Judge me for having their guest towed from my numbered space

I pay for space 12. The building painted the number last spring. My neighbor's sister parks there when she visits because 'it's only an hour' and because I work from home and 'you're not using it.' I left a note. I left a second note. I asked in the hallway. She shrugged.

Saturday she blocked me in after I had already loaded a borrowed van. I called the number on the garage wall. They towed her. She is now $280 angry and my neighbor slipped a letter under my door about community.

I have a photo of the painted 12. I also have a van I still needed that afternoon.

Their side

They would say I could have knocked, that towing a guest is nuclear, and that the building rarely enforces numbers. They would say I chose humiliation over a text.

Ask: After two notes, is a tow a boundary or a performance?
