“The number of employees year-over-year has been gradually increasing since last September. Everything else is dropping: Average wage per employee is down; the amount of bonuses paid is down; commissions are down; overtime wages are down. It’s definitely a jobless recovery we are going through, but on the other hand it is improving. ... We didn’t experience a lot of increase in (health insurance) costs.”
