#2Interesting, this article doesn't seem to mention the layoffs from the tech industry. Which, if you look at the numbers, sort of make up the bulk of it.

Tech sector is not the bulk of it, many sectors doing worse and that is why they got the headlines. "Financial Activities" supersector was terrible this month. Another reason is there is not an umbrella "tech" sector in the NAICS, so it's harder to report on.

These guys are just nonstop liars. Print the headline, revise when no one is looking.

I predict the numbers will look good after November. Maybe not reality but the numbers.
