    What's weird is when you go to the grocery store and there's ONE FUCKING LINE OPEN with a checker. That's weird. Same with some pathetic place like Home Despot.

    The funny thing is you actually believe what was reported.

    Dig deeper?

    Weird that I was in my favorite sandwich shop yesterday at the noon hour and they had TWO people working. Heard the dude on the phone tell a customer it would be 1 1/2 HOURS to get his sandwich delivered. Totally believable numbers. If you're a gullible stooge.

    Of course, there's always the possibility that the lazy asses that have been sitting at home collecting gov't cheese have finally been forced back to work.

    This is what it should be, we had a pandemic with millions laid off... if it wasn't the case it would be a huge question and truthfully, it should be even higher if Biden had done a better job.

    The slobberer really doesn't do numbers and sh*t worth a damn. At lunch at the Thirsty Lion by Washington Square yesterday. It was pretty busy, but not packed. First semi-full restaurant I've been in since early March 2020 and the first that actually had a full menu and seemed fully staffed. Any place that was busy was having the existing staff running ragged. Lots of places closed because of chi com crud requirements on positive tests.

    While unemployment numbers also ticked up. So that could only mean one thing.

    It looks like Kobe and his lazy family went back to work. Let’s celebrate!! Now he doesn’t need grandpa Joe and the US tax payer buying his meals for him.

    You realize we’ve been in a labor shortage for the last year right? Glad you’re caught up, dumbass.

    In Oregon, you only need a high school degree or a GED to be a substitute teacher. They’ve dumbed down the employment requirements to a point where Kobe might even qualify for a mail route.

    Kobe you ignorant slut …

    Leading up to the release of the report, all messaging out of the White House was laying preemptive cover for a shitty report blaming it on COVID

    There’s a massive disconnect between what we’re observing daily and the numbers …

    And for anybody that understands this stuff the disconnect very likely lies in people not active in the workforce (it’s how the unemployment rate is so low) creating labor shortages

    And it also explains the small rise in unemployment even with a large job growth number. It’s almost as if Kobe can’t connect the dots between handouts from grandpa Joe and workforce participation. Not surprising though, he is a whiny cunt after all, who happens to also be a gigantic moron.

    So we’ve got fake numbers, the numbers are actually bad and should be better, charts and graphs, sandwich shops and joobs. Got it.

    I respect that you guys recognize how important consumer confidence is and your willingness to lie to try and keep it low. I don’t respect that you’ll gladly harm the country and the workers to do it though.

    Where I work we had our best year ever last year and this year is off to a better start. Anecdotal evidence is valuable, just ask the guy that makes your foot longs.

    No, the numbers are not fake, you just haven't looked at the data that shows we're still in a deep hole from the jobs lost from the massively stupid policies implemented by Biden. You can use your bias any way you like, but the numbers don't lie.

    Oh we’re doing that thing where we pretend 2008 was Obama’s fault, now this is Biden’s fault. Gotcha. The buck stops to left to the left.

    This is where you see the goose stepping morons come out of the wood work parroting what the elitist rats want them to parrot.

    There are almost 5 million people who aren't working now that were working in 2019. We are employing 5 million fewer people today. Is it nice that the jobs report shows 400K? Yes. Is that something to crow about? Absolutely not. This administration has kept more people out of work than any administration in memory.

    That is 100,000 people per state that were employed 3 years ago and are unemployed today. A medium sized city in every state where the entire population is without a job.

    We are nowhere near normal, the 4% unemployment figure is totally false and comprised of billion dollar bullshit. I read an article not long ago that proved this admin was counting dual part time job individuals as two people employed. Rat pols will lie cheat and steal to get their desired result. When rats are in charge the populace is the least aware with zero transparency and all messages and data are manipulated. You just can't trust these assholes.

    The unadjusted number of jobs recorded went down, dropping from 150.35 million in Dec to 147.53 million in January, a 2.82 million drop in jobs. Through a record seasonal adjustment (there always is a seasonal adjustment this month…just happens that this years was magically way larger than ever), long-term (10 Year) population “adjustments”, and some other changes the bright, nonpartisan folks in the govt somehow get an over 3 million job positive adjustment applied to a measured 2.8 million job loss to create a “great” jobs report (that will be revised downwards in a few months because they will need the count then…)

    Believe it if you want, but realize you are gargling garbage. Should also note it also removed a bunch of “jobs” that were already reported to have been generated last year, but who’s counting…

    Dude … you really don’t get it

    Understand how the metrics are calculated and defined

    For the unemployment rate to increase given the job growth, the only way for that to happen is for the growth of people re-entering the job market to outpace the actual job growth

    Additionally, all of these numbers are subject to revisions in the coming months and we’ll see how the adjustments work out … COVID has increased the volatility of those adjustments

    Congrats to your company but you’re comments aren’t defining what success looks like. If you talk to people that are tied into hiring activity they would tell you that it’s a really tight supply market … but what would I know

    Finally, since you brought up consumer confidence, it’s one of the more important leading indicators for me. It’s important to note a couple of things IMO:

    1) There appears to be a strong correlation between confidence and perception of the COVID outlook

    2) Despite recent upticks at the end of 2021 levels are still lower than pre-COVID levels

    3) Killers of confidence tend to occur during periods of inflation and recessions … the inflationary concerns are real and will become more pronounced as the effects stretch out throughout the year
    So Kobe’s a dumbass?

    Did all these jobs numbers come WITH Covid or FROM Covid?

    How many of the jobs had one or more co-morbidities?

    No, we're focusing on Biden's terrible policies that have gutted entire sectors of the economy. Multiple members of his cabinet supposedly focused on getting the economy back on track have sounded like idiots when talking about inflation, the price of gas, and the supply chain crisis. Small businesses are fucked and mask and vaccine mandates are killing the economy.
    If we really do want to bring up other presidents, if Trump or some other republican were president now, you'd point out the same thing, that the economy cratered and that stupid rules and incompetence are not helping it. There are always going to be some 'new jobs'. We should be able to call out incompetence when it's obvious. I thought you were better than @HHusky or other people that want to make it a Dem vs Republican thing.

    Kobe thinks it’s completely cool when businesses put out reminder signs asking customers to “be patient, kind, courteous” to those showing up to serve them.

    You’re an idiot Kobe.
