He has no right to do that especially when the rules to and OX are plainly stated that you get 1 freebie, $500 on the next one and then the boot on the third (unless they like you). The only time I know of backing in cars is for upsell reasons. That is about it.
The reason for the backing-in rule might be this: Enterprise employees might be expected to be better at backing up, particularly after some practice, than the customers are, so let the customer have the easy job of pulling out of the space by driving forward. You might reduce the total number of scrapes that way, particularly in a tightly packed lot.
