Unemployment rate would be delayed, would 't it, for folks who get laid off with severance?

My DH has been unemployed since mid August but we received 14 weeks severance which runs out this month. So he has not filed for unemployment yet.

Would I be correct to guess that the October layoff bonanza won't hit the unemployment rate till a couple months afterwards?

When your husband finally file for unemployment benefits, he will become a part of the new claims data for those seeking benefits. It should show up in the data that is scheduled to be released December 16.

Verizon announced 13k job cuts. Ouch. I really don't believe those unemployment numbers released by Trump's revamped BLS. Nope. Over 1,000,000 jobs gone since February 2025, aint no way, those job numbers for September are correct.

Trump fired the BLS commissioner over the jobs report. I don't believe the BLS has changed at all, before or after that, but the jobs numbers do seem suspiciously rosy, in view of the constant reports of layoffs and firings and job cuts we've been hearing. I'm not looking forward to this month's revisions, that's for sure.

Never thought I would see the day when Jeff/DcUM crowd agree with Trump/Reoublicans to replace those deplorables with more h1bs !!!

+118k jobs in September. July and August revised down -33k jobs, with August joining June as negative (a very bad summer for jobs)!

It wasn’t that long ago that the headlines were worried when job growth would dip below 200k. Now we basically had no job growth all summer, but the headlines are very neutral. Even the NYTimes has a headline of “Mixed Jobs Report”. Look at the last 5 months, very few job gains, but it’s ok because the rich are getting richer faster then before!

No, not a great report. Quite the opposite And the stock market is on a sell-off right now. Red across the board

Crypto is tanking, market is tanking today...

Trump better pull his head out of his ass and start asking some actual experts for advice on this.
