(Minghui.org) I have been working in a pharmaceutical store for a year and a half. My boss was a shrewd lady, but a good person.

When I first started working there, I didn’t know much about anything, let alone dispensing drugs. My boss taught me patiently. I learned carefully.

New staff generally has to go through a six-month probationary period, but, by the end of the third month, I became a bona fide employee with a full salary.

After some time, the boss needed to go home to attend to some family business. She put me in charge of the store. She feels safe in entrusting me with this responsibility because she knows I practice Falun Dafa.

The pharmacy sells a complex variety of drugs. It is inevitable that there are drugs that have reached their expiration dates. My boss told me that all drug stores sell expired drugs because throwing them away is a pity.

My boss one day asked me to remove the expiration dates on some expired drugs and to try my best to sell them.

I told her very seriously but sincerely, “I practice Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance and live by Dafa’s principles. I cannot go along with your wishes to sell expired medicines. It’s not good for our customers and not good for you.”

Whenever I had a chance, I would talk to my boss about the teachings of Falun Dafa and the beauty of the practice, and how Falun Dafa has spread to all corners of the world. I would also tell her about how the Communist Party has smeared Falun Dafa with manufactured lies and how Dafa disciples have been persecuted.

My boss has read a lot of Dafa materials and really understood the truth. Her whole family has renounced the Communist Party and all its affiliated organizations. Even her father who had served as our local Party Secretary for his entire adult life, joined in the renouncement and withdrawal.

My boss often said to me, “I know Dafa disciples are good people.”

In the fall of 2014, she planned to go to Beijing to attend her niece's wedding. She took out her wedding ring that she hasn’t worn for many years, intending to put it on for the occasion, but somehow misplaced it

Her husband helped her turn the house upside down but couldn’t find it. Her ring had simply gone missing, leaving her feeling quite distraught.

When she was leaving with some of her relatives in a van, I reminded her to recite often "Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good." I told her those words would bring her good luck and she would enjoy a safe trip.

En route, while everybody was asleep, my boss remained awake because she was in an unhappy mood worrying over the lost ring.

Suddenly, she noticed a sedan rushing toward her van at high speed. The van driver turned the steering wheel quickly and succeeded to avoid a head-on collision.

The maneuver was superbly executed. If the driver had turned the steering wheel a little bit more, the van would have ended up in a ditch.

The driver broke in a cold sweat. All passengers were scared speechless when they were met with a literal rude awakening. They realized how close to death they had been, because everybody knew it’s a rarity to survive such a close encounter.

Afterwards, my boss told me, “I was extremely bothered over losing my wedding ring. I felt it was a bad omen. I couldn’t sleep, so I kept saying Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good, over and over. I thought maybe Dafa’s Master would help me find the ring. I have no doubt my saying those golden words saved all of our lives from a bad car accident.”

After the wedding, she returned home. One day, she was looking for the right kind of shoe polish to polish her shoes. All of a sudden, she spied her ring right in the midst of the shoe polishing cans.

She couldn’t repress her excitement, and immediately telephoned her husband to tell him the good news.

Her husband couldn’t believe it, “Didn’t we search thoroughly everywhere, including the shoe rack area? How did it suddenly pop up? Where did it pop up from?”

My boss came to a conclusion, “It has to be Dafa’s Master who helped me find my ring.”

In 2014, the store business took a very bad turn for an entire week. I was rather puzzled, I couldn’t figure out why.

During our end-of-the-month inventory, I found some expired drugs on the list. I brought the subject up to my boss. She admitted she had recently sold a number of such expired medicines because she felt throwing them away seemed such a waste.

I spoke to my boss in detail about the relationship between gain and loss I learned from Dafa. I shared with her the importance of being truthful in our dealings with others. I explained to her how deceiving others was really deceiving ourselves.

My boss listened attentively. She told me she very much agreed with what I was saying, but what could she do to make up for her mistake?

I recommended that she should immediately throw away all expired drugs and make it an absolute rule never to have any around. She consented and promptly disposed of all remaining expired drugs.

The next day, business noticeably picked up.

My boss said to me emotionally, “Wow, it’s truly amazing. People really can’t do things unconscionably. Thank you, Dafa’s Master, for helping me understand!”

She also told me that when her brother opened a deli, he had also hired a helper who practices Falun Dafa and had been duly impressed by her work ethics.

“Dafa practitioners are all such good and honest people. You all work hard and are so dependable and trustworthy. You guys are truly admirable.”

Beginning in 2015, my boss raised my monthly salary by a hundred yuan. She would also give me sizable bonuses occasionally.

When I thanked her but tried to refused it, she said to me, “You put your whole heart into working for us. You treat our store as your own. Where can we find somebody like you in our current society? My husband agrees with me that this is the least we can do to show our appreciation.”
