The economy added 192,000 jobs last month, with factories, professional and business services, education and health care among those expanding employment. Retailers, however, trimmed jobs. State and local government, wrestling with budget shortfalls, slashed 30,000 jobs, the most since November. http://link.email.washingtonpost.com/r/C7I8XW/FXES80/M3SRCS/93VER5/T519Y/FW/h For more information, visit washingtonpost.com ---------------------------------------- |
