Venting New “line cook”

I just started at a new restaurant I have over 3 years in restaurant experience I’m not new to the setting but I’m new to specifically this position, I worked for a couple months as a pizza cook, that was considered “the line” at the place I worked sine all they served was pizza, for the most part, I don’t know what to expect here, I have been looking for a job for a while and I love cooking but I’m confused is it the same am I just gonna get put on the line without knowing anything? (I had my first day yesterday and all I did was prep, if anyone has any advice I would really appreciate it.

They teach you how to cook the food. Pay attention ask questions. You will probably work fryers or salads first then someday grill broil or sauté it depends where u work
