There's actually a kind of logic to this though. If your idea of the economy consists almost entirely of how you personally interact with it, then endemic shitty service=bad economy. Even though in reality, it probably means a tight labor market. The same could be said about workplaces.

With the caveat that the extent that these are accurate or valuable descriptions is limited.... I keep seeing people talk about "woke 1" and "woke 2" and that the peak of "woke 1" was 2020 and I don't really think that's accurate. "Woke 1" was during the latter years of the Obama presidency
