/-----/ Wait till next month when they quietly lower the numbers like they just did for March.
Employment gains in March, however, were revised lower to show 165,000 jobs were created during the month, 71,000 fewer than previously reported. February's job gains were also revised lower — to 248,000 from 326,000 — making job growth over that two month stretch lower than previously reported by 149,000.
With these revisions, job gains over the last six months have averaged 290,000.

You realize anyone above 150,000 is gravy, right?
