This week at the office has been quite eventful, the sun has been shining here in sunny ol’ England and lunch by the river has been a daily occurrence.

The office is a brand new development situated on the site of an old Sunderland ship yard. Not many people know but Sunderland was once the largest shipbuilding town in the world, and although that industry is long gone it has been replaced by another one, car manufacturing. The Nissan plant is the most productive car plant in Europe which just goes to show we still know what we’re doing

But anyway, lately Dad has been working with a student on a personal level, I’m not going to reveal his name yet, but for the purposes of this blog post we will call him… “Student X”. Student X has been coming into the office a few days a week to receive personal one on one support and he seems to be really enjoying it. Although I’m not a big fan of having to make an extra cup of tea

Another thing about this week which I have been thoroughly enjoying is following my Dad’s MasterClass something which until this week I had never considered doing, but as I said in my last post I was driven to it by boredom, and I’m so glad I did. As you will probably have noticed I now have my graphics up and I think you will agree they look pretty awesome (nice one Steve) so I’ve decided I’m going to continue to follow the course, and who knows where I could end up.

Well that’s it for this post, some of us have helpdesk tickets to answer , so if your ever drifting down the river Wear keep an eye out for me and my Dad (sausage roll in hand)

Until next time,

Alex

Hi and welcome to my blog which I have just set-up today, it has taken me no longer than two hours to create and I have done it all on my own by following my Dad’s MasterClass videos.

If you haven’t already guessed by the name my Dad is well known Internet Marketer John Thornhill, now I have been working for my Dad for some time after deciding that the course I was studying at college just wasn’t for me. I had been running the PlanetSMS Helpdesk for quite a few months previous but I had to fit it around my college work which wasn’t ideal. So a couple of months ago I decided to leave college and come and work for my Dad full time in his office, using my computer for something other than online games, and its in that office now where I’m sitting writing this post.

When I came into work today I had no intention of creating a blog, but when I had finished my daily tasks (including kettle duty) and answered all the Helpdesk tickets I was stuck for things to do. So I decided to create this blog and get posting and in just a couple of hours I have already covered the first 3 weeks of the Masterclass course.

So now Ive come to the conclusion that blogging really isn’t all that hard, well at least not so far, but I still need to learn to monetize it, and that’s where Dad comes in

So that’s it for my first post don’t forget to keep checking back for more posts and office antics

Alex,
