    Hi, I'm doing research on pain points in the trucking and logistics industry. I would really appreciate if you guys could answer the questions below. Also would be very helpful if you could put your position and company in response so I could quote you properly (you don't have to do this but it's helpful).
    1. “What’s the most manual process your team deals with?”

    1. “Where do mistakes happen most often?”


    2. “What keeps you up at night operationally?”


    3. “What do you still track in Excel that you wish you didn’t?”


    4. “What software do you hate but are stuck with?”


    5. “What breaks when volume spikes?”

    “What compliance tasks feel risky or unclear?”

    Can someone translate that into Trucker, please?

    What's a "pain point"? Is that where the chiropracter pushes when my back is out?
