joined those ranks of people having to take part-time jobs instead of full-time jobs for what we call economic reasons. they wanted full-time jobs. a lot of those were contractors that weren't paid and furloughed workers that weren't paid. and so some of the gains that we saw were actually these people taking part-time jobs to offset what they were losing elsewhere. so there is a little bit of double counting in there. we also saw an increase in the unemployment rate for government workers. that picked up a bit. and for workers that were on temporary unemployment, 175,000 of the 340,000 workers that were furloughed in washington as a result of the shutdown. that's really interesting, though, that so many workers -- the good news is in a good economy, workers who were living paycheck to paycheck and having such a desperate time were able to get offsetting jobs to supplement their income even when they weren't getting paid. the bad news is that's what they had to do. >> diane, let me ask you about something. donald trump was one of those people who when he wasn't president criticized these numbers from the bureau of labor
