Looking at the compression #'s and the misfire counts, I would park the car outside overnight and remove all of the plugs and the fuel pump fuse (pull the fuse while the car is running so it empties the fuel rail) Screw a compression tester into #4 and test it in the morning when it is cold.
The shop most likely drove the car into the shop and then tested compression. I have done a few of these, and you will be surprised how much better it runs when fixed.
