So where would anyone work and also, if no one can work, how does the economy survive?

Glass half full: Goods and services become so cheap and plentiful as to be free or nearly free. People have the wherewithal to do whatever they want. Paint pictures, spend quality time with the family, frequent the ubiquitous robot brothels. Benevolent robots take care of everything. This would present its own set of problems, as humans, for the first time in their existence, would no longer have to struglle for survivial. People being people, many or most would become slothful layabouts.

Glass half empty: The robots will see us as a nuisance and let us starve or proactively wipe us out.
