Our Work as Futile
U.S. Employees Engaged at Work

Most workers, many of whom are millennials,
approach a role and a company with a highly
de鍖ned set of expectations. They want their work
to have meaning and purpose. They want to use
their talents and strengths to do what they do
best every day. They want their jobs to 鍖t their
life. And they are less interested in settling.
Ed O'Boyle and Annamarie Mann
WHY DO YOU WORK?
By the sweat of your brow
you will eat your food
until you return to the ground,
since from it you were taken;
for dust you are
and to dust you will return.
Genesis 3:19
17 So I hated life, because the work that is done under the sun
was grievous to me. All of it is meaningless, a chasing after the
wind. 18 I hated all the things I had toiled for under the sun,
because I must leave them to the one who comes after me. 19 And
who knows whether that person will be wise or foolish? Yet they
will have control over all the fruit of my toil into which I have
poured my effort and skill under the sun. This too is meaningless.
Ecclesiastes 2
20 So my heart began to despair over all my toilsome labor under
the sun. 21 For a person may labor with wisdom, knowledge and
skill, and then they must leave all they own to another who has
not toiled for it. This too is meaningless and a great misfortune.
22 What do people get for all the toil and anxious striving with
which they labor under the sun? 23 All their days their work is
grief and pain; even at night their minds do not rest. This too is
meaningless.
Ecclesiastes 2
24 A person can do nothing better than to eat and drink and 鍖nd
satisfaction in their own toil. This too, I see, is from the hand of
God, 25 for without him, who can eat or 鍖nd enjoyment? 26 To the
person who pleases him, God gives wisdom, knowledge and
happiness, but to the sinner he gives the task of gathering and
storing up wealth to hand it over to the one who pleases God.
This too is meaningless, a chasing after the wind.
Ecclesiastes 2
I dont want to work
hard all my life just to make
someone else rich.
At the age of 24 I had
met all my lifes goals.
All of it is meaningless.
Hevel
(meaningless)
You also go work in my vineyard.
WHAT ARE
YOU CHASING?
