This. Honestly, wtf were they thinking? The wear pattern on my brake pads makes them look like lego bricks. Burton, you might also want to tighten your brake cables as well as changing the pads in the interim - if they're anything like mine then they'll be nearing the end of their travel out of the shop. It makes a slight but perceptible difference.
The main thing is to change the wheelset, though.
