A recent post on the social media platform X has ignited a lively debate about the work-life balance of tech professionals. The image, which shows a man working on his laptop while standing outside a food stall in Bengaluru, has resonated with many users, while others have taken the opportunity to joke about the demanding lives of corporate employees.
The Viral Image and Reactions
The post was shared by X user Kritika Kumari, who captioned the picture, “His priorities are sorted.” The image quickly gained traction, with many users relating to the techie’s multitasking lifestyle. One user commented simply, “Corporate Employee,” adding a crying emoji to convey the bittersweet reality of working in the corporate world.

Another user humorously critiqued the life of corporate workers, writing, “Ek labor karega bhi kya? Apne ghar ja kar English jhaadega. ‘I am audible? My screen is visible or not?’ (What will a labour do? He will go back home and flaunt his English, saying, ‘I am audible? Is my screen visible or not?’).”
Humorous Theories and Scenarios
The post also inspired a wave of funny and creative responses. Siddhant Prateek joked, “Kuch nahi, phone office mein bhool gaya hai, toh momos wale ko net banking se paise transfer kar raha hai (He forgot his phone in the office. Now he’s transferring money to the momo shop owner through net banking).” Another user suggested, “Maybe he lost his phone while traveling. So he is ordering food using his laptop.”
A Related Incident
In a related story, an Indian YouTuber visiting Los Angeles recently shared a post on X about his experience of booking an Uber and receiving a luxurious Mercedes-Benz S-Class. The sleek white car, parked by a wide road, quickly caught the attention of social media users. The post led to a flood of comments from Indian users sharing similar experiences in places like the UAE and Austria.
One user, an Indian YouTuber based in Dubai, shared a contrasting experience, recalling how he received a Maruti Swift Dzire instead of a luxury vehicle when booking an Uber Premium in Bengaluru. This anecdote added to the humour of the original post, highlighting the diverse experiences of Uber users around the world.
Social Media Buzz
The discussion around the techie working at the momo stall has sparked a broader conversation about the pressures faced by corporate employees in balancing work and personal life. While some see it as a sign of dedication and efficiency, others view it as a troubling indication of the blurred lines between work and leisure in the tech industry.
As the post continues to circulate on X, it serves as a reminder of the unique challenges faced by tech professionals and the varying perspectives on what it means to have “priorities sorted” in today’s fast-paced work environment.
