I was in Malaysia and used the toilet in my hotel room. The handle was broken and was just turning idly. Since I was leaving for dinner, I told the reception desk that it was broken. They told me it would need fixed right away.
I got back two hours later, check the toilet and it is still broken. Call the desk, they're sending an "engineer" right away. The guy comes in, goes to the toilet, I show him that the handle is just turning idly.
He looks at me, surrounds my shoulders with his arm and tells me "I will show you".
Proceeds to turn the handle the other way round and, tadaam, the water flushes...
