Source - Working hard — or hardly working? Mansi Singhal, a 24-year-old software engineer, has gone viral several times over after she revealed what a day in her life at a Microsoft office — where she works in Hyderabad, India — looks like in an Instagram reel.

Between a 45-minute breakfast break, a dessert run and a quick gaming interlude, Singhal’s representation of office life has many people baffled and wondering when she gets any work done — while being simultaneously jealous of the wild variety of snack offerings.

Social media users analyzed her video intensely, and, given the timestamps included, many suspect that her day is made up of more breaks than the average office worker.

One commenter suggested that “the most generous read is 6h15m of work and 3h10m of breaks.” Some thought that was quite a benevolent take indeed — and guessed Singhal’s actual work time was just around three or four hours.

The video…

In the words of Chris Brown…"why you hatin' from outside the club…you can't even get in." Buncha MF narcs on the internet these days I'll tell ya. Oh you're mad that this woman has the easiest job of all time? That she has snack breaks and post-lunch "chill sessions?" Grow up. You're just mad that you're not her. You may think she has it easy but remember, she has to live in fucking Hyderabad, India. A place where temperatures routinely exceed 110 degrees fahrenheit, not to mention to the 90% humidity and God awful air quality. So yeah, she may eat dessert after lunch on the house, but let's keep things in perspective here. Besides, it's not like Microsoft can't afford to have a few people slacking off. Here's what some of the haters had to say…

 "This woman started her lunch at 1:00 and didn’t resume work until 2:15? Unless she’s trying to eat an entire ham by herself, that’s crazy,” one X user wrote. “The ‘adult day care’ label is more than earned. I’m surprised there’s no designated nap time.”

Loser. 

“I would be SO fried there. Pretending to work is more stressful than actually working,” continued the same user, referring to the “ghostworking” trend sweeping across burned-out Gen Z corporate employees — a k a, fake it ’til you make it.

Nerd. 

“This is the schedule of a hard worker at Microsoft,” vouched a former employee under a post on X. “The slackers are coming in at 11 and leaving at 4.”

Dork.

Who gives a shit Singhal fake works all day? That's 90% of corporate America. I used to work at a tech company in Massachusetts (shout out Meditech) where employees we would literally go sit on the toilet just to pass time. That's what people do at work - they wait to leave. Don't hate on Singhal just because her waiting is less painful than yours. That said, probably not the best video to post after your company announced they are laying off 9,000 employee. Oh well. Live and learn! Thanks for reading.
