It's closer to center after the bike shop guy tweaked it or whatever he did to it, so it doesn't look quite as bad now except for the flat tire part.
It's still not perfectly centered though.

Maybe this is just me, but if I had a customer return (repeatedly?) and had to tweak the forks; I would throw in a flat repair for the trouble... The first time.
This smells like a
serious LBS internal communications/disgruntled employee/bad customer relations issue.
