YOU CANNOT RECORD PROFIT LOSS AS A LOSS.

Just because you made 8 billion last year and you made 6 billion this year dosent mean you “lost 2 million” you just didnt make it, you greddy sons of bitches.

I hate big oil so bad.

Actually lost revenue like that is a loss you dolt. When you forecast an expected profit and then miss by a mile, it pisses of shareholders and they sell effectively de-valuating your company and your stock.

Edit: I would expect a “boss” to understand this principle.
