It will just be completely fruitful work without frustration.
where as in this life, u gotta work hard, have a little luck, and when it all comes together, you may or may not find that special lady or get that awesome job, but if you do it makes it worth EVERYTHING.
so thats why i sometimes think i dont even want to go to heaven because it will just feel fake, and everyone will have everything so there will be no value to anything really. but i guess its better than hell, but i dont believe in hell.
Adam had to tend the garden before the fall. The curse wasn't that he would have to work, it was that his work would become much less fruitful.
Jesus says that his father is still working, and so is he. (John 5:17)
Jesus says he goes to prepare a place for us. That's work.
Wouldn't surprise me if there were scientists in heaven. I doubt that god will give us omniscience on day 1.
