That's ALWAYS the case. I'll park in bum-fuck Egypt when there are a dozen free spots by the door, come out to find the car wedged between two bigass trucks with the pointiest doors imaginable. WTF.

When I have to park next to a car, I always examine their door jams. If they have scuffs (or as is all too common, other cars' paint) on them, I will get back in the car and try to find another spot.

I take precautions to park far away too, but man, many of you take it to a whole new level! Retaliation for a door ding?! Life's short, dings happen. Find a good shop to repair them, and resume sleeping at night.

Count your blessings even as you try to avoid such clueless types.
Cannot always avoid them unfortunately.

Ask me what colour the vehicle was that nuked my mirror cap.

At least it was a good excuse to get CF replacements. I also now fold the mirrors.

That's one big hammer. Some art really serves no purpose.

I used to have this problem until I moved up the corporate ladder and got a reserved spot.

Looks like you didn't move too far up the ladder as you still have time to post on the forums at nearly 1am on a Sunday night. Hope you were at the office bright and early to set a good example for your minions.

OP - I guess the theme of this thread has turned into "try harder in life". What do you think?

I haven't moved up far enough yet to have a private spot. Guess I'm just a peasant.

I was at my desk at 7:45am this morning (1 hour commute as well) .....because my sleep schedule is similar to a Giraffe's.

I drive an SUV 80% of the time as my daily and this doesn't happen but for some reason it seems to happen when I drive the M3, does that mean people do this on purpose?

Just show up 10-15 minutes earlier and you'll have access to all the good spots. My coworkers consistently complain about the parking situation every morning yet they absolutely refuse to show up a couple minutes early to claim a good one...

I get to work at 8am when the parking lot is almost empty. I always manage to get the corner spot with no one to my right. But no matter what I do there is always some moron that parks too close. It's always a different person too. But hey what are you gonna do? Can't control what happens unless I stay posted next to my car all day but then I wouldn't have a job.

Serg87. Work harder. Based on the logic set forth i this thread, the higher you are on the corporate ladder, the larger your parking space.

8am just isn't cutting it!

Post pics of your parking spot today!

Funny - compared to some of the people who drive into my work in their Lexus's and 4wd Range Rovers - the M is quite compact

Somone like me would walk by and laugh , but I can imagine a hybrid driving hippy getting his hemp jocks in a twist about it.

what do you do for a living where there is 2 M drivers???
