"What do you do?" and "How do you earn a living?" are different questions and it's on you if you confuse them.

They're different questions but I wouldn't put the onus on the respondent because it's ambiguous, perhaps tactically so, since it's gauche to ask the latter, at least as stated. That way you can still prime the question but have plausible deniability.
