8.1%

Clearly more & more people are maxing bennies, falling off rolls, or flat out giving up.

Only explanation for such a miss in jobs creation, but yet a lower percentage unemployed. I just hope most regular folks connect the dots on those numbers.

BLS=Bullshit Labor Statistics. According to the government we are in a "recovery", there's no fallout from Fukushima, and the war on terror is over. U-6 (unpublished) labor unemployed number is @ 14.6%. The discrepancy is such that if I were a auditor I would cease and desist the labor department's book-keeping department and force the duties of tally on the Mickey Mouse Book Club. At least then I wouldn't be pissed every time a completely massaged number was vomited onto the public forum of propaganda. Morning M'Lady. And how art thou this fine shiny morn? You're beauty is wonderous in the morning hues of sun-swept fire. Makes me wanna river-dance.

So WTF is up with the AC hounding you about "intelligent" responses? Man, if I had a dime for every dumb ass schtick on this forum, I would be on the sailboat everyday sucking on mai-thais living the dream. I wonder if that douche has ever newb'd his dumb ass over to the advanced search portion of the GLP forum for some research? Hell even easier check out your past threads near the profile section? I'll wager that it all looks like cuneiform to that particular AC. I know it's really hard, but at least he/she could get someone to translate for him/her. Hope you're well. Revbo has been kicking asses and taking names round here and I've been sitting on the curb clapping as he walks by. wink

Hope the sales meeting went well. Condsidering the length of the conversation, sounds promising.

Effin Trolls...The meeting went fabulously. I really feel confident that they are going to buy at least two of my pitches soooo, it looks pretty positive for a NC relocation. At least I wasn't really done un-packing from the last move so I'll just move the boxes and totes again. UGHHH! I'm a cheap bastard so it's gonna be really embarrassing moving pink totes across two states. chuckle See you soon M'Lady.

BAD: JOBS REPORT MISSES BADLY AT 115K, UNEMPLOYMENT DROPS TO 8.1%! UPDATE:

It's a miss!

Just 115K new jobs.

That's well below the 160K that was expected.

But unemployment rate fell from 8.2% to 8.1% and last month was revised from a gain of 121K to 166K.

Other key numbers:
The underemployment rate has stayed flat at 14.5%
No improvement in weekly hours.
Average hourly earnings grew 0.2% month over month.

Markets have ticked lower on the news...

AC the math doesn't lie. There's just no disputing that mathematically we are turtles on our backs screwed.

I for one, respect her in a way you will NEVER comprehend, so I offer this. GTFO if you don't want to listen to what she has to say. Go find someone else to glam onto like a fucking leach, but for the love of tits stop attacking her. Her motives are to help those that choose to listen. You choose not to listen, so mind your fucking business and go do whatever the fuck it is you do when your not trolling around like the smartest rat with downs syndrome. It's beginning to reek of a monumental crush.

I figured this was coming after the Holiday hangover.


I'm surprised they lasted through March.

I knew April was going to be bad.

Unfortunately the average brain dead American watching American Idol and Real Housewives and Dancing crap only sees the unemployment numbers and thinks things are getting better.

Too bad they represent the masses.

I think they're going to buy two of my pitches. They said to go ahead and plan on coming up here around the 21st and they'll pay for the relocation. They want to check a few of my references and as long as they check out (and they will) they will call me sometime, not next week, but the first of the following to confirm and set me up for relocation. I'm a cheap bastard, so I'm slightly embarrassed that I'll be riding across three states with pink totes. chuckle Sooo all in all I think I'm set for the next three years.

Re: BAD: JOBS REPORT MISSES BADLY AT 115K, UNEMPLOYMENT DROPS TO 8.1%!!! HALF A MILLION PEOPLE DROPPED OUT OF THE LABOR FORCE!!!
What people fail to consider the drop in unemployment is due in part to all those who have lost unemployment benefits. In California alone during the month of May as many as 93,000 will lose unemployment benefits and be dropped from the statistics and join others living in tent city obamavilles.

Further aiding the obama administration's unemployment statistics is the number of people applying for and receiving disability all on the taxpayer’s dime.

Labor Force Shrinks As Jobless Swell Disability Ranks
Had the labor force not declined, unemployment would have been 8.3% in April, instead of the 8.1% reported.

That same month, more than 225,000 workers applied for Social Security disability benefits, and nearly 90,000 were enrolled, according to new data from the Social Security Administration.

90,000 Californians to lose unemployment pay in May

California’s longest-term unemployed — as many as 93,000 — will see a cutoff in jobless benefits in mid-May because the state no longer meets the federal threshold for emergency aid.

California’s longest-term unemployed — as many as 93,000 — will see a cutoff in jobless benefits in mid-May because the state no longer meets the federal threshold for emergency aid.

Do you know what the biggest diagnostic classification is for people getting disability? Mental Illness.

wow, i wonder how many people are getting SSI for "depression". I'm not talking about people who really suffer from it to the point where they can't function, but people who know doctors who can write them phony reports, etc. I'm sure a lot of people are gaming the Social Security system...but honestly, when there are no jobs what choice do people have? it's either that or crime, and to be honest, i'd rather people be getting some income from the govt than to be totally destitute and out there tempted to rob people

8.1%

Clearly more & more people are maxing bennies, falling off rolls, or flat out giving up.

Only explanation for such a miss in jobs creation, but yet a lower percentage unemployed. I just hope most regular folks connect the dots on those numbers.

What have you found in the numbers?

I would say based on what I hear that employment has gone steadily south since last year. There is no recovery in the offing, home prices are tanking, and there are no living wage jobs.

Everything about this particular President is a fiction, including his 8.1%

What people fail to consider the drop in unemployment is due in part to all those who have lost unemployment benefits. In California alone during the month of May as many as 93,000 will lose unemployment benefits and be dropped from the statistics and join others living in tent city obamavilles.

Further aiding the obama administration's unemployment statistics is the number of people applying for and receiving disability all on the taxpayer’s dime.

Labor Force Shrinks As Jobless Swell Disability Ranks
Had the labor force not declined, unemployment would have been 8.3% in April, instead of the 8.1% reported.

That same month, more than 225,000 workers applied for Social Security disability benefits, and nearly 90,000 were enrolled, according to new data from the Social Security Administration.

Yes, and did you know the majority under mental disability are alcoholics and drug addicts.
