, they are paid to both do some minor physical work ( ie move material X from point A to point B) and then install it correctly. It is my opinion that unless the 'carrying' part is well over 50% of your job, it isn't 'hard labour'.
Now, there are grunts who could be hauling plywood or other materials all day that I would consider to be hard labour, but I wouldn't consider them framers.
