Default Oil on a spark plug

I was driving down the road, and I felt the plug foul, so I pulled it and found oil on my plug. Whats Wrong??

I just picked up the car on friday with 80,000 on the engine that was built by a shop with a good rep. There should be no reason to why the walls, or rings are weak.

... put your beliefs in the trash until you get a compression tester.
