Follow me on social media:
Instagram: / michaelgofron
Office: empty
Game room: full
I was like bruh i need this job
Nebula ShxcK - word! 😂
@Juha Bach probably not but they get paid hella racks so this ain’t a bad life
Meanwhile millions of accounts have been falsely reported and disabled and their employees are just messing around in the game room smh ridiculous!
Yea that’s why so many accounts are disabled and no one can get in touch with these people they in the game room playing instead of working.
eating and preparing : 6 hours
coding : 2 hours
it hurts a lot :')
me code just a need 4hour/day :)
sanity is also needed
Paid too much...the farmers should get more income than these guys.
real engineers will code at least 10 hours a day, this dude a vlogger not a developer :)
bruv you ate "Breakfast" 4 times. 🤣
Yeah I got that! Lots of other weird routine scheduling too.
oh come on, show us stackoverflow screen 😂
lol
Stackoverflow is so usefull
90% stackoverflow 10% self coding :)
@@potatoking9945 joke?
Potato King - half the time copy n paste 😂
Sometimes I get overwhelmed by college so i need to watch some vids like this to get motivation and keep going! thanks man. U got new subscriber
carlos V thanks. Yeah college can be overwhelming but keep it up and I’m sure good things will come!
@@migotech4526 Thank you I Appreciate It
This is definitely not the norm. Most likely as a software engineer you will get to enjoy the usual 9 to 5 routine. Excluding a recreational room and little freebies like food and drinks. Not that that's bad. I'd rather go to work at 7 fixing some bugs and get the hell out at 3
Basically
sometimes you get overwhelmed by college so you start watching an UNREALISTIC day in the life video to get your hopes up? interesting...
So being a softwar engineer is just about eating now
Man of Sorrow you wish lol
@@manofsorrow4785 just try to be one if its that easy
These videos don’t show when, u have u skip breakfast and eat other two meals on ur desk while coding if the task is length but moderately difficult. When task is difficulty or some critical bug shows up then, no lunch n all just some protein bars or something. Most of these videos are of people who r freshers so it’s not the end of the world even if they work leisurely. I’m Head of Product ( Lead engineer of the product team, front end, back end n dev ops for the product). Good days r fine but bad ones were like starting at 9am and working till 6 am(21 hrs) the next day lol. Coz various teams comprising of hundreds of engineering’s work on different sections in a product and if some developer made a mistake and it wasn’t caught in unit or integration test, then u r the one who has to figure it out, as sometimes mistakes hv domino effect, as a single service is used at multiple places and often bad code or mistake from one developer affects others developers n their services as well.
Most of these vids are just lies idk why i keep watching them
The pretty chill job 😂 i love it
A day in the life of a software engineer : I see him eating breakfast. Interesting...
:3
Fuck before brush 😂
and "working"
Real life
😂😂👌
Covid: I’m gonna destroy this man’s whole routine
Me: i don't have a routine at all
He can work from home
Ali Ahmad well duh
His job won't be hurt, because he can work from home.
Not really
so officially, working from 10 am to 12 pm and from 2 pm to 6 pm. 6 hours per day. happy life :)))
Instagram NYC is literally my dream spot, this is motivation.
Me : where the hell is everybody?
Me later : Ohh they r in the gaming room
On 8 hour shift you get 2 hours of free time? That is crazy.
thats normal, i work as a QA engineer and 1 hr is lunch and 2 hours i fool around
I'd honestly prefer to just take a 30 mins break during that and therefore go back home 1.5h earlier
@@Lampalot that is just a waste of time. I understand that everybody needs brakes during work, but 3 hours is just too much.
that is normal in the big companies. it is required to have breaks and chill for couple of minutes, get coffee and etc. Calculate launch break + all these small breaks and you will see that most people actually work about 6 hours in a 8 hour shift and that's how it should be in order to be productive and actually like your job. In one of my jobs, we had a tracker that calculated the time that we actually work on the PC, it was about 6 hours and our boss said "that's normal, it's how it should be"
N V very true Yelp is right up the block same notion
Damn. Once at my job I was offered a Gatorade and was later charged for it twice the retail price..
Hi Mike,
How are you? I am glad to see you doing well at work and I enjoy watching the video.
I hope that you would come back to the campus sometimes in the future.
Best,
Him: Goes out at 7:40, in the office at 9:10 while doing breakfast and gym in between...
Me in a 3rd world: Goes out at 5am to make the 8am office time. Pure 100% commute. :/
Natural selection, some people need advantages others need crap.
@@Gripengamer but... I don't need crap :(
@@RyeTheWanderer had a stroke when i wrote my first comment. I meant that life is also about luck and finding oppertunities basically.
Living in Greece I know I'm not gonna get these kind of jobs but these type of videos help me get through my first year in college in this freaking pandemic
Thanks for sharing a slice of your day bro!
Your video motivated me a lot. You got a new subscriber.
Haha man nice Video! Lovely to see you online 😂 greetings from Buenos Aires
IG, Spotify, Netflix or Nike would be my dream companies. I hope to continue my path as a SD/SE to get there. Shoutouts to you man and thank you for the content. IG HQ not too far from my job lol.
A very real and touching one, keep it up
He literally took a bath in his office I mean at Instagram😳
love this video!!
10 am to 6 pm.
15 minutes to the office
2 breakfast
That is quality of life
Can you share your interview preparations tips and suggestions for an aspiring dev?
So, typical morning of a german employee:

