Venting to your manager seems mostly counterproductive to me. I'd argue rather than vent you should at the very least identify the problem and potential solutions.
Even in scrum, when doing a retro, they don't call them "negatives" but "deltas", implying don't just complain, look for a solution.

Exactly. If venting can be converted into identifying a problem and looking for a solution, then it can a good thing. Venting often? There may be a larger issue to tackle here.
