Yeah I think I might have gone a little overboard on the descriptions and whatnot.

Basically, a Lightworker is Selfless and a Darkworker is Selfish. But it's more in the sense that a Lightworker focuses on others while the Darkworker focuses on themselves.

So, a Lightworker GIVES and a Darkworker TAKES. From this, we could generally say that a Lightworker is CONSTRUCTIVE and a Darkworker is DESTRUCTIVE.

I like using analogies to explain so if you imagine something like a Role Playing Game or any kind of game that involves Party Battles.

You have a good side and an evil side. BOTH sides have Knights and Black Mages and BOTH sides have Technicians and White Mages lets say.

The Knights and Black Mages are the Darkworkers. They destroy things.
The Technicians and White Mages are Lightworkers. They build/restore things.

Both Good and Bad sides need both Lightworkers and Darkworkers to attack their enemy while taking care of and healing their party at the same time.

So, Lightworker and Darkworker are your CLASS/JOB, whereas whether you are on the Good side or the Evil side is your ALIGNMENT.

Usually in these games, the Good side is trying to build and improve civilisations/defending against hostile parties. The Evil side is trying to destroy everything and send everything to hell, so to speak.

So yeah, I don't know if that makes things clearer? lol I think this is an interesting discussion though
