Help me out here, maybe I am just really dense. If the average new unemployment claims are 380K and the new jobs is 80K, isn’t that a net loss of 300K jobs?

I think the 80K is actually the net change in employment for the month, i.e., it is the number of people hired minus the number of people who lost their jobs. That number is commonly called “new jobs” or “jobs created” but it is actually the estimated net change in total employment.
