no jack stand?  
no brake lube on the pads?  
no removal of the caliper sliders to inspect for corrosion, and re-grease?  
no cleaning of the caliper bracket and hardware to prevent the pads from sticking in the future?  
leave the old rotor without turning or replacement?

Seems like a typical second rate pad slap to me. Not impressed.
