Friday Humor: ExxonMobil finds a way to spend their record profits

What do you do when your company makes more money in a quarter than any other company in history... ever? I'm not sure, 'cause I'm certainly not in that position. Perhaps ExxonMobil, which is the profit-laden company in question, decided to play a trick on one unsuspecting customer of almost twenty years. Their dirty trick? Send him TWO-THOUSAND credit cards in the mail! Each of the credit cards had Frank Van Buren's name and account number on them. Unfortunately for Frank, the cards did not mean free gas for life, because there was still only the one account which all the cards pointed to. So, he was stuck spending hours shredding them all. ExxonMobil says that they are investigating how the mix-up happened.
