Navigating my first job at Dunkin' with scheduling challenges and stress

I just landed my first job at Dunkin' after a long time away from the workforce due to personal issues. However, I messed up my availability and left it open until 3am, thinking I could manage it. I was hired for a shift starting at 9am, but I’ve realized that the buses don’t run early enough for me to make it in on time. My first shift is on Tuesday at 10am, which works, but I’m really stressed because they emphasized that the availability I submitted is a firm commitment. I’m torn on whether I should reach out to my manager now to explain the situation or wait until my first shift to bring it up. I have a lot of availability outside of the morning hours, but the earliest I can realistically come in is 8am. I just feel overwhelmed and didn’t anticipate this issue. I could really use some advice on how to handle this situation.
