Sounds like the other personnel there are not sharing.
Yep. At my work, we have an internal voluntary (not so voluntary now) list of EV/PHEV owners, their plates and cars. We're very good about sharing and vacating spots upon request. Previously, our parking garage was so full, it was a big waste of time to free up a spot w/o a request first as it could take 10-15 mins just to find a new spot, and too many spots would be freed.
We also now have an EV valet service to go along w/valet parking (because of fullness at work). In some cases, the cars are taken to another lot that's a few mins away.

L2 should charge any car by lunch.
It depends on the starting SoC, the speed of their on-board charger, the max output of the EVSE and desired ending SoC. At my work, we have quite a few cars w/only 3.x kW OBCs: '11 and '12 Leafs, quite a few Volts and 2 Spark EVs. The Leafs seem to pull ~3.7 kW at 208 volts while the Volts seem to only pull ~3.1 kW. If one of those is low or at 0% SoC, it can take quite a while to fully charge.
And, Leafs toward the end of their charge (close to 100%) can spend quite a bit of time in the taper (balancing?) phase. If one only charges a Leaf to 80%, there's no taper and the charging rate is fairly constant until it's abruptly stopped.
