As a seasoned gamer who has spent countless hours immersed in the digital world of Twitch, I can’t help but feel that the debate between streaming and traditional 9-5 jobs is akin to comparing apples and oranges. Having dabbled in both realms, I must confess that each has its unique challenges and rewards.
In a video sponsored by McDonald’s, popular streamers Kai Cenat and Duke Dennis decided to swap their online gaming careers for a day on the job, reigniting the ongoing discussion between streaming and traditional employment.
Over the years, content creators have stirred up arguments on social media for claiming that streaming and making videos is harder than working a regular 9-5 job.
Various figures such as Hasan, Asmongold, and Plaqueboymax have drawn criticism following their assertions that streaming job is harder than typical employment because they endure a high volume of negative feedback and spend long, exhausting hours on-air daily.
As Plaqueboymax, I can personally attest that the psychological demands of streaming make it more challenging than your typical 9-5 job.

In a unique turn of events, two prominent Twitch streamers, Kai Cenat and Duke Dennis, found themselves resolving a lingering dispute by working together at McDonald’s. This unexpected collaboration came about following Kai’s viral advertising campaign for the restaurant’s Chicken Big Mac.
In the end, they both enjoyed their shift at the drive-thru, interacting with numerous customers while sharing smiles and chuckles. This amicable atmosphere led Kai to inquire about the debate between ‘streaming jobs’ versus traditional employment, with Dennis being the topic of conversation.
“You think this is harder than streaming?” Kai asked.
“Imagine being here all day,” Dennis replied.
Kai exclaimed, ‘To be honest, it’s absolutely chaotic here with the constant stream of vehicles, lanes filled and luggage everywhere.’
At six in the morning, when folks are heading off to work, you find yourself all alone there, Dennis went on.

The duo didn’t directly claim that being a McDonald’s cashier was tougher than streaming, but they did acknowledge that their lifestyle as high-profile influencers was significantly easier compared to the challenges of working such a job.
Just like any job, streaming has its advantages and disadvantages. For instance, in the year 2023, Ninja disclosed that Tfue’s previous Twitch agreement mandated him to stream approximately 250-300 hours per month. This is equivalent to working ten-hour days, from Monday to Sunday, each week, for an entire month. He described this as being “enslaved by his contract.
Contrarily, many streamers believe that their jobs are significantly less demanding compared to traditional 9-5 jobs. For illustration, a former professional Overwatch League player, Daniel ‘Dafran’ Francesca, abandoned his job as a construction worker after only two weeks, finding it “more challenging” than streaming.
In the year 2023, a woman gained widespread attention when she left her corporate position to join McDonald’s, but after completing a single day’s work, she broke down in tears.
