Adding 115,000 jobs nationally is so small that it can't really have an effect. More people are hired over Christmas sales every year. It certainly can't account for an entire 1% drop. 115,000 is a fraction of a fraction.
More people that were looking for work are no longer looking for work. Some of these people likely have completed a transition into government support.
Or they have found a way too pick up odd jobs or started a business of their own.
