The writers won't let him.
So true
-won’t- *can’t*
Nick just pays squidward to stay
and makes Squidward worst and pain. yea writers won't and eat shit except for paul Tibbit
"The writers were cheap and caring but they HATED Squidward quitting the show 🎶" 'Animanicas reference'
"Why doesn't Squidward just quit at this point?"
He did, multiple times. But even then, Mr. Krabs and SpongeBob won't leave him alone. They would just come up with a way to *force* him back into the job, even if it means hurting him. So he's damned of he does, damned if he doesn't. Either way, he'd be miserable.
Remember SquidVille episode?
Squid was once in a life where he felt happy there. Looks like he could also get a job there. He can stay there indefinitely. He could choose to stay forever. But he chose to return. Of course he still remembers the address of the Squidvile and he can come back any time he wants. But somehow there are no episodes that show him returning to Squidville.
exactly. so how come you could say that in two sentences, but mr cartoon guy has to stretch it out into a 18 minute video
@@briman2000 Because Mr Cartoon Guy wanted to pander for that ad revenue money and to shill out his reddit to people.
Aka, Mr Cartoon Guy is a sellout. Full stop.
@@trollking6315 spoken like a poet. Mr cartoon guy should take some lessons from you on how to get to the point. Absolute trash content, two-bit Alex Bale
Actually Squidward simply wasn't able to get a job on his own. He had been homeless for months after leaving the Krusty Krab, and it was not Spongebob or Mr. Krab's fault, he just can't find a job elsewhere.
this is exactly why band geeks is such a great episode with a great ending. seeing squidward happy or finally winning at something is why fans like it so much.
Yeah more episodes should be written like band geeks. It's almost written in the same format as this episode, only instead of Squidward being miserable the whole time, the people who would normally ruin his life, are the ones that make it better.
There were a few episodes where Squidward wins after that.

I honestly feel bad for squidward. He's my favorite character with his quippy humor. And yeah, he used to get consequences for being a snarky jerk, then you have episodes where spongebob and patrick destroy his house and he has nothing to do with the episode other than to be depressed. Someone said it best "We start the show relating to spongebob, and end relating to squidward".
Tom Kenny said that I believe.
It’s sad tho like I can relate to squidward and I don’t like working working with a co worker that annoyes the shi out of me comes 7 am and I can guarantee u that people fake call out being sick every 4 weeks cuz there tired of waking up early, or they h8 there job and they just want a break
Me too.
quippy- a clever witty remark
This comment is giving me flashbacks of Sister Sam.
honestly squidward was sick. He needed a mental health day and mental health is just as important as physical health
Right!? I, and I'm sure a lot of other people as well, can actually relate to the episode's dream because WE'VE had dreams like that, all because of the hellish place we worked or went to school to (and oftentimes still are to this day).
Jay's line about the dream being based on Squidward's awful reality is so dead-on to that it's scary, because this is EXACTLY what happens to some people in real life. Not the cartoon aspects, but being stuck in a job you hate with terrible people that hound you over problems THEY create and blame you for. And those people rarely get justice because so many people value money over other people's lives.
What Squidward's dealing with is freaking Post Traumatic Stress Disorder! It' not "like PTSD", no it IS PTSD. Those who read this and go "pfft, young people can't get PTSD", or "only soldiers have to deal with it", *THEN YOU CAN SHOVE IT.* I've been diagnosed with it since I was a teen and for EIGHT YEARS I've been dealing with nightmares about the worst of the schools I went to. Even now, with better medication, it's still not 100% fixed and it might never be because I'm not sure that's possible. Anyone at ANY age is able to get PTSD, people, and it can have destructive impacts on ANYBODY.
Just from this review this episode disturbs me. Just... why are they so insistent on torturing a character that just wants to be left alone? Why? Why is that too much to ask, just to be left in peace? Squidward isn't incapable of being in the wrong or hurting somebody, but the trouble he has to deal with, the "retribution", is way too disproportionate. Especially those times when he's not hurting anybody AT ALL!
What, is he the staff's punching bag? A character to take their anger and stress out on? It's totally fine to make a private character for that purpose, but first: Squidward was NOT originally created with that intention, and second: instead of keeping this to themselves they are instead making absolutely sure that kids see this trash, which can lead to many of them thinking that it's okay to torment quiet, introverted people on a daily basis JUST because they want to be left alone.
Don't think it's possible? This is a strange world, people, and it's best to keep an open mind.
@@GoldLeafGardenia I’m trying to figure out why Mr Krabs wasn’t arrested for literally sending Spongebob to “cure” or torture Squidward. Squidward just needed some time to recuperate that’s all. Mr Krabs is like, I guess I’ll spy on you and send spongebob to do my bidding
Not just Bosses... to be honest Society itself often have still stigmatas and prejustice against people with Mental health issues.
