Now that it’s summer, it may be hard to think back to having the sniffles and feeling a cold coming on, but try your hardest. You probably heard from various friends and family members who swear by this remedy or that remedy. Chicken soup. Zinc. Naps. Vitamin C. Ahhh…. Vitamin C. Some people swear by it, and others think that they’re nuts. You can drink OJ, use Airborne, or take Emergen-C – my favorite. You can also swallow cheap Vitamin C pills, but that’s no fun. Airborne got slapped with a false advertising suit for making claims that their product has the “ability to cure or prevent the common cold.” They settled for $23.3 million. Emergen-C doesn’t make such aggressive claims, although they do say that their product will “give your immune system a fighting chance.” In reality, it’s not all that important. Emergen-C is absolutely delicious, especially when mixed with orange juice. If it even makes you think that you’re going to feel better after taking it, then it’s doing its job – at least we know that it’s not less effective than Airborne.

Quick, Eager, Lively

Clearly, you can tell that we keep the One Day, One Job office stocked with Emergen-C. That means that we’ve been waiting for a while to see Emergen-C post some jobs that might be of interest to our readers. They finally have. Emergen-C isn’t actually the company name, it’s Alacer Corp (Alacer means quick, eager, lively in Latin), but Emergen-C is the name that they use in all of their branding. Their Jobs page is really simple. They say, “Good jobs are a lot better than bad ones. If you work with us, you’ll be feeling the good – even at 9 am Monday…” Then they go on to list their jobs. The only job that looks well suited for new college grads is as a Graphic Designer. Most of the other jobs like Document Coordinator and Quality Control Inspector are “entry-level,” but in the way that requires a high school diploma, not a college degree. To apply for a job with Emergen-C, you can send a cover letter and resume to jobs@alacer.com with the job title in the subject line. Alacer Corp is located in Foothill Ranch, CA.
