Very low steering fluid - '10 - E91

Had my 2nd oil change last week (along with a scheduled service check ) and today I noticed that the steering was very stiff. Checked steering fluid and it was maybe 3mm above the bottom of the stick. Not even to the first mark. This was on a warm engine.

There are 38,000 miles on the car. I'll be adding the CHF 11 tomorrow. No big deal but is it common to burn through this stuff?

Also, I realize the car doesn't run itself and I should be taking a more active role in monitoring fluid levels, but shouldn't something like this get noticed at the dealer?
