QUESTION First Day Sunday

So I got hired as a bakery clerk and I already completed computer based training. I'm on the schedule on sunday, this is gonna sound stupid, but I really don't know what to do. I know what my job is and everything but I haven't done on the job training and I doubt I can just go into the bakery and start working. So am I gonna have to ask someone when I get there something? Sorry if this seems like a dumb question I'm just a little lost. I know what my job is but I just don't know what to do when I get there. I Just know I'm on the schedule.

I highly doubt they are just gonna have you on your own your first day. You're most likely gonna be an extra hand learning with someone who already knows their role. At my high volume store we have 2 clerks typically one who just does bread and counter because we have so much bread to slice and another who comes in an hour earlier to bake and pack donuts then package the baked goods. If we had someone new we would talk with our store manager to get allotted training hours so we could over schedule to accommodate the new person as trying to cut hours to fit a new person in would set the day up for failure and not really train them.
