Did this autobody shop half ass my repair?

Ok so I had these pretty decent rock chips from an active construction zone that I went through on the highway awhile back. Anyways, I took my car to this one autobody repair shop in my local area and the next day after dropping it off, I get a call from the guy saying that it was already done and ready for pickup. I was surprised that he was done that quick. Well, I pulled up to pick up my car and was immediately disappointed in the results. It looks like someone took a $40 paint marker from Walmart (one of those paint markers that claim to be an “exact match” to your cars paint color via the paint code in the drivers side door) and called it a day. I asked him about it, and he said that it was the best he could do. See, what I don’t understand here is that a few years back, a friend of mine backed into my car and thankfully, she was willing to pay for the damages and so we took my car to this one other auto body shop in my town (in which I really wish I had just gone there instead of the one that I’m writing this post abt) and they did an amazing job and made it look like my car was never even hit to begin with. So, considering that very body shop was able to make the rear of my car (which was the area of my car that my friend had backed into) look brand new again when it had suffered a dent + a decent sized gash mark from my friend while this other body shop here is claiming that “it’s the best they can do” over some rock chips just doesn’t sound promising. Believe it or not, this place somehow has 5 star reviews…

The pictures I added above are the pictures of the rock chips that got “fixed” after it had gotten repaired.
