Maybe I should peruse some ads and give these clueless employers a call. As for the statement that Manpowers bogus "study" suggests one in five Michigan employers will add workers in the next quarter, what unadulterated bunk! The question presented only allows for "stay the same, increase, decrease or don't know". There is NO indication that the "10%" of net increase is more than one employee per company, nor is there any indication that decrease does not mean close doors and let go of dozens. My heart breaks as I watch "experts" report bogus statistics and the state of my home state die.
