I have heard similar from Clinicians but not from coaches. The 'spirit' in which it was said, was to put an emphasis on how important OUR jobs are on the court. At the upper level, it is the OFFICIALS living as well so it is sort of a moot point on the D1 level for the most part. IMO, it is just another way for a coach to complain about how bad their teams is playing.
If I am not mistaken, NFL officials are not full time either. Just saying
