One thing I like about the holiday season is, for the most part everyone who is usually having problems finding a job can find some kind of part time work during this time. For the week that ended on Nov. 16 jobless claims dropped by 21,000 to 323,000. This represents the fewest claims since Sept. 28th, from 344,000 the previous week, according to the Labor Department. Analyst were expected it to drop to 335,000. With sales on the rise during the holiday season, employers are hiring more workers to meet demand.
