1. Or, "Hi! I make $2.13 an hour! May I bring you something from the bar?"
It's my life, and it's uncomfortable.

4. Sorry for the teaser

7. It's cool, I've just not known where to look

5. www.bls.gov - Bureau Of Labor Statistics
Note that of the 248,000 jobs supposedly created in May, 195,000 of them are fictitiously created by a computer model called the Birth/Death model.

The BLS has no proof that these jobs actually exist.

8. Good point . . . Americans know if their economic world is improving,
This one isn't . . .

The Repubs can spin it all they want, the economy still sucks for most people.

10. Interesting - I wasn't aware of this
is this the same computer model that classes me as having stopped looking for work?

I need a job desperately!
