    No but you could gain a greater understanding of their needs. You can always learn the job on top of that. Oyster probably don't need much convincing anyway.

      Gravel is basically free already. The real cost is putting it where you want it to be.

      I mean that is the best pill. It's like inheriting a free quarry. I could instantly undercut every other quarry and would not need to maintain any of the crushers or land to provide any type of gravel.

      I'm definitely choosing that one for sure.

        You wouldn't be though. It's 10 hours younger looking (presumably than your actual age, so it doesn't stack)

          That may have a very adversarial effect on health

            Okay, I'll bite this time.

            1. Don't see any use.
            2. Sell gravel. Become rich.
            3. If no cooldown you can spam and teleport anywhere as long as there's a path between A and B
            4. Not sure.
            5. Turning on every toaster in the world at the same time would probably cripple the various power grids globally.
            6. If it stacks you could look quite young.
            7. Could probably make some money checking if safes are empty or not. Doesn't say anything about distance. Could remotely check containers for people. Depends as well on the definition of empty.
            8. Would be hugely beneficial to some archeologists.
            9. For anyone who is unable to walk currently this would be good. What happens if you cut your legs off? Can you fly afterwards?

            If you pick 9 and then cut your legs off, you'll have the ability to run as fast as Albert Einstein with his legs cut off could.

              Imagine how fast that guy could go if he devoted his life to building performance accessibility aids instead of pursuing physics. He probably would have robotic cybernetic legs that outperformed any human runners.

                  Teleport 7 inches away easy lock in:

                  Teleport up 7 inches on a generator perpetual motion machine.

                  Walk through thin walls / safes.

                  Repeatedly teleport forwards never have to walk again.

                  Teleport out of bed every morning.

                  Teleport out of clothes at night / sexy times

                  Look cool AF.

                    I would be the Gravel King. You need gravel, you come to me. I would be a benevolent king though. I would grant gravel to those that need it.

                    It doesn't say the quantity, though. It might be a very small amount every so often. But, if that's not the case, and if we also get to choose where the gravel appears, then I'm using it to construct a man made island out in international waters.

                      Yeah, the devil is in the details. Is there a cooldown? Are there quantity limitations? Location could be interesting because you could put ten tons of gravel a mile high and drop it. You could have Nasa pay you to quickly assemble a compacted gravel mini-moon at a lagrange point for a space dock.

                        Ah, but like teleport 7” it doesn’t say it’s not repeatable. To be fair though on second reading it does look like a one and done offer.

                          But people are. Even if the door is the thickness of paper, if you teleport 7in through it then youre still telefragged

                            That'll just give you another 10 hours because the doctor will say you look fine.

                            There’s nothing about not being able to use the power over and over again either immediately after you use it or after a less than 10 hour delay. Just repeatably spam the power to reverse your age.

                              Unless your body is less than 7 inches wide, all but the first and third one of those is going to involve nightmarish scenarios of walls, clothes, etc. getting stuck in your body.

                                You know what happens if you suddenly double the number of incompressible molecules in a given area? I don't, but I can imagine it would be explosive.

                                    Or maybe you get gravel in the same sense that someone could own Jupiter or a star. "You now own all the gravel in that quary!" But it doesn't inform the workers of that fact, or the officials who still rely on whatever paperwork was filled out by the agents of the guy who paid them to ensure the quary belongs to his corporation's corporation. The whole idea of ownership is pretty abstract in the first place.

                                    Could be that every pill just means that, under the jurisdiction of the entity who made the pills, you are legally allowed to do what the pills claim, though you need to figure out the rest from there, and people from other jurisdictions are able to disagree even if you do figure out the how.

                                        Does momentum reset after a teleport? Could I jump off a cliff and teleport left and right like going down stairs?

                                          3 would get you through almost any door. Definitely my choice.

                                          7 though, this would make you a star in the DEA. Imagine seeing inside everyone's tires, and then you find one you can't see inside. "Whatcha got in those tires, son?" I'm sure there could be other uses.
