Short version: "inflation" is not remotely the same thing as "recession", which seems to be the point you're trying to make. If your only evidence for an economic slowdown is prices and not production or consumption, you're likely confusing factors.
Clearly the truth is that the labor market remains strong. Most people are working. Most people have multiple choices in jobs. Most people are making more money (yes, in nominal dollars) than they were last year. Those are all signs of a healthy economy. They are not the only signs of a healthy economy, and there can be other aspects (like inflation) which are less desirable[1]
[1] Though probably 80% of the people who like to yell about it don't really understand it well. Inflation, by reducing the size of existing investments and debts (i.e. "stuff wealthier people have") relative to the economy as a whole (i.e. "wage levels for everyone"), acts naturally to reduce income and asset inequality. It's not entirely a bad thing.
And the other point, which you skipped, was that this was a digression anyway from the upthread discussion about whether or not the labor market indicators are "strong" or not. And they are: wages are tracking labor demand and growing at the same time participation is growing. That means the market is operating well (and, FWIW, that typical models would expect wage growth to continue to match inflation, as it generally does in functioning markets).
