Not asking them a long string of questions attempting to determine what their field of work is and why they’re not working, like:

“Well, what kind of work are you looking for?” 

“Are you trying for a baby?”

“Are you going to school/going back to school?”

Consider:

First of all, while work is common topic of conversation and it’s often very interesting to hear what people study or do for a living, it is entirely possible to having a conversation with another human being without knowing what their job is.

Consider:

If this person had a reason for not working that they wanted to share with you, they would have already said:

“Wow, job searches are exhausting, right? I spent so much time on Indeed yesterday.”

“I’m taking some time off work to focus on family”

“We’re trying for a baby, yay!”

“I’m not working but I’m going to school at Generic College Name”

“I’m finally going back to school to be an architect, yay!”

Consider:

They did not say any of these things.

Consider:

There are a lot of really shitty reasons for a person not to be working, and maybe they don’t want to talk about it right now, and maybe dealing with a list of questions about why they aren’t working is just going to make them feel worse and push them to tell you something they didn’t want to talk about in the first place.

Consider:

If you’re in a situation where you’re talking to someone you don’t know that well, and you ask them where they work or what they do, and they tell you they’re not working or not working working right now and then just don’t elaborate, say, “okay” and keep going with the conversation.
