Think your job sucks? Try being this Sri Lankan maid who alleges that, after she complained about how much work she had to do, had her boss hammer hot 2-inch nails into her hands and legs. Oh, Sri Lanka.

A Sri Lankan maid has accused the Saudi family she worked for of hammering hot, 2-inch nails into her hands and legs because she complained about the workload.

The 49-year-old maid, L.T. Ariyawathi, came home last week after spending five months in Saudi Arabia. When she told her family she was in pain, they took her to the hospital and X-rays showed 24 nails in her body.

“She still can’t properly sit down and walk,” Dr. Kamal Weerathunga told the BBC.
