"However the rest of the job categories are slowing, although I think home-building might start picking up a bit."

The rest of the categories aren't slowing, most are picking up, leisure and hospitality actually slowed some.

And we're at more people working that before the pandemic, we passed that mark several months ago. So the jobs market fully recovered and then some, it's just that people moved from lesire and hospitality into other sectors, probably because of better pay and benefits.

We're in the best job market in US history, there has never been a better time to look for a job than right now. And wage growth is starting to exceed inflation. We're in a great spot right now for jobs and it's because Democrats put working people first with all the big bills they passed the last 2 years.
