If you don't get affected by her just ignore her along with everyone else and she'll leave eventually if she hates it enough or she'll start working harder and try to make nice with people.

This sounds like good advice; it seems to me that the co-worker in question is not long for the environment, especially if she's complaining every time she has to do some extra work. If you're feeling like this, chances are some of your co-workers may be as well.
I'd give it a bit of time though; if this is the first time she's acted up like this, maybe it was just a couple of bad days. If it's recurring behavior, though, and you and your other co-workers are getting stuck with the after-effects, someone should go talk to the manager (maybe a group of people).
Good luck with everything - we all know what it's like to be frustrated with a job, co-workers, managers, etc.
