Did you have a look at the man page for at(1)?  This is
in that man page:

       atq     lists  the user's pending jobs, unless the user is the superuser; in that case,
               everybody's jobs are listed.  The format of the output lines (one for each job)
               is: Job number, date, hour, job class.
