scheduling outside of availability

My current employer has always seemed to do right by me, as far as hours and scheduling goes, but because of the holidays these past few weeks have been screwy.

I am part time and work the same 4 days every week (Sun-Wed). I have other responsibilities which prevent me from working the other days.

Responsibilities, you know, like life.

Because of the July 4th holiday landing on a Monday, the shop was open the prior Friday (typically Sun-Thurs), but closed the Sunday for the holiday; some people were asked to work a few hours Monday(Holiday) to help finish up, and then resume regular shifts on Tuesday. I then requested Wednesday off (3 weeks prior), and that would end my week.

So, Sun-holiday, Mon-extra hours, Tues-Normal, Wed-PTO

The week prior I worked my normal hours, which weren't affected at all. I was also asked to help on Monday(holiday) since I have done it before and know what the process is, regardless it is still one of my scheduled days so I don't mind either way.

I was then told I was expected to work the previous extra Friday, with no heads up.

Then, the Thursday after my PTO day on Wednesday.

Thursday, which I never work, I was once again expected to work with no heads up.

AITA for telling them to shove it?
