I've found that it's easier and more beneficial to complain about my problems than to do something about them.  For example, I work in an uncomfortably hot environment:  It's about 78°F.  This is unlike my previous complaint about working in an environment that's entirely too cold (around 66°F).  I have a pretty good feeling that if I said anything about the temperature, stupid actions would ensue. 

Me:  It's kind of hot in here. 
Dr. Stupid:  I'll turn on the air conditioner.

The problem with this "solution" is that it's a solution to the symptom.  Air conditioning fixes the symptom of it being too hot.  But the real solution would be to fix the problem itself.  The problem is caused by the heat being on too high on a cold day and there being no way to control a specific room's temperature.  So the real solution would be to turn the heat off when the room reaches a certain temperature.  I believe there's a magical device that does this by sensing the gravitational pull of Jupiter during high tide and incorporating the molecular weight of uranium-238.  It's called a thermostat. 

So instead of voicing my concerns to some idiot who won't and/or can't do anything about it, I'll just voice my concerns to the internet:  Teacher, mother, secret lover.
