First days at a new job are pretty terrifying, that’s a given, there’s no way around it. Some things in life are just scary.
So, you have to give newbies a bit of a break if they make small errors early on.
KFYR news anchor A.J. Clemente had one of the worst first days on record. He managed to slip in the F word and the S word before it was even his turn to talk, and then when it was his turn to talk, he came across like a blathering moron.
Yes, this is a cringe fest, but I bet you watch it twice:
Of course, the station received a bucket-load of complaints, so he’s been suspended already, which seems a shame. People really do need to chill out a bit.
Yes, he’s an idiot for swearing with a mic anywhere near him, whether he thought it was on or not, but, give him a break.
AJ summed it up nicely himself in this Tweet:
