This post is late but for completeness sake it's added.

The ADP jobs report says:

• Total employment: -203,000
• Small businesses: -75,000
• Medium businesses: -75,000
• Large businesses: -53,000
• Goods-producing sector: -117,000
• Service-providing sector: -86,000
• Manufacturing industry: -65,000

ADP is private jobs only and notice how the job cuts in manufacturing contradict the ISM manufacturing report.

The above graph shows small businesses have taken quite the hit in comparison to larger ones in terms of losing jobs.

Here is a graph comparing the BLS vs. the ADP report.

Monster, the online haven for headhunters and scams, so take this for what it's worth, reports online listings increased slightly for October, but are still down 20% from 1 year ago.

Finally, this aptly titled post, Crumbs, by Alan Tonelson, is on Stimulus jobs and the lack of attention to manufacturing:
