Who Hired In October: The Full Breakdown By Industry

Tyler Durden's picture




 

We know that 271K jobs were added in October; we also know that workers 55 and over got a whopping 378,000 of the jobs (this was the biggest montly gain for this age group since January 2012, a month when total job gains were 380K, the third highest since the crisis), while males aged 25-54 lost 119,000 jobs. But who was hiring in October?

Below is the breakdown of select industries which, according to the BLS, were most active in October hiring. The breakdown:

  • Education and Health: +57K
  • Professional Services: +54K
  • Retail Trade: +44K
  • Leisure and Hospitality: +41K
  • Temp Help: +25K

And Manufacturing workers: +0

In short, one more month where the bulk of job additions went to the lowest paying jobs, including teachers, waiters, entry level professionals, retail trade, and temp workers, while the US industrial economy continues to stagnate.

Visually:

 

And here is the breakdown of waiters vs manufacturing workers since December 2007: the former up  1.5 million; the latter down 1.4 million.

I see Durden got his formers and latters mixed up, but I get the drift.

"Leisure and Hospitality: +41K"

Equals prostitution?  Prostitution is on the books now?

these are based on surveys folks. They painted a picture to give the Fed cover to increase rates.

 

One fly in the ointment will be black friday sales. Since th eonly growup increasing jobs is the seniors, it means they are keeping their jobs or this is one big false report (which is a good likelihood)

 

In any event, rememebr when CNBC woudl report companies  reportign quality profits? Well they do not do that anymore.

 

Amd this is not a quality report. But themedia does its part in sucking it up

Rehab. I know a judge who sentences nonviolent drug offenders to rehab and probation with strict guidelines if their crimes are nonviolent. He says there is not enough room in Texas prisons if he sends the nonviolent ones there.

I wonder at the loss in information. I could hire 10 Software Development Engineers today if I could find them. There are thousands of open reqs across the company. I wonder if we that number would budge if there were enough Americans/Westerners to fill the high-tech roles.

Increase your salaries 50% and those positions will fill in little time.

Yeah the value and therefore price of good software engineers just keeps going up.  Juniors fresh from college with decent GPAs make just under 100k and if you are not paying 3-5 year 'seniors' 120k+, they are gone.  Good senior/architect starts at 150k.

Agreed I got several open tech positions I can't fill even with H1-B's.  Its one area doing well cause its end game is to remove workers from the process.

The thousands of open reqs are a justification for companies to complain they can't find anyone and then hire an H1B for half the price. I'm sure the 200 from Cal Ed and the 150 from Disney who were just made redundant with H1Bs at half the price will come work for you.

 

Such crap.

kw2012, Good one!
OT, but taxes also work in this inversely proportional manner. I recently got a property tax bill for my mountain land that had an increase of 1,337% (not a typo). I told the clerk that I know the people up there, and that if they were doing that to everyone, all she would be able to  see through her window would be pitchforks & torches. She replied that they raised mine to full market value, and that they were doing the others' at a rate of 10% per year.
To that I replied, "so, in 133 yrs, my neighbors can pay the same rate I do"?
It was a "Sprint" moment. (could have heard a pin drop)
They dropped my taxes back down.

who believes this nonsense anymore. 

 

do you really believe the job reports?

 

these numbers are just faked and pulled off desks to please the bosses. the lies will continue as they do in all corrupt systems. 

 

the lies won't stop, what will stop is people paying attention to the news as they are all destituted. and eventually, something will give. 

 

the media's job is to parrot the lies of the establishment. all media do this. all media are thoroughly corrupt.

Tylers,

California is delaying the start of the crabbing season.  Is El Nino or Fukishima the reason???

As someone eluded to in the previous post regarding what the Fed may do come December: 

 

They read this stuff.   They know.   And the only reason they'd raise rates by a crumb would be for sheer credibility's sake, nothing else.

I can't remember which book it was, something early 90's presumably but I recall a PJ O'Rourke quote:

'in 20 years we'll have an economy based on people delivering pizzas to one another.'

Arguing over the implications of the official jobs report is like arguing over the implications of events in Marvel Universe.

How propserous can a society be when the trend is increasing lower paid jobs and shedding higher paid jobs?  Financialization and outsourcing can only take you so far at some point the cracks become gaping holes and the ship takes on water very fast.  I think we're going to see this start to accelerate in the next 3-5 years.

I see lots of companies moving to automation, but not just in manufacturing. Lots of white collar, information jobs are getting automated.

The Majority of businesses are sitting debt, using cheap debt to fund stock buy backs.
