OP here
I have no OCD diagnosis. It's hard not to look at something that is directly in my natural line of sight, just 3 feet away.
But anyone who's not a real-life Adrian Monk would either move the rag or ignore it.

Now that’s a pizza with a lot of fiber!

Our rags sit in heavy chemical between cleaning, but they do change because we clean up coffee spills. Does not mean it's dirty.
The busser has a smaller one in his apron and uses it after spraying alcohol on the table.
Can you imagine having to put the rag into chemical pot in between? He never gets the job done and his apron would be soaked.
Op, this is not the only thing that bothers you in life. I'd like to see a whole list of other things.
Thank you.

You should have asked to be moved or refused the table in the first place.
Yes, in hindsight we should have. I was trying to not be difficult right off the bat. The rag wasn't there when we were first seated. A server put it there after our salad and right before we got our entrees.

Between the initial OP and her responses I conclude she is nuts. You let a dirty rag (not on your table) ruin your meal out with you family. That is sad.

What kind of "real world experience" involves staring at filthy rags while you eat? I've worked in food service for years and have used cleaning rags myself on the job.
+1
Op, it would have bothered me. I would have asked to be seated elsewhere. I am pretty vocal like that.

If you pulled this when I was eating with you, I would never NEVER want to hang out with you again. I can't stand precious people who think the world should fold to their sensitive needs.
If you think a dirty rag 3 feet from your face while you're eating is acceptable, I'm sure there are many other reasons why we wouldn't be friends.
This is accurate. We definitely will never be friends.

Someone gets seated at the bussing station table. If you didn’t want to be seated there, say so.
Why didn’t you switch seats with your DH?
It wasn't a diner at the beach. It was nowhere near a beach and it was not a diner.
Why didn’t you switch seats with DH instead of making him do all your work?
Several reasons but most importantly:
His seat also had a direct and clear view of the rag. This was a very small space.
and also my husband does not like to sit on the inside of a booth.
