Profit Reports

Nothing brightens my day more than hearing about large corporations making million dollar profits. Especially when it's an oil company, which I take pride in being a part of by spending 80 dollars a week on gas. Conversely, it brings me down when I hear the reports of profits being down from the previous quarter. Not that they didn't still make millions in profits, just that they did make as many millions as the previous quarter. In all seriousness, I don't have a problem with a company making a profit, that's what they're in business for. But when companies that practically steal the earnings of the everyday worker, then rub their profits in your face, then I get high blood pressure.
