Ah yes. There is that. Much fluctuation. OTOH you can teach the ones who make it. If 5€ are worth their while is another matter. But if the whole house with all people teaches them the same way, poor delivery minion learns: good house!

This may sound sarcastic, but it is how it is. I don't envy the subsubcontracted delivery people, and I fume at the thougt of privatization, outsourcing to the lowest bidder, while their websites proudly present meaningless labels praising customer satisfaction, trust, reliability, whatever, while their hotlines are useless. But again, that's just how it is. I can't influence that shit. Except by 'tipping' the scale of the stressed, overworked, and time pressured person towards that 5€ dangling before his eyes, if package is delivered to my door.