6:20 Shower
6:35 wakeup everyone at the house and wife does the rest
6:40 Leave House
7:00 Start working
12:00 lunch
12:30 work
14:00 work
16:00 work
17:00 Go Home
17:20 Start 2nd Job as a Software Engineering
19:00 Family Time
22:30 Bed
Dann bist du aber definitiv in der falschen Firma. ^^
@@desdeney Bis auf den zweiten Job kann ich das schon nachvollziehen haha
Camera man: How much food shall we show in the video?
MiGo: Yes
It's all about eating healthy and keeping your body in shape! The code almost writes itself! 🤪
This should be valid for everything in life, specially manual work.
Does the documentation write itself too? A man can dream.
Github Copilot check out
Is this what you do daily? Or was this more of a chilled day with no so much work at work ? Much love from Sofia, Bulgaria
man!
This was a normal day I'd say. Sometimes I have busier days and stay a bit later and some days are a bit easier.
MiGo Tech wait it can get easier than this??
Way to stay fit man! My dream life. Lift and code
Yeah gotta keep a balanced lifestyle!
Imagine the reaction of public when the cube actually breaks 😂
You got my subscribe Dude, thanks for sharing this .
Good video!! Crazy the views you got on it
Great Video MiGo
Lol nice man, youre vids have exploded, i watched some your first stuff
that's help me to study and work more harder....
thanks man. 😊😊
The Quote in the gaming room should say "play hard stay away from the office" hahaha
And btw keep going best wishes for your future
Great Content
Your day is so nice
Your video was nice this is inspiring me more to be a software engineer in near future BTW nice keyboard in your office which one is it
This is like watching one of those food shows on TV during the day.
I have a serious doubt ....you say you work on the iOS app but wherever i search on the internet it says Instagram is built using react native..so you just work on the objective-c code that use device functionalities I guess ? Or is the app completely made using obj-c ?
such a beautiful life
Wow this is amazing 😍😍
Your life is so beautiful!
Lets not forget that he had to hop outta bed after turning off the lights to turn off the camera 😂
Lovely video!
worked 6 hours!!!!! ate like 4 times before leaving office. and he makes WAY MORE THAN I EVER WILL
This is so cool
Wait a min ! what about daily standups ? How do you collaborate with your team ? It would have been nice if you could have shown what exactly you do as far as daily tasks are concerned
Lol. I code between 8:30 and 5 PM only interrupted by a 15 min Meeting and a 30min lunch break. There are phone falls and code reviewing squeezed in too, but still...
Big Ice yup I’m from 10-7
I was wondering why the office was so empty, then I checked the upload date
Better than my whole day😂
Nice video man, working on the grind that someday I would get to work for big companies such as instagram in the US :) For that i will sub :D
Thanks man! You can do it. Just got to put in the work studying and coding :)
@@migotech4526 Thanks man! I'll be doing my internship this summer! Rewatching this video, to keep myself motivated and keeping the grind.
hey any chance you can help me get my instagram account back? It got disabled and I cant get into it
My account got hacked back in June, and the many video selfies I've submitted aren't being approved for whatever reason. Can you please fix this issue? I'm trying to get back into my account. Thanks!
Hey bro. What can I do because I remember my email or number I used in my ig account? And whenever they send the code and the code goes to the number and email that I used.
Can you block my ex? That beach won’t stop calling
Alex Mamedy LoL
Can you just block her?
😂😂😂
Hahhhaha
What a life 😌
Looks like chilling out with rare interruption to have some work to be done 😆
I counted 7 hours of actual work, man I always had to put in at least 8 and a lot of times more than 8 being pushed to get projects done.
Heyyy, I have a question, would be you please answer ? If I were to remove my number from instagram, would I get any SMS on the same number at time of doing so?
The coffee smoothie is the best part
How old Is this video? I’m guessing your routine has changed a Lot the last two weeks 😰
It has! The office is closed so now I'm working from home. Guess I should update with a new schedule since it's way different than before haha
MiGo Tech yeah I’ve been wfh for 2 weeks now and things took a 180 haha bye bye routines.
@@migotech4526 hey dude, you probably get this message a lot but could you help me recover my disabled IG account?
what do you often do while at work like: think idea, solve problem or something?
Please give your linkedIn, I have some queries !
"I thought he would hangout with instagram's model"
Here we go Indian desire
You are always reading with in the evening? You utilize, the app, summarizing decent books in a concise and comprehensive way?
Besides cool Video. You are an agile minded and charismatic person.
focus on his chest for a sec when he begins to code.. damn those are some powerful exhales

Cool story bro
You didn’t mention your wife.... may be your relative don’t know but good story
i need this kind of motivation
Other People : Cooks breakfast lunch and dinner
Software engineers : We dont do that here😂😂
Which software is used in software engineering for codes ?
Nice vlog. I thought Instagram has free dinner, why did you buy takeout? Does IG have the same promo-or-fired, fast PIP, and bad WLB culture of FB?
Great video! Can you share which programming language you use for your work?
I work on iOS so mostly objective c
bro you spend more time eating and doing other things rather than working... just found my dream job
I think many software engineers lack regular exercise. How about doing more videos about that in the future. Keep up the good work!
Luka Dumančić
True.
I get up everyday at 5 in the morning when basically no one is outside and do sports 5:30 - 7am.
I try to do it everyday but sometimes I also sleep till 7😬

What kind of programming language and frameworks you use?

Does instagram give Work from Home to employees due to covid19?
Yeah, we're all working remote now. At the time I made this video it was voluntary work from home which is why the office was so empty. I'm working from the comfort of my parent's home now :)
How would I go about getting my deleted instagram account back
Could you help me with my disabled accounts. I have tried everything at this point. Nothing is working. Pretty please. Thanks!!!!!
He : I work at instagr....
Another dude : wait up man hack a account for me :))))
This explains a lot as to why dark mode is so glitchy on Android.
