Rome mostly had two parts of the empire, the rich part or posh part of the city, and the poor slums. The poorer people usually worked as construction workers or had little shops below their houses, the poor people did all of the gruesome labor work. The more wealthy people of Rome would have higher paying and more respected jobs such as lawyers, senators, government officials, and engineers. The poorer people would also work longer hours in a day so most people were stuck at work for the whole day. When they got home some fortunate people would take a bath and maybe change clothes while less fortunate people just went straight to bed after maybe eating a small meal. Since the wealthier people usually had slaves they would probably come home to dinner, bathe at home or go to the bath house, and spend time with their family. I hope this helps, I had the same question in world history class.
The middle ages in Europe were pretty terrible. Politically, kings ruled directly over groups of people, or over whole countries. The kings answered to the Pope generally. Economically, the kings and their nobles owned most of the profits of hard labor, while the townspeople after were treated to low wages. A sizable gap between classes was seen economically, and there was little room for changes in a persons economic class. Socially, the structure went like this: beggars and thieves, serfs (or non land owning peasants), knights, nobles and bishops, kings, the Pope.
