Meet The Team #2: Peter Glücki, Technician

A look behind the scenes: Get to know Peter "Pedro" Glücki - an integral part of the Kilchenmann family since June 1, 1986. Almost four decades of experience, humor and an extra portion of team spirit: This is the man who builds our racks today and used to pull cables as thick as wrists through street shafts.

From sales to technology - a path with many stops

Peter started at Kilchenmann with a classic sales apprenticeship, later switched to field sales and even managed a branch in Ostermundigen in the meantime, at a time when Kilchenmann was still purely a radio and television store. "I realized that branch management wasn't my thing. I'm not someone who likes to give orders," he says looking back. So he returned to Kehrsatz and moved on to technology.

Initially, he went to the installation department in the days of cable network television: "We pulled in the really big cables on the street - with full physical effort." Later, the path led via the workshop to plant construction. Peter is still at home there today: as a rack builder. For many years, Peter was on site with customers every day, installing projectors, laying technology and climbing up and down ladders. "Today - also due to my age - I prefer to sit on my little chair and assemble a rack," he says.

"Favorite project? The sum of many"

Peter can't name a single favorite project. "I've been to so many places all over Switzerland." In Bern, he knows almost every house from the inside thanks to countless home deliveries. And although his heart beats for the SCL Tigers as a fan, he knows the SC Bern stadium "almost better than his own" - including the ice masters.

In private: skiing, ice hockey, motorcycles - and a ride without a rear-view mirror

In winter, Peter prefers to ski or watch ice hockey, in summer he rides his motorcycle. "Summer or winter? Both, actually." One fun fact that stuck: he set off on a riding trek in Graubünden at 3 a.m. on his motorcycle - and reflexively looked for the rear-view mirror when looking behind him on his horse.

From Peschä to Pedro - one nickname remains

At some point, Peter, Peschä, Petri became Pedro - coined by a roofer colleague and stuck in his circle of friends and family. "Even my mother calls me Pedro," he says with a laugh. He doesn't want to attribute the "Spanish fire" to himself, but he is certainly consistency personified.

For Peter, motivation is not a product of chance: "The days when I didn't feel like working can be counted on one hand." If he did, it was because of a project - "the next day it was different again". Conflicts? "Never had an argument." Instead, collegiality, reliability and a sense of humor that grounds every challenge.
