To wait to get basic needs, such as food.Waiting to save your family from war and access to a shelter. Waiting to have a place in a soup kitchen.Waiting to be blessed with a job: waiting is a form of control, as Javier Auyero says:

 

“Through small progress and advances that are reported briefly, small reward keep people's expectations by indicating that the wait is not totally in vain.This is the framework in which symbolic waiting is further subordinated”.
