Data Type: ALL EMPLOYEES, THOUSANDS
You see, employees, not hours. You have to look at the chart, not the page above the chart.
Ref: post 343. Yeah....Thousands of all Manufacturing people employed.....steady...has nothing to do with wages. That chart shows like monthly totals of 17,121 (times 1000 - implied basically: 17,121,000 bodies) currently employed in all manufacturing jobs, not administrative, tech support, engineering, though even in a manufacturing facility. That’s the rest of the numbers I would like to see, if not, what’s Uncle Sam hiding? Serious.
