If I had to guess, it's by having typically 6-figure salary delivery drivers replaced with near minimum wage gig workers.

But yes, I've also noticed when my package ends up in a completely different building on the other side of town because of missed cardinal direction on the address. Our office manager has working relationship with the office manager on the other side of town with an address similar to ours because of how often they have to trade wrongly delivered/addressed packages/mail.

Looking at Glassdoor and a couple other Google results, the median is closer to $50k than >$100k for Fedex and UPS, as well as USPS. Though the point stands that gig workers should save money, even if they mess up fairly often.
