         #{klass.name} was enqueued with argument values which do not cleanly serialize to/from JSON.
         This means that the job will be run with slightly different values than the ones supplied to `enqueue`.
         Argument values should be strings, booleans, numbers, or nil (or arrays/hashes of those value types).
