We consider a modification of the standard G/G/1 queueing system with infinite waiting space and the first-in-first-out discipline in which the service times and interarrival times depend linearly and randomly on the waiting times. In this model the waiting times satisfy a modified version of the classical Lindley recursion. When the waiting-time distributions converge to a proper limit, Whitt proposed a normal approximation for this steady-state limit. In this paper we prove a limit theorem for the steady-state limit of the system. Thus, our result provides a solid foundation for Whitt's normal approximation of the steady-state distribution of the system.
