Rule 308 is Mark...his reply isn't empty and he offers really good advise. At least I can read his lengthy reply, so try clicking on his reply again.
To answer your question about warped rotors, they become hot and do warp, especially if a caliper is sticking and it became excessively hot. You say 10K miles...is this after they were turned? If so, turning them makes them thinner and more apt to warp because they heat up faster and get hotter. Buying decent quality rotors is the trick...like Mark says, buy OEM...they hold their shape better. If you buy cheaper after market ones, they are less likely to dissapate the heat and thus they are more prone to warp, so in the long run it is cheaper to pay a bit more up front (rather than taking in your car often to have brake work done on them). In regards to how you dress and how a mechanic should do his job, I'm in total agreement with you...a job is a job and an ethically minded professional is not going to let anything get in his/her way of performing their trade as expected.
