I used to do the eat at my desk thing too because I was so overloaded with tasks and I would just eat for 10 min and keep working. It took me far too long to realize I had been allowing myself to be taken advantage of, especially given that my salary was far lower than the market rate. Don't be past me... take your lunch, it's yours!
I ate at my desk because I didn't want to interact with most of my coworkers in the breakroom. I had my PC locked so I was out of contact the whole time though.
There were some positive aspects of eating at my desk for sure. Not needing to talk to interact with the large amount of in the cafeteria as well as not losing my parking spot if I left to lunch in the middle of the day were some reasons.
Several months ago my manager wanted us to track our time throughout the day. Part of it was to assist with load balancing where if person A spends 80% of their time doing reports and doesn't have time for other stuff while person B only does 25% reports then some can be shifted. But the bigger portion was because Person C pretty much did fuck-all all day and played on their phone, but that's beside the point.
After about 7 months the manager started to phase it out and said we don't need to. Overall I didn't mind because it helped me track the day and keep me a little more engaged. But the biggest reason I do it is to better track and manage my true time. If I start the day a little early and don't take a full 30 minute lunch, you bet your ass I'm slipping out a little early!
