So fun to speak to @EricaGroshen and offer a Valentine to the monthly revisions in the jobs report ❤️.
Remember in elementary school when everyone would share valentines? Don't you kind of wish there was a grown-up version of that?. We here at Planet Money agree. Which is why every year we share valentines with all the things we love. Listen:.
