Over the past few years, tech companies have been cutting employees and instituting layoffs — a trend sure to accelerate in the near future with the rise of artificial intelligence.
But the likely direction of the industry has not seemed to faze at least some workers, who act as if their cushy jobs are virtually guaranteed.
We’ve all seen the videos at this point of casually smug Silicon Valley staffers posting “day in the life” videos from the office, in which free amenities are enjoyed and hardly any work is completed.
The latest viral video of that genre came from an employee at Roblox — a video game company that, more than almost any other technology firm, by no means has a secure future.
The footage — posted to X on Feb. 22 alongside the caption “It really is just daycare” — showed a young woman who identified herself as a “senior software engineer” enjoying her last day after five years at Roblox.
She bragged to the internet about the breakfast buffet, lunch, snacks, and coffee she enjoyed in a nearly empty cafeteria.

Beyond free food, the engineer enjoyed ping pong, and even time playing Roblox on the clock.
She logged out promptly at 5:00 p.m., apparently only having one meeting and doing a bit of coding in the afternoon.
