      Yes, it shows up in rising GDP, higher wages, lower unemployment, and public opinion.

      Your personal situation may of course be different. If it is, then look at making a change; you can often get better wages by changing jobs than by sticking around hoping your boss gives you a raise.

    Maybe people don’t give a shit about how “the economy” is doing when wages are so disconnected with the cost of living?

      Wages seem to be rising relative to prices now that the big shifts caused by disproportionately laying off lower-wage workers during the pandemic are over.
