Questions about freezing in glass

Still new to the whole zero waste thing. I have plenty of plastic containers, and I don't see them ever being so degraded I can't use them, but where I can, I'd like to slowly switch over to glass. I'll probably purchase some glass lock type containers if I see them at op shops.

I've decided to start reusing pasta jars for stock and soup etc instead of recycling. I don't want purchase things to be zero waste you see. I read an article online about the duo's and don'ts of using jars, so I know to fill it below the shoulder and let it cool completely and tighten the lid the following day.

But what about quick thawing? I inevitably forget to get the stock out for a recipe with the meat, and I'll either microwave or put in hot water. But I assume that the temperature shock will break it? What do others do? Or do I just need to be more damn organised?

TL:DR How to quick thaw glass containers from the freezer without breaking the glass.
