So everyone loves a good moan especially the British you can't move for someone moaning in my town and it’s hard not to slip into a good moan every now and then or have a moan about others moaning all the time, but where do you draw the line with people, friend and family are easy to tell to shut up but what about clients and customers.

At what point is it unacceptable to be moaning in someone’s presence and potentially impacting someone elses health. We all know being in a room with a negative person can mentally and physically drain you, it’s a fact and other people are more sensitive to it than others, some are blissfully unaffected but for others it’s a real drain to be around a miserable **** for hours especially when it is relentless.

This week at work I had a customer who spent 3 hours in my company and not a single minute went by without him moaning, that day I’d already had an unusual day taking a relative to hospital but was pretty zen like throughout the day doing what had to be done. By 9pm after having spent the evening with this **** I was completely drained and shaken out of my zone, its so inconsiderate to offload that crap on to someone you barely know, you are making the choice stop f'ing moaning about it, this was beyond anything ive ever experienced and I've got some whiny friends and family. It was the most full on, relentless interminable moaning ive ever heard I just wanted to deck the **** after 3 hours and I am not one for violence.

When will we accept the impact on others health that interminable moaning has? When will it become bad etiquette to engage in such behaviour, I'm starting now, hoping I can plant a seed and encourage others to call others out on their destructive behaviour and hopefully save the next generation from this mind disease. Forget about this virtue signalling about plastics and what f'ing words we can and cannot say. Moaning is the real issue of today, moaning causes stress to both parties, stress is the root of all distortion in the body causing illness.

Moaning Kills

Stop it Now!

Moaning online is soft moaning, you are not experiencing the full impact of someone in your vicinity giving off negative vibes and you can walk away from it. Moaning online is a breeding ground for future moaners in real life though.
 
So was it really approx. 3 hours of incessant moaning or are you one of these people who are so full of themselves that even 5 minutes of the conversation not about you is oh so boring?
 
There is a woman at my work that thrives on moaning, her normal response from people is adulation and attention.. From me i tell her straight and tell her to "shut up, nobody cares about your problems, everyone has crosses to carry and **** going on in their lives, dont like something? change it. Stop airing your dirty laundry for all to see"
..Annoyingly it made her massively attracted to me.

Why are you attacking me, It was from 6pm to 9pm, I'm just doing my job minding my own buisiness, I never talk about myself at work.
 
I think its funny. Always laugh when people constantly moan about something, i work in the publics eye so part of my job is getting moaned at and explaining that there’s nothing i can do to help them and they dont actually understand how what they are moaning about actually works.

In effect they arent qualified to moan :)

We need more of you

Same here, I deal with moaners every day and have nearly two decades of experience doing so but the point I was making is where is the line, there comes a point when the moaning is so full on and effecting your personal space its entering the gronds of impacting you, I have a moan sheild, but this guy tore it down and trampled it.
 
I had an interview once where the interviewer spent the whole time moaning about the previous person i would be replacing. Basically saying he was lazy and rubbish. I swiftly ended the interview, contacted the recruitment agency and said i'm not interested in the role if this is how he speaks about previous employees.
