The Chinese characters 工 meaning is work, labor or skill.

工 is a pictograph of the ancient workman’s square or carpenter’s ruler. By extension, it means work, labor or skill. An early form included three parallel lines traced with the square. Man bas always bad problems with work and remuneration. Instead of striving for prosperity through work, he works for prosperity through strife, as the master and servant that the picture shows.
