Standing Desks in Office????

So WFH has made me realize just how life-changing standing desks are for me (maybe because the quality of my chair but I doubt it). I get way too much discomfort/restlessness/pain in my home chair.

My question is with now things heading back to the office, do banks have standing desks at all? I would highly doubt by default any bank has them and I'm guessing I would have to somehow request one? I'm not even sure who to ask, but more importantly being a new first analyst this might make me stand out in a bad way?

I obviously don't have much social capital or anything yet at the firm and being the only person with a standing desk might not be a good look? I'm kind of desperate for a solution as I don't think I will be able to work for many hours sitting in the chair.

Please any help

 

Okay sounds like more banks than I thought have them, but still haven't seen my place be mentioned. Let's hope this becomes more of a norm in the industry because nothing good can come from sitting in a chair 12+ hours a day healthwise

 

At a bank which has standing desks all across.

I was just an intern but honestly standing desks make such a big difference in my attentiveness. I would stand up and work every time I was on a long ass call or after my lunch/dinner or late at night, all times when I would be really drowsy. Standing up instantly kicked out all the sleepiness.
