The verb "wait" has four meanings:

1a: To remain or rest in expectation: waiting for the guests to
arrive.

1b: To tarry until another catches up.

2: To remain or be in readiness: lunch waiting on the table.

3: To remain temporarily neglected, unattended to, or postponed: The
trip will have to wait.

4: To work as a waiter or waitress.

I would suggest that meaning 1a, 1b, and 3 are all appropriate.
