laravel, displaying data on a dropdown from another table but saving in current table

I have 2 tables, a user table and a working_hours table. on the Add screen for working_hours I want a drop down to allow a user to pick an ID from the users table and when the submit button is pressed, it will store in my working_hours table under the worker_id column.

Controller:

public function store(Request $request)
    {
        $energy = new Work;
        $energy->staff_id = $request->input('staff_id');  
        $energy->work_time = $request->input('work_time');
        $energy->save();
        return redirect('/vmaintenance')->with('success', 'data added');
    }

Model:

class Work extends Model
{
    public $timestamps = false;
    protected $table = 'work_log';
    protected $primaryKey = 'id';
    protected $dates = ['date'];
    protected $guarded = ['id'];
    use HasFactory;
}

dropdown list:

<div>
<label>Select Staff</label>
<select name="staff_id" >
<option value="">--Select--</option>
</select>
</div>

I am very new to Laravel so I dont know what to put in that drop down.

Doe anyone know what I could do?
