No Whine For You

Someone should do something, is one of the most tiring and overused phrases.  It’s a classic example of wanting to whine but do nothing. I started countering people when they start the “Someone should do something” rant.  If you have a complaint, bring a solution.  Talking about stopping someone in mid-whine.  It’s easy to take potshots from the sidelines.  Change requires work and involvement. 

My personal view is if you do not have any idea how to change something to make it different/better, don’t complain.  The reality is the someone is you, and the something is getting involved.  If you want to help a chronic complainer, call them out and get them involved.
