"Discussing out of work activities" I can buy, as I've been distracted many times by people doing exactly that (a constant feature of open-plan offices). But hot drinks? Come on. One has to stay hydrated, and in a typical office job, also caffeinated. Making tea is my break, during which my brain rests, and sipping that tea helps me stay concentrated. Not being able to do that would easily drop my productivity by 50%.
