Yes, the point is, unemployment means someone doesn't make money. If you are still able to make money, that means the person is trying. In fact, even if a person is not yet able to earn money but he is working or trying, he still cannot be said to be unemployed.
It's just that, in fact, in society, perhaps sometimes there is still a strong relationship with what is called work:
Wearing a uniform - leaving for work - coming home in the afternoon - there's an appointment - a clear place of work - there's a definite salary every month - there's a pay slip.
Meanwhile, others are considered to be doing unclear work and unemployment, or worse still, in my place, worshiping the devil to get money.
