Don't really believe their numbers. Job losses were 92,000.
This is great news.
More outrageous lies
I say this will be revised downward when the real numbers come in.
If you have the right skills & know how to crush a job interview, you'll get a job, even in this rough economy.
Love the denialism on this comment section.
This is good news for the US economy and I think it will get even stronger over time
As a person in the business, there are jobs out there.The only problem is that there not for entry level positions. We need more entry level positions for high school and college graduates.
"Thats not normal"
YEA YOU THINK USE YOUR BRAIN FOR A SEC PAL. BOOKS ARE DEEP FRIED
I almost spit out my comical glass of milk. where we not net negative 92k in feburary?
Lies Lies Lies!!!!!! Sooooo many lies for years about available jobs??? What jobs??? Can each job support all the costs of house ownership, vehicle payments, every insurance need, food, etc etc etc??? Absolutely NO JOB pays enough for the costs expected by all the corrupt businesses…banks, etc etc etc. Uuuug 🙄😵💫🤯
Lies lies
A roller coaster
I'll believe this data when I have a job.
-178,000 jobs*
Fake numbers and lies. All the interviews I went to had 30 people trying to get 1 open job. I'm still unemployed
Specific groups have been disproportionately and significantly impacted, so why are they hiding the numbers based on gender, race, and age? Gen Z has double digit unemployment rates! Unemployment rate for Black Americans has been up between 7-8% since Jan.2025, when the national average has been around 4%! How can you address these issues if you are not reporting that they even exist. These mainstream media outlets are leaving out critical data because it looks bad and it's ridiculous. PBSNEWS seems to be the only one raising the alarm and calling out the red flags happening right now in the job market.
Fake news 😂
Over the past year I've learned these reports are just projections and will be revised down in two months. Idk what's even the purpose of these headlines
100% LIES!!! trumpstien has his yes man in place. And is trying everything to spin his disaster in his favor!!!
lies all lies
Trumps admin fudging the numbers
Yeah right! 😆 this gonna be the biggest revision!
NOT REAL NUMBERS, MAGA NUMBERS
