  // When a thread terminates, some other thread *must* call Join() on that

  // following two functions:
  //    ThreadManager::CleanupCompletedThreads()
  //    ThreadManager::MarkAsCompleted()
  //
  //  - MarkAsCompleted() puts the WorkerThread object in the ThreadManger's
  //    completed_threads_ list
  //  - CleanupCompletedThreads() calls "Join()" on the threads that are already
  //    in the completed_threads_ list  (since a thread cannot call Join() on
  //    itself, it calls CleanupCompletedThreads() *before* calling
  //    MarkAsCompleted())
