Congrats on the job! A friend of mine was an assistant manager there while she was at school. She's sweet and atypical, and she said she liked it.
I managed the front end of a small cafe for a while and handled all the register transactions there. Using a cash register is really easy once you get the hang of it. It's all routine. And sometimes the registers have cheat-sheets if you forget what to do (like if someone pays with a check, which almost never happens these days...).
Probably one of the things you'll also have to look out for too is kids nicking stuff from the shop, but you're not "really" expected to catch anyone, just pretend like it's important.
Have fun!
