keep being called into work, with texts from my bosses begging me to come in due to the store being in "dire straits". I nearly always say yes, but today, for just the third time in a year, I said no. I always end up either coming in on a free day, or extending my shift. Should I be grateful for the extra hours or stick to my guns?

Stick to your guns. Your free time increases in value exponentially the less you have of it.
Maybe try to negotiate a salary raise if you do go back.

Well...depends on how you look at it. Because you say no people know they cant take advantage of you but because you say yes a lot you seem dependable. Good attitude in a work environment

Do you need the money and extra hours?
Could you stand it if your position split into 2 part-time positions?
It's not your job to make sure all hours are covered, that's the boss'job - but he will end up screwing you if can't make it work as-is.
