The queue:work command allows you to process jobs on the queue. It is similar to the queue:listen command, but has some differences.

You can use various options such as --queue to specify the queue to listen on, --memory to set the memory limit, and --timeout to set the job timeout. It also provides the ability to run in maintenance mode, delay job restarts, and process jobs one at a time. Examples of calling the queue:work command include running it in daemon mode, forcing it to run in maintenance mode, and specifying a delay for restarts of failed jobs.
