Need help reading alignment sheet.

Hey guys just need some feedback about my alignment sheets. So yesterday I went to get alignment bc my car was steering to the right and the steering wheel was a bit off. This is the first sheet. (first attachment) and whatever they did still didn't fix my problem.
Went to get alignment today at a different shop and it was much better, but my question is about the rear camber difference. I don't have any adjustable arms but is curious to how the left and the right on the first sheet says -3.6 on both sides and the new sheet that I got today says left -3.0 right -3.5. Should I be worried about a .5 difference?
Steering is straight and car feels better to me.

Were you sitting in the car (or was someone) during the first alignment? 0.5 is a pretty big difference side to side, but I'd be more worried about the total amount in the rear than the difference. Unless you need that much camber to fit your wheels under the fenders, that's way too much. I'd get some LCA's to adjust it back a lot. If you're going to stay around -2* up front, I would aim for about -1.5* in the rear.

no one was sitting in the car during both alignments
I'm on bags, but was just a little confuse on how I got the .5 difference and should I be concern about it without any lcas.

If you're on bags, they probably didn't adjust/settle to the same height both times.

I wouldn't worry so much since you're going to be at different alignment settings at different ride heights and you'll probably never be at this exact height again while driving.
