"... Automatic Data Processing ADP said payrolls increased 91,000 in September, compared with 89,000 in August, which marked a slight downward revision from the initial August print of 91,000. ...

And normal average population growth in September was 150,000 plus 125,000 new legal workers were brought into the country.

Ignoring questions about the +3,000 jobs such as are they full time, what do they pay, that makes payroll jobs at a net -272,000.

I'm thrilled! /sarc
