Janice entered the room for the scheduled morning meeting, immediately noticing something was off. Her usual colleagues were sitting around the table, but one seat had been occupied by a large bear wearing a suit and tie.
Janice was taken aback by the sight, but as she looked around, she noticed everyone else acted as though nothing was out of the ordinary. Not wanting to cause a scene, she cautiously sat down and did her best to act as if this was normal. As the meeting began in earnest, she noticed the bear nodding at the right moments, pretending to take notes, and even attempting to join in on the conversation with deep-sounding grunts, but despite its best efforts, the bear's awkward movements and vocalizations became increasingly apparent until Janice could no longer ignore them.

"Excuse me," Janice finally spoke up for all to hear. "Is that a bear?"

The room went silent, and all eyes turned to her. Her boss responded, "Is what a bear, Janice?" 

"There, that right there," said Janice as she pointed at the bear.

The room fell even more silent as everyone started to look uncomfortable. "Janice, that is not funny or at all appropriate." Her boss said in a serious tone. "Apologize to Mr. Bearnard immediately."

"No!" Janice said with desperation in her voice, gesturing at the bear. "That is a bear! Don't you see it? An actual bear!"

Janice was stunned when her boss shouted back, "Get out, Janice! And don't bother coming back!"

Janice sat, flabbergasted, but soon gathered her belongings and stormed out, feeling angry and confused. As she exited the room, she heard her boss continue, "Sorry about that, Mr. Bearnard, now let's continue," as a deep-ruffled roar was replied.

Janice left, wondering what had just happened and how no one else seemed to notice the bear as she questioned her own sanity.
