Was taking a shower and the water started to backup in the tub. Turned the shower off and let it drain. A few minutes later I flushed the terlet... water backs up more... terlet overflows all over the bathroom. Shitty water all over. FUCK.

Dumped a 4 quarts of liquid plumber down the tub drain and waited an hour. Then turned the hot water on high. It looked like it was going to be ok for about 30 second. Then it backed up again.

So I went outside and walked over to the septic tank air hole. Pryed the manhole cover off, looked down and the shit is three feet from ground level and rising up the air pipe. FUCK.

Sitting in a hotel now. Called plumber, he'll come out in the morning.

That is all.

FUCK.

I doubt it. I have no puddles in the yard which will occur before a backup or complete stoppage.

I am guessing the fucker's just full or there are roots in the pipes. I am renting this house so either way, I don't care. I just want it fixed asap.

Will the landlord cover it if you called the plumber instead of letting him do it?

I called his plumber who is supposed to be on call 24/7. The guy didn't pickup the phone.

They are sooooo paying for my Hotel bill. Called at like 8PM CST. No call back as of yet.
