Elle,
Perhaps they are waiting "on" someone's schedule or activity rather than
for the Individual. Would that be correct?

Herb,
That's an interesting story. Seems a likely etymology, altho' may not have
come from that particular location.....
How about this one: Someone is waiting 'on' someone, rather than waiting
'for' someone.
Youu can imagine what goes through my head when I hear the first
expression.. ;^)
