strange... My daughters boyfriend, hopefully her husband at some point, works 3 jobs.. part time at one graphic arts company, part time at another one, and he delivers pizzas.. he makes more money delivery pizza on the weekends, than he does at his 2 other jobs...
my point is, he does what he has to do...
I know many others who are holding out for that 100k job. They had the cool job, and now won’t work for 50k..... In my loose circle of friends, I know 7 to 10 such people..
There are folks like your daughters boyfriend out there and to them, I tip my hat.
I’m just ticked at the constant manipulation of data to make this admin look better than it is.
I’ve heard that the actual unemployment rate in CA is near 20%. I don’t remember the source, but they were counting all of those not full-time.
I can’t help but be skeptical that this rate is being purposefully held down by including those who wouldn’t have normally been considered as “employed”.
There are lies, damn lies and statistics.
All the best to your family and your “future” SIL. He sounds like a fine young man with a good head on his shoulders.
