I know I know... probably coming off as a jerk here. But I had at least 30 people wanting stat migration, how many did I do? Zero. Why? 10 minutes is insanely too long, it's so sad 
Maybe it's just me, but I can't sit still, 10 minutes of just twiddling my thumbs, bleh. I could make more in that 10 minutes doing small changes that total up to be worth more. So without turning this into a flame post.

I have an idea. (woah, no way)
What if Image Designers used tools. Like a crafter has a crafting tool, what if we had an Image Designer tool kit. And like crafting you could have more than one. You open one up and go to work on someone, when they like what you did, you commit and it minimizes the window and still does a count down (just like a crafting tool). You can always boot another tool and start on someone else, but you can't use that first tool until the timer has finished.
When I was a Master Armorsmith I would have like 6 tools lined up in my fkey bar. If the tool is in the bar it shows a count down over the tool, which is kinda neat, lets you know when the tool can be used again. And this accomplishes 2 things... 1) both the ID and customer can go their seperate ways and get on with their game life. 2) An ID can move onto a new customer for faster service. Many times today I found myself out numbered, I felt like a doctor because I had a line... and if you think about it, it's going to be like this down the line, sure today brought out all the ID's, but do you think the tents are gonna be packed with ID'sall the time? It just seems like royal pain in the ass to have to tell the people waiting in line "oh sorry guys its gonna be awhile, waiting for this imaginary clock to tick down".
Of course the other idea is...
JUST REMOVE IT!!!
my 2 cents and probably more

Well, I only had I think three requests to do stat mit today. When I did,I just chatted with the person while it was going, asked them what they did, etc. Now I guess if I had gotten 30 requests I may have started to buckle a bit, lol.

Charge 100K for Stat Migration then the ten minute wait is worth it. If they don't like the price they can attempt to find another ID and be out of your hair.
