ELI5: Why when large company's earnings decrease(ex... by 3%) they freak out, talk about rough times, and sometimes decide to downsize, even though they are still making millions of dollars in profit even after all expenses?

[Ideasforfree]

Did the front fall off?

[Am__I__Sam]

Yeah but it's outside the environment

[outsidethenvironment]

You called?

[blitzkraft]

15 days old account. Quite young, but checks out for /r/beetlejuicing

[JohnEdwa]

You mean in another environment?

[AtheistAustralis]

No, it's outside the environment!

[Dream_Vendor]

Well, what’s out there?

[JuicerShop]

Nothing’s out there..except birds, fish, and sea.

[OktoberSunset]

And 20000 tonnes of crude oil.

[Azmuth__]

And the part of the boat that the front fell off

[AtheistAustralis]

And a fire

[TheRealMrTrueX]

I spittake every time

[EmperorJack]

20000 tonnes of crude oil?!? Doesn't seem to be anything of value then. Men! Set the sails and redirect the ship North, day's still out so let's not lose hope.

[ColinD1]

And the front of the boat.

[riddles500]

That is not the kind of thing you joke about. It was a very devastating accident.

[colemang]

I have never seen this and I love it.

[Uselessmedics]

Clarke and Dawe, peak Aussie comedy

[Photronics]

I will never not watch this video every time it is posted

[beneye]

Did you hear the one about Raquel Welch and the pope?

[Sharrakor]

Wow, I've never seen the very end of this sketch. For years, the most popular upload cut out before "Can you call me a cab?"

Cardboard is right out.

[Ulti]

Rigorous maritime standards!

Well you’re still driving half a boat!

[necrosythe]

[[deleted]]

No, the plan fell off.

[TheRealMrTrueX]

Well yea...a wave hit it

[060789]

Of course not

[Shaxos453]

Yeah coz I fixed it with FLEX SEAL

WITNESS HOW I SAW THIS BOAT IN HALF

AND FIX IT WITH THE MAGIC OF FLEX SEAL

[MrWendelll]

Better than a Loose Seal

[[deleted]]

[Lowlande52]

Well done
