1000 Customer Service Jobs May Come to Greenville County
South Carolina has some good news for the Greenville County community as the city is negotiating a deal with an undisclosed international company that could bring 1000 jobs to the area. The unidentified company, known only as Project Teal in county documents, is considering Greenville to be their North American home base, but the city is also competing with Virginia and Texas for the deal that could possibly create new customer service jobs. The company behind Project Teal is working with in connection with real estate business Village Land Inc. The venture between the two companies plan on investing million dollars on creating the proposed building. Greenville city council is expected to approve the deal, which includes granting the international company tax breaks in exchange for the corporate investment to the area. If Project Teals gets approved for the tax breaks, the company or developer would save more than .3 million dollars in tax costs.

GGN- Unemployment Rises in 30 States in January 2010
PLEASE SUBSCRIBE!!!!! news.yahoo.com WASHINGTON Unemployment rose in 30 states in January, the Labor Department said Wednesday, evidence that jobs remain scarce in most regions of the country. The data is somewhat better than December, when 43 states reported higher unemployment rates, but worse than November, when rates fell in most states. Still, five states reported record-high joblessness in January: California, at 12.5 percent; South Carolina, 12.6 percent; Florida, 11.9 percent; North Carolina, 11.1 percent; and Georgia, 10.4 percent. Michigan’s unemployment rate is still the nation’s highest, at 14.3 percent, followed by Nevada, with 13 percent and Rhode Island at 12.7 percent. South Carolina and California round out the top five. There were some signs of job creation. Thirty-one states added jobs in January, up from only 11 in the previous month. But the job gains weren’t enough, in many cases, to lower the unemployment rate. For example, California reported the largest job gains, of 32500, though its unemployment rate also rose. Illinois, New York, Washington state and Minnesota reported the next highest totals of new jobs. Thank you everyone for subscribing!
