OT: Where do I find job statistics?

[Jim Thompson]

I'm looking for statistics that show what percentage of the population
is involved in each job type.

For instance, what percentage are electrical engineers, what
percentage are working as store clerks, what percentage are burger
flippers, etc.

I have surfed myself into all kinds of crap, but not what I want.

Suggestions?

Thanks!

I love to cook with wine. Sometimes I even put it in the food.

I'd start with the DOL. They ought to have the most credible data. If
they don't, chance are that reliable data doesn't really exist.

Not much in terms of statistics on this page but this would be their link:

The Census Bureau? They like to ask lots of prying questions. ;-)
