Today, the maintenance man for my apartment “fixed” my toilet from constantly running. Now it won’t flush. I learned this after I took a huge dump. My boyfriend was over to spend the night. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I went with my boyfriend to meet his parents. I had to excuse myself to use the bathroom, and I ended up taking a huge crap that wouldn't flush. I had to reach in and break it up with my hands just so it would flush. Only after I washed up did I notice a plunger sitting under the sink. FML
Today, I took a big, smelly, satisfying dump when I woke up. When I tried to flush, nothing happened. None of my four roommates bothered to tell me we didn’t have running water. FML
Today, my boyfriend called me over, all just to unclog his toilet. It was clogged because he put my phone in it while he was taking a dump to see if it would actually flush. FML
Today, I woke up to the sound of my boyfriend chuckling to himself. Turns out he had just clogged the toilet. When he called maintenance, halfway through explaining the problem he started hysterically giggling and had to hang up mid-sentence. This has been a reoccurring theme. FML
Today, I was at my boyfriend's house, hanging out with him and his mom. I had to do a number two. A while later, we hear his mom in the washroom. She had turned on the bathtub and was flushing the toilet. A lot. Later on, my boyfriend leaves the room and she says, “Did you make that mess in the toilet?” FML
Today, my boyfriend of 6 months asked me to spend the night at his apartment for the first time. I had to poop really bad when I got there, so I used his only bathroom. He went after me, and came out a few seconds later, gagging. Apparently, I clogged his toilet. FML
Today, the morning before my flight with my boyfriend’s family at 2 am, I had to use the bathroom and unfortunately the toilet got clogged after a couple of safety flushes. Turns out my boyfriend can’t unclog the toilet and it’s the only toilet in the house of four people. We leave at 5 am. FML
Today, the maintenance man 'fixed' a leak in my apartment by flooding the place. FML
Today, I wanted to take a romantic bath with my boyfriend. I set up the candles and hot water, but I had to take a dump. After my business was done, I called him into the bath. He walks in, sniffs, glances at the toilet and leaves. Guess what I forgot to flush. FML
Today, while at my boyfriend's house, I needed to use the bathroom. I decided to be a good girlfriend and leave the seat up for him. He later yelled at me for not putting the seat down because he needed to take a dump. FML

Get a bucket or large bowl of water and use that flush until you can get maintenance back in

Hmm... it's possible that he forgot to reattach the chain leading from the flapper to the lever, or he didn't turn the water back on to the tank. Can't really see what else would cause the issue. Still, it's better that they deal with it, rather than something unrelated happening and them trying to stick the blame on you for tampering with it. Hope it gets resolved, OP.

Use a poop knife and a ladle to scoop your turd into a trash bag, toss the ladle and knife in with the poop, knot the whole mess and toss it in the dumpster. Make your boyfriend think he broke the toilet when he tries to use it, and he’ll go to work fixing it. Life just takes a little finesse to get things done!

I had to deal with that for a brief period of time. I had a big Tupperware normally used for soups that I kept in the bathroom to flush. It's a tiny bit embarrassing, but any guy that's bothered by the fact that you take a shit like everyone else or that something broke in your apartment isn't a guy worth having.

Look for a valve at the bottom-left of the toilet. Turn it counter-clockwise if possible. That should turn the water back on to the toilet. It's likely the maintenance man was just really lazy and simply turned the water off to keep it from running....

Girls poop too. And maybe your boyfriend can actually fix it since the so-called maintenance man didn't.
