    I shouldn't think they'd expect you to be able to work the day after you 'officially' get the job, and if they do then saying "Sorry, it's too short notice but I could definitely start next Saturday/Monday/whenever" should be okay. On the whole it's pretty unlikely, but if they do then hope it's for before 6!!!

    Good luck :)

    If the manager has any common sense then I think they will have had the staff rota done for Saturday already. If he wanted you to work it would be training etc, which you will probably do first anyway.

    Unless you were a late applicant then I would assume you would start the weekend after you got the job. You could have asked in the interview when you would have to start though!
