We all pay for our spots, one way or another. Pretty sure Seinfeld is paying for the spots he parks all those Porsches he keeps in his Manhattan warehouse...So you'd be cool if someone parked in your driveway and went to the house next door, leaving you to park on a busy street?

"How do you like your Juke? When are finals??"
Too funny. That being said, a reserved space is just that - reserved for whomever pays for its use. The OP goes out of his way to take care of his car and we can all relate to that. Should he have left a sign? Maybe yes, maybe no. At least he didn't flatten her tires, so he gets points for gentleman-like behavior.
We presume the Jukette can read, so she might have known she was breaking the rules, or she is a complete airhead who is oblivious to no parking signs.

The issue is indeed with management of the lot. They allowed a daily tenant to park in a paid monthly spot. It's up to them to move the car. I personally wouldn't have put that on the car, as it accomplishes nothing.

Well, the reason it bothered me is that I only drive my car on nice days, and I don't want it to get dinged up, so I'm careful where I park. The guys who park on either side of me at my office work with me and are super careful not to open doors into my car. In addition to the fact that I pay for my spot, when I have to park on the street or in some other spot, I have no clue who's going to slamming their door into my car. I worked hard to be able to afford a 4 year old 911, and I'd like to keep it nice if I can. So it's no so much about having a "special" spot. It's about having a "safe" spot, where I feel comfortable leaving my car.

Personal attacks, huh? I like people like you who suffer from herd mentality and feel obligated to cry in unison with another man's trivial, first-world "issues". Lol.
