Your way of seeing things is not necessarely bad ... if everybody accepted everything "as is" then there would be no progress.
I do get frustrated easily as well, over little nonconsequental things. What helps me alot is to vent it somewhere ... in my journal ... this way I don't bother everybody with my endless ranting and raving. Then, once the "anger" is appeased, its easier to try and see other options.
I guess my point is its ok to be dissatisfied with things that happen ... so long as the frustration doesn't blind you to possible solutions. Try and channel the frustration you feel in more constructive things like trying to fix things to make them the way you want.
I'm an ISTJ myself...
