If I was presented with the same issue I would have kindly asked for a few plates. I'd assume the waitress wasn't out to get me.

Issue resolved.

Took my glass to refill it when I had food. Normally I don't care for that, but she got the refill really quickly like under a minute. So I didn't count off for that either.

I'm certainly relieved that you didn't penalize the waitress for doing her job. Bless you.

Even my husband agreed with the tip(sometimes he is the one that wants to give less at times and other times I am the one that wants to give less).

All of this time I assume that you were the train wreck and didn't understand how you found another human being willing to tolerate your personality for more than 5 minutes consecutively, let alone a life time.

Who would have thunk that you were actually the voice of reason?

I asked for a lot of condiments and modifications to my order.

Have you considered that the problem might be that the items you order ALL require ranch? Maybe you should order a meal that doesn't require so many modifications?

But the servers expect a **PERFECT SCORE TIP OF 20%**, so HOW DO YOU SEE A FREAKIN DIFFERENCE? There is NONE! If they expect a perfect score tip, we expect a perfect dining experience or at least extremely close. So you go to a restaurant with the outlook the glass half full?

I go in treating the waiter as a fellow human being and am friendly. Typically I find if you are a nice human being you are treated nicely. Try it some time.

Your opinion of what a petty thing is may not be mine.

That was my point. You don't follow societal standards and should therefore expect that your expectations will rarely be achieved. You are the problem here.

Usually, there's NO REASONABLE EFFORT.

I find most waiters make a reasonable effort. I think it a you problem.

We had a waitress(I know you are going to say IHOP what I expect), but our bill was $18 and something cents once and the waitress billed us for $40 and something cents on our credit card probably rung up the wrong table on our credit card.

An $18 bill that they were likely to make $2 on, maybe as high as $4 if they hit a perfect score. That person is probably just trying to get through their day without murdering you. You should be thankful you got your slab of bacon.

NO, my husband's grandma received a free piece of cheesecake for her birthday with real blueberries(not sauce), so that's why I ordered that for my piece of cheesecake I ordered.

I honestly don't care about your cheesecake eating grandma. I'm frankly surprised you thought I would.

As I said before, I have never been a server

No way.

(just worked as counter help in a donut shop a long time ago),

Presumably to get free donuts?

but I know how to serve.

I'd respect you more if you put your money where your mouth is. Try serving for a week and report back your findings.

NO, you are just making excuses. I NEVER, *********EVER************** said "sauce" you IDIOT! STOP LYING!

You said sauce. 100%. You are lying. Liar.

When it's your money, you won't be so silly about it.

I typically don't spend my money on ranch and cheese cake, so unfortunately I won't have the opportunity to not be so silly about it.

so according to you I should have gotten better service. Did I? NOOOOOOOOOOOO!

According to me you should have a higher expectation for service the more you pay. It does not guarantee a certain level of service. You can't read, but then again, we already knew that.

The fact that you didn't get that level of service is your queue to pay less than a standard tip. MORON!!!!11111!!!!
