Am I being over worked?

I recently got highered as a bakery clerk at Publix (1-2 months ago)and been working 2 days a week part time. I basically got no training so I can’t price cakes, write on cakes, take cake orders and answer the phone. I have basically been working closing shifts by myself since I got there, 1 week in manager said I’m closing by myself didn’t explain anything and basically just told me clean and after 4 hours everybody was gone. Since then I’ve worked shifts like 3:30-11 but everybody leaves at 6 so I have to take my break as soon as I get there. The managers keep telling me I’m lucky I’m even getting a break because they stayed past the time they were suppost to be there so I could get a break. Idk if it’s just me but it feels impossible to clean the whole bakery by myself…

Idk if it’s just me but it feels impossible to clean the whole bakery by myself while dealing with customers, I’m usually scheduled to 10:30 but often leave at 11:30 with still things undone. Do I get paid if I stay past the scheduled time?

I wish I had somebody else to close with me so I could get everything done at a reasonable time and customers keep complaining when I tell them nobody is here to write happy birthday insertname on the cakes. One lady even said I was worthless.

Idk if I can take this job anymore, this is my first job and it’s very overwhelming.
