I've had a few clients over the years bring me in a litter pan or a bucket full of poo to select the fecal sample from. I too have received urine in dixie cups, old pill bottles, plastic bags, some really nice dishes, dog dishes, and glass bottles of every size and shape. Some of the urines have dirt and leaves floating in them. So much for a clean sample.

Urine. In a pickle jar. With pickle juice and seeds still in it. Told us ‘the lab could sort all that out’. My poor receptionist. I put her raise into effect the next pay period.
