I sent a quick text to the family immigration lawyer chat(three lawyers and me always seeking free answers to immigration questions).
"Short answer. In the U.S., work is a service or labor that a person received compensation for including money, food, or clothing."
I also described what you said. "Paid appearances, duh. Touring restaurants etc. blurry but my initial argument would require proof of intent/execution of payment."
