The recovery will commence at the end of 2016 at the earliest.

I’ve been looking for a job. Anyone seen the pay rates? Wow, they have really dropped a lot in the last few years. Quite a few offer only 29 hours. Thanks Obummer!

. . . the data did little to alter views the economy is regaining steam

That's because those views are based entirely on blind faith in the Obamessiah and have no grounding in empirical reality.

“the data did little to alter views the economy is regaining steam”

Especially from Obama sycophants in the media.

I’m in Retail and manage a Garden Center. We were up to our @sses in alligators this Spring, just trying to keep up with customer demand! 2K MORE paying customers through my store than last year...in an 8-week period! TWO THOUSAND PAYING CUSTOMERS! A lot of the new traffic was due to another garden center closing last year and our winter, which lasted FIFTY SIX MONTHS. *SMIRK* (Yes, it sure FELT that way!)

But, it’s over now. And though I have a NICE cushion to coast on for a while, MAJOR ROAD CONSTRUCTION is right around the corner for our city and life is going to suck for years to come.

And, yes. I am only ‘allowed’ to hire for 29 hour weeks, thanks to 0bamacare. I get a report each WEEK, so I can see who I have to cut back on for hours the next week. My best employees? Sorry. I can’t keep ya employed to any great extent. Half-@ssed employees that don’t care? Yep. I can ‘afford’ you now. (No, I can’t - Customer Service is going to suffer GREATLY!)

Nothing like blinding me in one eye and tying my hands behind my back and expecting me to still get the job done!

Thanks, 0bama!

(I do NOT blame my employer one tiny bit.)

I’m actually seeing “help wanted” signs more than in the last 5 yrs around here (Indiana). Lousy jobs no doubt, but signs not seen for quite some time.

A lot of them appear to be for truck driving jobs. My SIL’s Dad drives for Waste Management. He says most of the young guys who apply can’t pass the drug test and most old guys struggle with the physical demands of trucking.

People over at the Bureau of Lying Statistics (BLS) are going to be out their bonuses unless they pick up the pace for the “Summer of Recovery, Part IV”!
