The final output should show a mix of orders dequeued for the first customer and the second customer. Remember that ConcurrentQueue<T> employs first in, first out (FIFO) logic:

  2. Add a new class to the project named Order:
    public class Order
    {
        public int Id { get; set; }
        public string? ItemName { get; set; }
