I have a thread that has a job Queue, it continuosly polls this queue
to see if there are any jobs for it, what i really wont to be able to
do is, when the queue is empty, i want the thread to pause (or more
technical, i want the thread to block) until the queue gets populated
again. Is this possible ?
