This ground controller is a douchebag. "Advise where you enter the ramp"? Is this ICAO Level 99 or something?
Not sure what your meaning is here but at most large US airports the ramp is nothing to do with ATC. It's a totally seperate operation. Therefore, they (ATC) need the aircraft to tell them by which taxiway they are expected by ramp control to enter the ramp area. Different countries, different procedures.
