Tom's right

:-)
This made sense to me last night.
Now that I'm awake, the numbers in the two docs don't match and it makes no flippin sense whatsoever.....

From HTML - Jan employment is 496K greater than Dec due to pop controls
From PDF - Dec employment is revised downwards by 409K

Also...
From HTML link:
Dec Employment = 138,479
Jan = 138,566
Since when does 566-479 = 496?????

Do I need a remedial math lesson?
