Warrrreagl, sorry you had such a crappy evening out! You made it out to be a great story though!! I hate places that are great sometimes and then fail miserably....sucks

But ya gotta love IHOP!
I am a waitress. I work in a Coney Island/Burger Joint (pretty much fast food) part time and have done so for over 11 years off and on. I have high standards for myself as waitstaff and I most definatly expect the same from people who are going to serve me food.
I hate seeing fingers in water, I truly hate people who wear thier pens in thier hair and then use the same hands to grab my food, or use the same towel they have been wearing all day and leaning onto every surface with to constitute 'washing thier hands'. I have seen all of this done in one place of business in one night believe it or not! GROSS! I had a coke and left before I bothered to look at the menu. Also depending on where I am, I will make sure to get my drink in a 'to go' cup to avoid finding nasty milk rings and what not left at the bottom of a glass. I'm weird like that I guess...but after so many disasters what else can one do!
