Unemployment...over time

My sister finally got a job the other day after being unemployed for several months. I'm glad for her. It's a huge weight off her family's shoulders. She's not alone in her experiences. It's no secret that Michigan's not doing so hot right now. There are many, many people that haven't been as lucky as her.

A co-worker of mine shared a site he had seen that showed the employment status over time for many metropolitan areas from 2004 to present. It's really quite interesting. it shows we still have a long way to go, though.

I am truly blessed and relieved to have found a job in this economy. Wish others had the same "luck".
