Dr. Kurt Richebächer has a short article in the Daily Reckoning (already re-posted all over the place) explaining exactly how the government has been jiggering employment numbers. I think most people are aware that the numbers are a very poor representation of the jobs situation, but I haven't seen a short essay explaining it concisely.

Who is this guy?

Respected International Banker and Economist, Dr. Kurt Richebächer's articles appear regularly in The Wall Street Journal, Barron's, the US edition of  The Fleet Street Letter and other respected financial publications. France's Le Figaro magazine did a feature story on him as 'the man who predicted the Asian crisis.'
