I have utterly no idea what the ramifications of this are.

Are outsourced jobs included in these figures?

Outsourcing creates jobs too.

A new U.S. data series released on Tuesday by the Bureau of Labor Statistics

I stopped reading there. I'd rather count office buildings for lease or note how much tobacco is left in thrown away cigarettes than listen to the pathological liars at the BLS.

Me neither, yet.

Don't know. New report to be studied.

Perhaps for lack of having conveyed a properly constructed English request, to date?

In other words, 7.2 percent of all jobs in December 2002 did not exist three months earlier

What does that mean? That you've added a salesman to your staff? That you're a new company and are expanding into a new field and need an entirely new staff to support it? That you laid someone off 3 months ago and just re-hired them?

Or maybe that you've had to hire on a security guard to protect your stuff from former employees that you've just canned?

I and a lot of fellow freepers have had plenty of chances to be 'fresh'.

'Stale' is better.

Lots and lots of confused workers and 'general ed' majors.

It sounds like it'll make it difficult for some -- and perhaps a lot of -- workers ever to draw a retirement check from an employer.

Who cares? Just blame free trade anyway.

Thank your local congressmen for the mandates legislated for 'full time' employees.

Everyone everywhere better be making their own plans for retirement. Unless they intend to work their whole lives.
