Summary:
The aim of the paper is to investigate queueing systems of the type $M/Mn$ (in equilibrium) in which customers to be served are selected from the queue: with fixed probabilities either the first customer or the last one is chosen. Using the standard method of generating functions the waiting time distribution and the outtaking probabilities are derived.
