[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are 387 metropolitan areas in the USA.  The average unemployment rate in them is 4.0.

The current unemployment rate in the greater DMV is 3.6, tied for 153rd with 22 others including Pittsburgh and Charlotte.

Large metro areas with higher unemployment rates than the DMV include NYC, Philadelphia,
San Francisco, San Diego, and Chicago among others.

While the greater DMV is typically at or near the very low end of unemployment rates among large metro areas, the sky hasn’t fallen just yet.

Yes, the DOGE firings and the fallout are real, but folks on this website are disproportionately experiencing it because of who you are and who you associate with.  You are not a random sample of the DMV.  [/quote]

How can you speak this confidently when you are so ill-informed?

All the people who took the fork are on paid administrative leave.  We aren’t showing up in unemployment rates until October.

Tone who were RIFed would show up as unemployed, but may be waiting to apply for unemployment because of their severance package.
