I can't understand

I can't understand why I need to spend 15 mins every mornig chasing people to get in line for the morning assemble. Why the reluctance to be the first person in line, or even to get in line?
I can't understand why people cannot stand at attention and show some respect for their national anthem. Why they will continue to fidget, stand with their legs wide apart, hands in pockets or crossed in front (as though at a funeral), lean feebly to one side, crack jokes and laugh, talk among themselves and totally disregard their anthem?
I can't understand why people will come in a multitude of coloured and designs hair accessories when the rule says strictly black, blue or white?
I can't understand why people can work in a litter-filled environment. Ants are crawling along the ledges beside them, the floor is filled with used facial blotters, bottle caps, sweet wrappers and food containers.
I can't understand why groups of good friends can get so bored with everyday life that they try insulting each other to see who can sprout the most vulgar language. When words fails, tussle and push each other, and cat fights if they are girls.
I can't understand why there is so many rude people around. As I speak, they interrupt. The volume of their voices escalates till I have I have no choice by to shut myself up.
Everyday, I go to work in such an environment. It's uncomprehendable and totally ugly.
