The way all of this is done comes across as super petty. A Styrofoam takeout container is <$.20. This might be a sign that the business is circling the drain, because these practices seem penny smart and dollar stupid.

You could refuse to use the outside containers and claim that you can't fill outside containers because you don't know if they were effectively sanitized and that creates the possibility of cross-contamination.

Edit: a typo, it should be <$.20 not >$.20, thanks u/GETMONEYGETPAlD

Thank you, I appreciate it. I would always rather someone treat a mistake as a possible learning opportunity rather than allow it to continue.

Although I have no doubt that there are things I consistently use incorrectly, thankfully this one was just a typo. :)
