If a given person is actually happy (rare), then they normally have someone b!tching at them.
Take a look around!
You're right - a lot of people complain and pilots will complain no matter how good they have it! I guess my point is that Colgan guys ***** about not getting paid correctly month in and month out, having to do part 91 repos on top of their 121 flying, poor treatment by the management, etc.
People at my company ***** about only having 14 days off with 80 hours credit, payroll shorting them 8 minutes of pay last month, and having cockpits that aren't super clean.
It's not exactly on the same level of bitching-ness IMO.
