Under normal circumstances, total payroll, seasonally adjusted, should grow about 120K per month, reflecting population dynamics and anything better than a stagnant economy.

It seems that I am not the one who is reading impaired... The latest date on the chart is 01/04....how could that possibly be May? Even if it were...unless I am mistaken..this is October...so how could that show that the record was not broken in September????
Obviously last month's increase did not set the record by being the highest monthly increase, but it made the overall total number of people employed in the US as the highest in history...hence it clearly broke the "all-time record."
