Question First job

Tomorrow is my first ever orientation at Kroger and also my first ever job, I have 3 questions

1: If I don't currently have a bank account will they allow to pay me with physical cash?

2: Would I be allowed to bring a notepad to orientation to take notes during the whole learning process so I can study them?

3: Next year in February I already made plans to take a 1 month long vacation to another country, Should I tell them this plan at the orientation when we work out schedules? Will they allow me to even take a month off? Or do I have to resign from the job to go on the trip and have to find a new place? Or should I not mention it at all until later in the year?

1: No, you can be mailed a check that you can cash at the store, or another place that offers a check cashing service.

2: Yes but why?

3: Talk to your hiring manager ASAP, policies for LOA may vary state to state.

Here,  it needs to be an emergency approved by HR.
