Workman did a giant poo in my downstairs toilet and it won't go.

[Poodlelove]

Today I had 2 men working in my garden , they were recommended to me by a colleague.4 hours work.
After a couple of hours one of them asked to use the toilet , he took off his shoes and was quick and didn't think any more of it.
An hour later the younger fella knocks on the door and I am on a work call , he points to the direction of the toilet and I just nod.

Ten minutes later he is still in there , I had to make another call so didn't think any more of it and then they had finished.

Anyway I had to dash out so got ready and needed a quick wee ( wee is only allowed in my downstairs loo ) and there is such a big poo in the toilet that it is actually out of the water AND it won't flush.

What on earth am I supposed to do ?

My Mum said stand on a chair and pour boiling water from a height 🤢 That doesn't work.
My husband isn't home until 9pm tonight , he is going to have to deal with it , but he said he wants his dinner first.
I could not poo in someone else's house.
Surely he could have held it in or scooped it out himself , or actually told me.
I have found an old ice cream container and some marigolds and as soon as hubby has eaten he can scoop it out.

The men in my house regularly churn out turds that are unflushable. They’re so big, they just won’t go.

Normally I’m sceptical of this stuff, but the same thing happened in work today.

I work in a small office and a guy who usually works offsite was in for meetings, and left a mess in the toilet (presumably for the women to clean up).

The fucking smell lingered for ages it was so gross.

Thankfully he won’t be back for ages.

To be honest toilets are supposed to be functional and part of that is flushing shit surely. I’ve never personally witnessed or experienced a shit capable enough of bringing a toilet to a standstill, presumably it’s a faulty toilet as opposed to a remarkable shit.

This is funniest thread I’ve seen in a long time

Agreed.

We have a special "poo-stick" (a piece of garden cane about 2 feet long") just for this purpose.
We keep in in a flowerbed near the french doors to the garden with the pooey end always in the soil. That way we can hand it to the culprit by the clean end.

Anyone who leaves a "tall man in the deep end" has to sort it out themselves.😷

Have you not got a poo knife?

I would probably use a toilet brush to break it up a bit (throwing it away and getting a new one after) and then leave it to steep in bleach for an hour or so.

😂

@Poodlelove I could not poo in someone else's house.

Would you shit yourself instead?

I do feel sorry for the poor boy, he probably tried repeatedly to flush it!

Was his name Innes?

This seems to happen fairly regularly on MN.

Yes! I always use the finest cake slice to deal with this weighty problem ever since.

This is what my husband said he would do when I phoned him.I think it's the best option

bio laundry powder (or washing up liquid)
wait for little while
then again bucket of warm water

If it’s not going down with lots of water break it up with a toilet brush then flush

You just need to break it up and it will go down.

Let's hope they don't pop that back in their cutlery drawer!

@Poodlelove bucket of water, as high as you can, pour it in as fast as you can. Poo gone. 👍

I said OR can you not read ?

I think you should send him one of those really long MN texts:

Sat here in tears. Myself and my partner were deeply perturbed by the ungodly turd you left our toilet and request a 10% discount for distress caused.

You need a full bucket of water not bleach. No scooping required. At worst use something to break it up. He probably just flushed and left without checking the pot.

I had the same problem as the OP after I read about this on MN and it saved me a lot of grief.

It's the first time in 20 years since this has happened , husband says the toilet has a smaller tank and a short flush , so we have been lucky.

We had a guy renovating our garden, he was with us for a week.
We offered for him to use the downstairs loo and he could just knock and come in at the backdoor.
He never did and before he’d finished the job, he rang to say he’d got an injury and wouldn’t be back for a few weeks.
That weekend Dh went in the shed which he had been storing his tools and on a high shelf were 5 chip shop trays….🤮
I’ll leave to your imagination 🤣
