The kitchen sink is clogged right now. I guess it got worse and the garbage disposal isnt even letting the water go down the drain. I suggested to get some Draino to my bf and he said "we need to get permission to use that because its not our place--its the apartment complex's. Is that true? I cant even wash my dishes this weekend. Wtf. Is there something else (like a product) that can be used to unclog the sink? Maintenance wont be able to get here until Monday or Tuesday.

Never use Drano in a garbage disposal. The caustic chemicals will damage the various parts inside the motor. The only DIY fix you should try is this: pour 1/2 cup of baking soda down the drain, followed by 1/2 cup of vinegar (any kind). Wait til it stops foaming and fizzing and then pour boiling water down the drain. This MIGHT clear the clog, but if it doesn’t work, call your landlord. The beauty of being a renter is that it’s not your job or your responsibility to fix things that break - it’s your landlord’s.
