I appreciate your patience and attempt to explain this.
What we are left with is an unemployment figure that grew 0.2% I don’t think your explanation gels with that. 0.2% sounds small, but it’s a very large number none the less.
Look, I’m obviously no expert, so I’m not here to say you’re wrong. I still don’t understand what justifies the claims and figures here, and that’s not focused on you at all. It’s the reporting that causes me to say this.
Take care.
My explanation of the total jobs numbers is correct. The unemployment rate probably rose because the number of people seeking employment last month increased significantly. But I can’t tell you how the labor department estimates how many people are currently seeking employment. That seems like a number that would be very difficult to determine, but somehow they estimate the number of unemployed job seekers every month.
