Manufacturing jobs fell by 18,000. Construction jobs dropped by 33,000. Jobs in the financial services fell by 14,000 for a second straight month, evidence of the carnage in the mortgage industry. Employment in credit intermediation has fallen by 46,000 since February.

Payrolls in health care increased by 33,000 and food-service jobs rose by 25,000. Those two industries account for more than half of the job growth so far this year, the Bureau of Labor Statistics noted.

Would you like fries with that?
