59. Maybe you should cook your own meals at home because no one is

going to be able to satisfy you. Much of what you are complaining about are policies from management not the server. Considering servers are waiting on several other tables than yours they don't remember everything an individual asked for so sometimes must ask questions. I doubt if you could do better.

As a former server myself, I can almost tell that you don't leave tips so are trying to justify your actions.

Next time you are dissatisfied take it up with the management. If they agree that you have a LEGITIMATE gripe, you might get a free meal.
