Default OT--Terrific employment news again

In article , says...
Showing Confidence in Economy, Employers Add 248,000 Jobs
By KENNETH N. GILPIN

Published: June 4, 2004


In a clear sign of improved business confidence in the economy and its
prospects, the Labor Department said this morning that employers added
nearly a quarter million jobs to their payrolls in May. As significant, the
government said that hiring in March and April was more robust than
previously reported.

With the revisions, nearly one million jobs have been created over the last
three months.


And the unemployment rate didn't go down.

What sort of jobs are we creating? High paying jobs or low wage jobs.

Not all jobs are created equal.
