Boss tells assistant to stop chatting with coworkers, she maliciously complies by giving everyone the silent treatment: 'You told me to stop talking to people [...] So I did'

Being a Chatty Cathy is a blessing and a curse in the workplace. On the one hand, people do tend to enjoy the humorous personality in the office as well as the person who's simply easier to talk to than most. That being said, if you're the type of person who cannot read social cues or understand when a conversation should end, your coworkers are going to avoid having to chat with you at all costs. 

We feel for this Chatty Cathy because it does not seem like things were entirely her fault. Other people tended to confront her all the tine, hoping to have a conversation. So when her boss told her talk less, she decided to comply albeit maliciously. The difference was noticeable and everyone started to wonder what happened to Chatty Cathy. Eventually, it got back to the boss and he had to ask why she was so quiet, in a full circle moment.
