Idk...normally I can't stand Ted but isn't it kinda normal to bitch about your job/colleagues? Even at a job you love, it's not gonna be sunshine and daisies every single day. Sometimes you DO go through a rough patch where you have nothing but shitty days. And if you can't bitch about it with your partner, whom you're supposed to share stuff with (the good AND the bad) then what's even the point of being together? I don't understand the concept of a relationship (romantic or platonic) where you can't talk about anything but good, fun, happy stuff and there's a limit on how much bad stuff you can share before it gets annoying.
