An Interesting Statistic
According to the IBD here, we need to create 130,000 new jobs each month to keep up with the people entering the workforce. Does that mean actual newly created jobs? Does it mean job vacancies that require hiring to fill? Does it mean net 130,000 new jobs?
At first that seemed like a large number, month after month. However, I guess that's not so many. When I stop to think about all the businesses in Anchorage as well all across the U.S., it only requires 130,000 to create one new job.
I don't remember which charge slip from which store I frequent that currently states they are hiring.
Target is arriving this summer, so I guess that will be a number of new jobs. BP has been doing significant hiring for the past several months.
In the mean time, I have a new tutor student. This is the first since I finished the middle of August with the four I worked with all summer.
