That usually means that it's getting low again. You have a leak and it really should be repaired. Repeated recharges will lead to compressor failure eventually.

OK, so you're telling me that someone broke into your engine and stole your pressurized refrigerant?

If you're trying to get an answer, then maybe you should stop playing like you know something and listen. This is a sealed, pressurized system. The only way you can be low on refrigerant is by someone removing it or you have a leak and since you recharged it once already, you do have a leak.
This shop wouldn't be the first one that couldn't find a leak. It's a colorless, odorless gas and it takes a lot of experience to locate a leak accurately. It is very common for a GM vehicle to get warmer on the driver's side when it gets a little low. Have it leak checked by someone that knows what they are doing.
