Sometimes Alice needs coffee while Bob is using the microwave, and sometimes Bob and Alice do more than say hi, and sometimes that leads to a productive work conversation.

Carol and Dave do not need spontaneous small talk to be productive.

This makes Grace very angry. Carol and Dave are ordered to be more like Alice and Bob.

Carol and Dave do not understand this, and vent to their friend Frank. Frank says that he sees this happen a lot, and suggests that they come to work for his boss, Oscar, instead. Carol and Dave give their two weeks notice to Grace.

This makes Grace very angry. Alice and Bob agree that it is an outrage, then go back to discussing the previous night's sporting event.

Wendy is given Carol and Dave's workload and doesn't have time to join Alice and Bob at the water cooler. Wendy keeps falling further and further behind.

This makes Grace very angry. "No one wants to work anymore!"

Wendy has about had it with Grace's bullshit.
