Complete agreement. It doesn't have anything to do with age - I've had 50 year old seamen bitchin' about doing stuff that was specifically mentionned in their job description.
It's just a way of life. It's raining? Bitch about it. It's sunny? Whine about it. Working too much? Whine whine whine. Not working enough? Call the Whaaaaaaambulance.
Heck, I do it, too, on occasion...
Occasions being pretty much every day.
