private sector business with positions to fill still needs them filled, snow or no.

Or, if I have a snow day on Thursday, then I reschedule the interview for Friday.

This is BS of the highest magnitude. It's easily exposed, if 100,000 jobs were lost (or whatever) due to bad weather in February, then there should be a corresponding bump up in March when the weather clears up.

I'm not holding my breath that anyone in the MSM is actually going to pay attention, though.

It’s funny how snow shut down D.C. for a week, yet no government jobs were lost. Go figure.

Exactly! the other thing is it didn’t snow every day in February. It also didn’t knock out the phones or the internet. People could still conduct phone interviews and get their resumes in front of prospective employers. The real problem is that there are very few prospective employers. Particularly in any manufacturing businesses.

Producers are panic stricken that they will spend $20 or $320 k to hire a new employee only to find that the government mandates on Health Care and extra taxes will cause them to lay off the new hires.
