Is Boost+ just a ripoff?

You should see the pathetic Boost+ offerings we get around here. Most of the time they're shrink-wrapped around the airport - literally only that zone is covered, and at the airport you're ONLY allowed to wait at the taxi stand.

Generously, however, they do include the runway. Yeah, I remember all the times I picked passengers up at the *hangar.*

When they do include another zone, it seems to be at random. Four streets on a peninsula and a square mile of ocean. A long uninhabited byroad and twenty acres of open field. A football stadium at three AM. It's like they're throwing darts at a map.

A couple of times I've deliberately tried to get Boost+ pricing. (I'm still at a point where I can sort of experiment. Let me tell you, NOBODY needs an Uber at 2PM on a Monday afternoon around here.) The app started frantically flinging cheap rides at me - six in about two minutes - and then started sweetening things by offering them again as "exclusives," this time with the payout ticking upwards. Nope, I said, I'ma try this Boost+ thing just to see if it works. I went to the airport, parked, and didn't get a single ride.

Questions were raised.

So has anyone had any success with this initiative? Is it glitching? Or is it just in this area?
