I don't think you're weird, I just think you come across as the type of person who will complain about every single thing and also expects praises for every single thing.

Isn't this a place where I can safely vent my frustrations. I know I whine a lot here, but that's kinda the point of venting.

You can "vent" all you want, that doesn't mean people are going to agree, are going to respond a certain way, or are going to coddle you. Plus even if you're just coming here to vent and, as you said, "whine a lot here," hopefully you can learn something from those who respond.

As an aide (mental health / CNA) - I'll take the extra help any time I can get it. I don't care if it's for a shift or a year.
