Exclamation New problem!! car won't start at all!!

Hey guys, i just had my car's front brakes and drive belt done by a local import auto shop yesterday. I got the car back yesterday afternoon and then i drove to work and back home yesterday. Then i noticed one of the interior dome bulb was out and so i drove my car back to the auto shop to get a free bulb and they gave me one. So i went to the auto shop parking lot where my car was parked to change the bulb and after i changed it i put the key in key hole and tried to turn on the car and when i turned to ignition the car just kinda moaned and died out on me. Then i thought that i was out of batteries and so the auto shop owner gave a jump start from a jump starter kit thing and that didnt work at all. i tried to turn the car on again but the key goes all way to ignition but the car is quite and not turning on at all. Tried the second key but no luck. Now the car is just sitting in on the auto shops parking lot . The weird thing is that after i got the car back from the auto shop i turned it on about five or six times!!! So PLEASE can anybody tell what is wrong in the car?? I love my car and she is my baby!

My thoughts are that 1. the starter motor is gone?? or 2. when they were doing the drive belt change they must have forgotten to connect something (fyi... i was kinda hurrying them to finish it because they said the car will be ready for me to take it to work but they got little late and so i was hurrying them a little)?? So PLEASE HELP ME!! I am very worried because i just spent money to change the front brakes and the drive belt and so i am worried that this is going to be an expensive fix!! The auto shop couldn't help me today because the mechanics are not scheduled to work on Saturdays and Sundays and they only come back on Monday. So the owner couldn't help me today and so my car is in the parking lot there. He said he will take a look at it on Monday.
