A rare video that of the type that I see a real man do his thing, focused on his work, has a style, I seem to enjoy it. Thanks a lot!

[@amigoscode]

You welcome bro

[@vineethmenon5546]

A day in a life of a coder without gym...extravagant breakfast....buffet and friday night party. Thanks for making us feel normal :D

[@bahenbihen]

I'm no software engineer, but I was starting to get pissed watching such videos. This one is a pleasant exception

[@marv8360]

The gym isn't normal?

[@mikeb4471]

Go to the gym boys! You will be grateful in the future 😬

[@Gripengamer]

@@mikeb4471 This! Coding for 8-9 hours a day is bad for your health, even worse if you dont gym or similar.

[@alessandrocappiello112]

no one should spend that much time in front of a pc without exercising tbh

[@eptehal1]

i like how he included him asking his colleagues, as someone who is new to the corporate world this has inspired me to ask and still be confident with my skills and abilities. Thanks bro!

[@Someonelowkey]

Asalamualikum brother, beautiful to see a brother not hold back on their youtube videos on their religion. I really appreciate you including your prayer and showing people how beautiful Islam is. Salamu alkiumu brother

I pray whoever reads this will be successful, keep fighting for success, them rich stay rich by spending like the poor and investing why the poor stay poor be spending like the rich yet not investing, Roar!! Invest, earn and be successful.

If you want to be successful have the mindset of the rich spend less and invest more don't give up your dreams..

[@fastlinkdeliverycompany6402]

[@fastlinkdeliverycompany6402]

Impressive, I realized that the secret to making a million is saving for a better investment.. I always tell myself you don’t need that new Aston Martin or that vacation in Hawaii just yet and that mindset helps me make more money investing.

Okay, so Software engineer: - speaking to different people about random stuff - having a laugh - eating and drinking - praying - playing ping pong - looking at your computer with smart face Got it.

anything else?

[@Enidub]

Considering he works for a bank, I appreciate the fact that he was able to give some snippet of work life. Not a lot of people have insight into the day-to-day, and may get the wrong idea about atories they hear. Also, big up for his colleagues being so open to taking part.

[@Jennifer-uh8th]

Lmao, right? XD

[@estebanpitou7917]

Soft skills - emotional intelligence, getting on with colleagues etc.

[@shaunmc013]

retsmod he doesn’t work for a bank they wouldn’t let him film this. He said Starling not Sterling. But this video is dope..

[@abdu1wahid105]

Liked already just from the title! --- Lovin' the portable tropical humidification (in case you dun miss jungle! ) --- Poolside slides killed it 🤣 -- Reminds me of my days cranking out code in the city ... Dev's are such characters! A blessed Jummah brother.🙏

[@TinyMaths]

I'm a ways off from being a software engineer but, that was such a lovely production man. You tell in interesting story with the camera and the other parts of your production. Even made me feel a bit of nostalgia for central London, since I haven't been there much since the pandemic started. Nice vid.

@Superb ASMR dog don't bark

[@woritsez]

Really nice insight, sort of Mount Olympus level of knows from down here in the everything looks like magic section. Good to see an occupant of that lofty space uses the bus and I notice phone payment so slow vs bus schedules tight the bus is away down the road while the payment is still processing, may be one day it'll be as frictionless as putting the correct coins down. A lot of breaks, more than 1 in 12 hours is opulent life, that bus driver only be getting one. Although to my brain the socializing aspect looks the stuff of nightmares it is good to see.

[@pmc-rcv]

I'm coming from your wonderful course about Java Streams in Udemy and i'm so grateful by clear the way about this. You are the best!! Thank you so much!!!
