$36.1 BILLION FUCKING DOLLARS...PROFIT

I fucking want to kick somebody's ass...don't care who's..but somebody's...Maybe a clerk at the closest exxon/mobil station...just walk in jerk him out from behind the counter and kick his ass, then tell him to pass it on...
This is the biggest profit anywhere for any company EVER......FOR FUCKING EVER...biggest...BIGGES T FUCKING PROFIT EVER......GOT THAT...BIGGEST FUCKING PROFIT EVER....and why? why do you say...? why? Because they are greedy motherfucking assholes....was going to call them cocksuckers, but that is something I have been known to enjoy and don't want any form of enjoyment associated with them fuckers...Thanks to my favorite newspaper ....THE DALLAS MORNING NEWS.. I have this information to make me crazy when I sit alone in the house which is a tad chilly but won't turn on the heat as my heat bill tripled and will fucking freeze before I give them greedy mother fuckers any more money than I have to...ok...how about these stats..:
exxon/mobil made $36.1 billion in profit in 2005 on revenue of $371 billion.
The revenue is a bit larger than the gross state product of Georgia, and it's about 42 % of the gross state product of Texas.
Exxon last year brought in 30 percent more revenue than all of the Wal-Mart and Sam's stores in the world, which had sales of $285 billion.
Exxon's revenue is large enough to give all of the 296 million people in the U.S. $1,000 and still have money left over.
Exxon's profit is enough to buy the entire towns of Irving, Carrollton and Farmers Branch(every piece of commercial, residential and business property listed with the appraisal district) with enough money left over to buy most of Mesquite.(cities in Dallas area)
Exxon last year was almost seven times as profitable as the entire U.S. airline industry, ever. Airlines made $5.36 billion in their best year, 1999.
And if that isn't enough to chap your ass, go to sooner's blog and see what the Saudi's built for their citizens....I am going to go now...quietly out into the yard...where at 1:35am my little town is sleeping peacefully....and I am going to stand tall, lean my head back and scream as loud as I can.....(which is prettty fucking loud)...
IM MAD AS HELL...AND IM NOT GOING TO TAKE IT ANY MORE...YOU GREEDY MOTHERFUCKERS...
and I will turn my back on the yard and drop my drawers so they can kiss my ass....
fuck me till im a gusher...

okay a tad concerned that you may have popped a major blood vessel.

Isn't dropping your drawers whilst shouting "I'm not going ot take it anymore!" giving out a mixed message?

Seriously though, couldn't agree more. The fuckers need some serious smiting.

Such a great shame. It makes me think, WTF can we do?

Oh but those poor oil companies are strapped because all of those oil refineries that need to be brought up-to-date and everything. And those pesky little insurgents keep messing with those oil wells over in Iraq.

Yeah it fucking blows. We Californians have been taking up the wazoo for years without so much as a thank you or a jar of vaseline. I just paid $2.69/gal. And that was the cheapest I could find. Ten bucks gets me about three or four days of one trip to and from school.

The capper is that Exxon Mobile is fighting to get all the money back from the court settlement of the Exxon Valdieze Spill. $5 billion.
thats just pocket change to them. Remember, the type of accounting that big business uses is designed to hide much of the profits by calling them expences.

hehe tell us how you really feel, Jac.

'Course, I kind of like the "take this ass-kicking and pass it on" concept...

Watch the blood pressure Jackiesue... not that I am a fan of oil companies, but that is how my dad brought home the bacon for his family. Working for one of those oil companies for 25 years. And my step-mom too. Of course, they were both under-paid and never saw any of the profits from the bastards. But it put food on our table.
Shall I go hang my head in shame now that my secret is out? I'm an oil brat... But hey, living in Texas, chances are a lot of parents worked for an oil company at one time or another. And probably were screwed by them as well.
I think I'm going to invest in a horse driven wagon.

this isn't something you feel strongly about, i see.
it is fucking ridiculous. things like that just aren't right from a moral standpoint. just not right.
i hope you did scream in your yard. loud enough to wake your neighbors and them have them waiting for another scream and worrying about it till they can't fall asleep again.

Lisa said...

Yeah I worked for ESSO (EXXON) for allmost 5 years, and I can tell you this much. If not for missmangement at the local level, profits would probably be even more................Can you imagine.
