"Elf ships on our shore? Elf workers taking your trades? Workers who don't sleep, don't tire, don't age." -Tamar, a Man of Númenor, The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power
Exactly what jobs would Elves take from Men?
******************************************
"Begone, foul dwimmerlaik, lord of carrion! Leave the dead in peace!"
"Come not between the Nazgul and his prey! Or he will not slay thee in
thy turn. He will bear thee away to the houses of lamentation, beyond
all darkness, where thy flesh shall be devoured, and thy shrivelled
mind be left naked to the Lidless Eye."
"Do what you will; but I will hinder it, if I may."
"Hinder me? Thou fool. No living man may hinder me!"
"But no living man am I! I am Eowyn, daughter of Theodwyn!"
"Er, really? My mother's name was Theodwyn, too!"
"No way!"
"Way!"
"Wow! Let's stop fighting and be best friends!"
"Cool!!"
-Zack Snyder's The Return of the King

They don't sleep or tire? Perfect for the much-sought-after clerk jobs on the 12-8 am shift at Quik-Valar-Marts everywhere.

It would have been a good marketing slogan, but unfortunately all the ads also featured a one-way ticket as a visual motif, which some hotel guests found disquieting.

Men are so unreliable - often keeping it for themselves.
Happiness: money matters, but less than we think and not in the way that we think. Family is important and so are friends, while envy is toxic -- and so is excessive thinking. Beaches are optional. Trust is not. Neither is gratitude. - The Geography of Bliss by Eric Weiner as summarized by Lily Fairbairn. And a bit of the Hobbit reading thrown in never hurts. - NottaSackville

"He* sees you when you're sleeping; he* knows when you're awake."
* The seeing and knowing is done by Santa or his duly nominated untiring proxy.
Celebrimbor: "Pretty rings..."
Dwarves: "Pretty rings..."
Men: "Pretty rings..."
Sauron: "Mine's better."
"Ah, how ironic, the addictive qualities of Sauron’s master weapon led to its own destruction. Which just goes to show, kids - if you want two small and noble souls to succeed on a mission of dire importance... send an evil-minded beggar with them too." - Gandalf's Diaries, final par, by Ufthak.
