FIRST JOB – SAIDA
Lydia’s first job was in a big house owned by a Lebanese woman. After the first few months which were ‘fine’ and only included 18 hours of work per day with Lydia locked inside, the woman started getting Lydia men to sleep with her for money that the Lebanese woman would take. One after the other. On daily basis, sometimes twice a day.
She would tell her: ‘You came here to work. This is the work.’
Lydia needs to leave Lebanon and go home. ASAP.
