Joyous Jobs
08/31/2018 |
The Friday File: At the worst of the Great Recession, total US employment was 129.7 million. Since then, the number of employed Americans has steadily risen and is now 149.1 million. Better yet, 51% of workers said they are satisfied with their jobs, the highest percentage since 2005 when it was 52.1%. But, we have been much happier. The all-time high was 61.1% in 1987! Have a happy Labor Day!
