kvetchers
People who grumble
Kvetchers are people who complain persistently and often about minor matters.
The word comes from Yiddish and carries a tone of affectionate exasperation—kvetchers aren't necessarily wrong, just tiresome in their grievances: The kvetchers in the office found something new to gripe about every Monday.
