Good Morning Heidi,
The job loss report released this morning is of no real surprise. I have found that while all news outlets ( even local ones) are reporting and commeting on the job loss report. the local media otlets are quick to include that local state job loss and unemployment are not as high as the national report. When In reality, the unemployment rate is really much higher than what is being reported.
Keep in mind that after you have exhausted all of your states unemployment beenfits you just fall off the rolls. the unemployment rate is actually much higher than what is being shown and reported. In think that the unemployment rate is much higher that 10 %. Try more like 15% or higher . That is the REAL REPORT.
Good morning Heidi – You mention severe cold ???? How about MINUS 36.4 F in Winnipeg – now that is cold!!!!
