Isn't bitching part of the essential nature of humanity? In the military they actually teach you to be on the lookout for a soldier that never complains -- it's a sign that something's really wrong with them.

Like the old saying is,

"Don't worry when they are bitching. Worry when they stop bitching."

This is true. Hmmm, maybe I should mess with my co-workers by NOT bitching
