How often do you leave your desk?

I’m an AN1 at a BB (GS/Baird/JPM) and I feel a little self conscious because I’ve been leaving my desk really often to pee, poo, get snacks, drinks, coffee but my co workers seem to always be glued to their desks. I also leave every day at around 7PM before some of my VPs but no one has said anything.

Is this just what BB culture is like now?
