"Change in each state's number of job openings" is the correct answer.

The map shows whether the total number of job openings in each state, between February 2020 and January 2026, went up (green, +%) or down (red, -%), with darker colors indicating farther from 0%.

The map shows that Idaho had the highest increase in job openings while Wyoming had the highest decrease in job openings.

Congratulations to the one person that got this right.

Decrease in percent of workers employed for at least 30 hours per week?

I voted change in number of companies. I’ve heard of companies leaving California in recent years, including Tesla moving to Texas.

Are the chairs a clue? Something to do with sit down jobs perhaps.

[AviatorTom]

@purplepoppy Good observation. The chairs are a hint, but not to the type of job.

[Shiprex]

Probably something to do with the oil consumption

Clearly men finally realized they are the ones who need to change jobs while women just sit there judging them.
