Sabbath as in Friday night to Saturday night or just Saturday daytime?

Depending on where you live in relation to a company's freight lanes, many places are able to accommodate those who observe a Sabbath or religious 'rest' day. Some can further manipulate freight schedules to accommodate you, but there are many specialized carriers who may not be able to make it work.
However, do not be discouraged if your needs and a company's needs do not line up. There are over 300,000 trucking companies in the US, and one is sure to be a good fit for you. Just make sure that is something you discuss with your recruiter up front, to avoid wasting your time and creating an awkward situation right after you finish orientation.
