SQL Server 2012 monitoring Average Lock Wait Time is critical always

Monitoring is critical to staying in business, but that has to be balanced against pounding the people responsible 24 hours a day with "Critical" alerts that in my experience are not critical.  To be specific the "Average Lock Wait Time (ms)" is constantly alarming at a critical state and sending out alerts.  It is sending so many that I have caught myself tempted to not even look at the alerts, this would be bad because if I got an alert saying a SQL Server was down and I did not look at it.... well you get the idea. 

 

For now, I will remove this metric from the SQL Server template.  If tech support can prove their case that this is a real metric (that my 15 years of SQL Server experience disagrees with) that should be included, I will need a better threshold setting other than what comes with the module we bought.
