But if I'm being taken advantage of, I at least like to know it. It doesn't look like the company was "mis-behaving". And again, it wouldn't much matter if they were. I just like to know where I stand in the matter. Thanks guys, you've answered my questions. Happy flying, all.

Chuck,
The most correct answer is that they could have put you on short call at 0544 (attempted contact 1944). 10 hours. 0730 is outside this window. The scheduler was saying "help out" because he was giving such late notice and being polite. I've seen this.
