Only 114,000 jobs added, yet the rate drops from 8.2% to 7.8%.

Take another look. That '114K' number grew to '873K' in just the past few days.

No they are two different numbers from two different data sources. The Establishment Survey number is +114K and the Household Survey is +873K. The Household Survey is used in the UE calc.
