This is not normal. Note that both the front and rear wheel alignment needs to be checked.

Once I found a slightly dragging brake pad causing a pull to the right, so that should be checked as well. Jack up the car as if to change the right front tire and confirm that with the car in neutral the wheel spins freely to check for brake drag.

Lastly, there are a lot of shops that "do alignments", but not a lot that do the job thoroughly and correctly.
