Default Scraping on rear rotors?

This may be normal, and I'm just paranoid, but I don't think it is, and neither did the guy at the shop that looked at them.

The problem is the rear rotors look like they are being scraped, kinda like how it happens when the pads get low, but I don't think the pads are low. I took some pictures, don't mind the surface rust just got done raining. I took it around the block after I took the pictures and it's all gone now. But the scrapes are pretty obvious, and they are deep enough to where you can feel them by running your finger across them.

I have some new pads that will be put on tomorrow morning, hopefully that'll fix it. If anybody knows what the problem may be please let me know!

This is the back left side (left side if you are behind the car looking at it). First is a picture of the rotor and then the pad. The pad's are hard to get a picture of, but if I need to get a different angle let me know and I'll try. Notice the choppy looking part on the pad/caliper.

And the back right.

Thanks in advance for any help/knowledge!

Sorry for the massive pictures. I figured they would show it for best clarity.

My rear rotors are like that. No problems and they have 47,200 miles on them and they have looked like that for a while now. (about 2 years).
