I find it unsettling that we need to acquire a mutex (a concurrency primitive) to send data to a channel (another concurrency primitive). I think this achieves the same effect (we can stop the worker goroutines in a safe way) without having to mix them and leaving the main code path clear (just try to send a job, or run a new goroutine).
