An interview with Anton by Beth O, 2023
Beth: "Hi Anton, are you ready for the first question?"
Anton: "Hi Beth, yeah sure, fire away"
Beth: "What's the biggest tip you've ever received from a customer?"
Anton: "$10 neatly folded by and older woman, and put in my hand discretely and saying "You buy yourself a beer with that, you're amazing" ... I think it may also qualify as the most awkward customer experience.
Beth: "hahahahahaha oh how.. hahahah I was not hahaha.. hang-on give me a minute"
Anton: "hahahahhah"
Beth: "hahah wow my belly is hurting.. I wasn't expecting that.. for a moment haha I was feeling sorry for you about such a small tip but then.. that was hilarious! That would have to be the funniest story yet! So did you know that question was coming up? ..where I ask what your most awkward customer experience is? "
Anton: "Yeah, I've read some of the other guy's interviews"
Beth: "haha so well lets jump to that question, Anton what is the most awkward customer experience you've ever had? Was that it? Or do you have another one for me? "
Anton: "I was mounting some TVs for a customer. I was very focussed and did not notice anything amiss. On the last TV I had to wall mount I went to check the other side of the wall, to make sure it was ok to drill where I needed to to mount the last TV on the wall. With permission I went and checked the other side of the wall and as I was leaving the room, my eyes noticed a few objects and paraphernalia and lots and lots of lube. I quickly had the realisation that I was working in a "place of business", if you catch my drift. I couldn't stop giggling for the rest of the day"
Beth: "haha. That story is gold! So Anton what is your favourite type of job? "
Anton: "Starlink installations"
Beth: "Where is your favourite place on earth? "
Anton: "Rarotonga, Cook Islands"
Beth: "Biggest achievement to date? "
Anton: "Purchasing and establishing a 2nd territory in the TV Magic business"
Beth: "Hobbies? Things you do for fun? "
Anton: "Gaming and all things technology"
Beth: "Lastly, what did you do before TV Magic?"
Anton: "I was a retail stores manager at Wesfarmers"

An Interview with Anton by Beth O, 2018
Hi Anton, what do you do in your spare time? Anton: I've always dreamed of being a helicopter pilot
What is your most favourite job of all time? Anton: Yes I really like TV Wall Mounting jobs. I do them every day and I just enjoy seeing the delight on people's faces when the job is complete.
What is your favourite TV snack? Anton: Bilton (It's like Beef Jerky)
What would you like to say to your customers of Bunbury? Anton: Well I service Bunbury and right down to Albany, as well as Mandurah & Rockingham. Two other guys service Perth. I love Bunbury and where I live. A lot of tradies come from Perth and you don't need to pay them to travel that huge distance. Call a local guy. Every since I started this business in Mandurah several years ago I know I've given the competition a run for their money! haha .. I guess thats what happens when you put the customer first and you have better install experience.
