As she and a second woman crushed the Styrofoam, a man and woman to their side carefully poured fuel and oil into a funnel, oozing the mix into the bottles. Next to them, a man dipped the wicks \u2014 shredded pieces of tablecloths and curtains \u2014 before wrapping the heads with bits of twine.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI left my old job two weeks ago, and was supposed to start the new one on Monday,\u201d said Olga. \u201cI never imagined I\u2019d be doing this instead.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI prefer my new job to this, really.
