Spent the day reviewing 1,000+ resumes. It's heartbreaking to see people with master's degrees working retail; people with 3+ current jobs; people who've applied to 1,000 jobs with no luck. Everyone deserves a good job. But 44% of jobs are low-pay, with a median salary of $18k.

That’s why unemployment figures mean so little. It’s not just how many are employed; it’s what kinds of jobs they’re employed at.

Yes, the GOP love to brag about creating jobs that suck. Unemployment numbers also omit people who need work and have stopped looking.

I think unemployment should be based only on people making over 30k before taxes. If they don't make that much, consider them unemployed as their job is not able to sustain a basic level of living in the majority of major cities.

they should get stats on how many jobs per individual that would be interesting.

Exactly. I tell.people all the time I dont care about the jobs report, those are cherry picked numbers. Show me a report on people that can retire and retire comfortably
