Considering writing an introduction to BLS (bureau of labor statistics) data, including the tech to ingest the data automatically for usage.

The above is part of a wider project of mine to bring together as many sources of macro-economic data as possible into one database.

Having a personal copy of such interesting data sources to query, and find patterns within, with the agility of SQL feels powerful to me, so I have been exploring that.

If I write, then it will be covering sections A and B of the monthly employment report (household and establishment surveys, respectively) and the JOLT report (Job Openings and Labor Turnover).
