The queue is simply a waiting line for work to be done. I do not charge for being added nor do I take deposits. There is no obligation or expectation that the job be done when the time comes for it. Updates are currently e-mailed out every 2-3 months but I am looking into a more automated system that customers can check their position at any time. It will not show any personal information!
Folks can and do drop out for various reasons so it may not be as long as it first appears when you join. If a delay is desired when a time slot opens up, let me know and I will do my best to work your job in when you let me know you are ready. The time limit for delays is 6 months before a position will be dropped.
