This happened a few years ago at my old workplace. We had gotten more docs to process and as a result ended up getting behind the normal timeframe to process them. We have a meeting where management basically told us that we couldn’t talk to our coworkers about non-work stuff while on the clock/not on break. Basically they were blaming socializing as the reason why we were behind. This did not go over well with anyone. This was also the same meeting where management lectured us about keeping our desks cleaned, which made it even worse.
