My wife had a coworker who was an absolute downer with this kind of shit. She had a little bit of authority over him, so her solution was to make a deal with him that at the beginning of shift, he had 60 seconds to get all of his complaining out of the way, and then they both promised to not complain all shift. Everybody on site immediately noticed that it was now more pleasant to work with him lol.
