This happened to me once, The right hand slider(fork leg) is split with bolts clamping it to the spacer on the axle. In other words it's not actually located in it's correct position.
Lift the front wheel and undo the clamp bolt or bolts and slide the fork leg to it's correct position. You may need to use a straight blade screwdriver to pry the fork leg apart to move it.
I'm surprised it doesn't happen more often, and the guys at that tyre shop must be MORONS not to know about something so obvious.

Sounds like a spacer issue, they sound like complete idiots, I would def. be shouting about that, I mean is it that hard to put the wheel back on the way you got it, sound like a bunch of monkeys
