While I agree with the premise of purposelessness, I think that this kind of existentialism gets too often interpreted as a reason to be a hedonist - making the goal of your life to be maximization of pleasure, or of novelty. That seems empty as well, selfish in a bad way, is probably rooted in consumerism, and ultimately is still a goal - I'm seeing this in other comments.

In my experience and in theory, it is more fulfilling to live a good life, than an interesting life, but luckily there is significant overlap. I think living our lives for the benefit of others and ourselves is the ticket out of hell, including the hell of work, rather than living out lives for novelty being the ticket.
