Subsection (1) of FSA 934.03 criminalizes the intentional interception or attempted interception, by various means, of communications and the disclosure of such communications.
That's not what happened here, unless you think the maintenance guy's (singular) utterance was a communication with an imaginary friend or higher being (which wouldn't appear to fall within the definition of "communication," and neither does talking to oneself). Subsections (2) and (3) concern completely irrelevant situations, and subsection (4) addresses punishment. Before pressing the OP to cite law that supports his conclusion, you ought to do more than cite a rather long (~2,400 words) statute and claim that the statute makes the recording in question "likely" illegal.
(a) Intentionally intercepts, endeavors to intercept, or procures any other person to intercept or endeavor to intercept any wire, oral, or electronic communication;
According to the OP there was another person there.
Every month my apartment sends pest control and a maintenence person around.
And there is nothing in the law that exempts communication to one's self.
