Worst ever first minute on the job?

A.J. Clemente's first night at the anchor desk for Bismarck NBC affiliate KFYR has ended with him being suspended for using profanity that has shocked viewers

IT was AJ Clemente's first day on the job and he was a little nervous. Who isn't??

But most people's first-day work blunders are not broadcast to thousands of viewers and don't include double-barrell profanities.

News presenter AJ Clemente launched into his first-ever broadcast as a weekend news anchor for KFYR by saying "F*ckin sh*t!" into a live microphone.

Clearly thrown by her new colleague's colourful language, his co-presenter tried to quickly move things on by getting Clemente to introduce himself.

But Clemente later tweeted what many viewers were probably thinking:

His bosses obviously agreed.

Clemente was immediately suspended for his on-air blunder as KFYR-TV's news director, Monica Hannan, posted the following message on the station's website and facebook page.

But as the video clip quickly spread around the web, many labelled Clemente's suspension unfair and called for the young news anchor to be reinstated by the TV station. It wasn't long before #keepAJ started trending on Twitter.
What do you think? Was suspending Clemente a little harsh? Have you ever had a horror first day on the job? Tell us about it below.