Especially with things like Ptsd (like Gold explained good that EVERYONE can have it) or well... Depression. It is one of the most common mental health problems but often dont taken seriously. Becauce most react "You are just sad stop bitching"
or worse think you just fish for attention....
But it's nickelodeon so... not gonna happen
@@roysagi15 you watched an entire video on why squidward doesn't quit.
imagine this episode makes spongebob actually "properly" takes care of squidward and squidward actually gains a sense of respect towards spongebob and gains motivation to work again, I think that would've been a better idea
I bet someone got fired when they said that
It would have completely changed the show's formula if Squidward was happy with his job
Wasn’t there a whole episode about that though? And Squidward just took advantage of SpongeBob until SpongeBob snapped.
@@theworstdadjoke6518 maybe the costumers would torment squidward again but since squidward knows spongebob has his back it will become more bearable.
RIGHT??? LIKE JUST MAKE A WHOLESOME EPISODE
This episode actually is really hurtful bc it shows that people can't take day off for their mental problems, only when they are physically sick. And it's not like he was faking sickness just to be lazy, he wanted to take day off to be himself: paint, make music, relax, it was his mental health day.
if youre sick they still expect you to work feeling like shit and making everyone else sick. the intelligence of bosses is extremely low. its like sending a sick kid to school like yea lets just make everyone else sick for no good reason.
Womp Womp
That’s the massive issue with the puritan linked American “work ethic” I say this as someone who is religious. The whole “working is next to godliness” is the biggest load of bullshit I’ve ever seen.
We need to be more cognizant of peoples mental health, our god would want us to be sure our neighbors are taken care of mentally, physically, and emotionally. It’s agitating to see this whole “if you can walk you can work” mindset because I come from the Amish, which are close to puritans, they have the SAME mindset and it’s just plain stupid.
I’m not even going to say “bosses care more about your employees” because let’s face it most bosses aren’t real men, they’re the fake wannabe men who use money to cover Insecurity. REAL men care about their employees on a level that means the employee doesn’t even need to call for a mental health day because the boss sees it and offers it to them.
End of rant sorry for going off like that I hope your day is wonderful and i am sending good mental thoughts and health your way.
The concept of “mental health days” really pisses me off
@@zombieblaster5754 the public isn't much better. I was at work with a respiratory infection because we were low staffed, and as I'm on the floor dying this customer is still asking me questions 😑
The only time i can say Squidward won ... well had a big break... was that episode where he handled the band for the Super Bowl. That episode and song is still awesome to me to this day
This was the first time when we saw him unironically smiling
The only time I've ever seen him happy literally in my life
Band Geeks is my fave episode because Squidward faces a lot and is knocked down but rises to the occasion and is rewarded for the hard times he endured. Seeing Squidward win ONE TIME made that episode already the best. And the humor in that episode was top notch, not to mention Sweet Victory is a great song.
Nah, that was definitely a win
You know what yeah he did won that episode he gained respect and beat squiliam he won
In the episode _Can You Spare a Dime?_ Squidward does quit his job. However, he is unable to find a new job and becomes homeless. This is why Squidward can not quit his job.
why cant he just get a casier job at a nother resterant or a shop
@@oliverknowles847 I feel like all the other restaurants we’ve seen either wouldn’t see any promise in him or would think he has too poor of a personality.
@@justin2308 true
I think his lazy sour demeanor would get him fired from any other cashier job. For some reason, Krabs is the only one who puts up with it.
@@unoriginalusername1748 we've seen though Squidward wasnt always so sour. Its only once spongebob shows up. So if squidward were to get a new job somewhere else he would be a lot happier and no longer sour. It would also allow the creators to add a new cashier character for the Krusty Krab.
The older you become, the more you empathize with Squidward
Even younger too
fr. i feel like a season 1-3 spongebob but empathise really hard for squidward lol
I just feel bad for Squidward he's precious and deserves compassion!
Same. He's my fav character.

I wonder why Squidward hasn't tried to resort to violence either. Like straight up beating Spongebob's ass if he so much as knocks on the door.
Sad thing is, that won’t work.
Spongebob is immune to physical harm remember? It’s a sad reality for Squidward.
Too violent for the kiddies I think
Though I would love to see Squidward beat up Spongebob
@@greyfang8694
Oh yeah I forgot Spongebob
Is immune to physical damage
Spongebob won’t feel that shit, remember that episode where that bully was punching him and spongebob was laughing and not giving a shit. Spongebob can’t be beaten bruh
@@bubbachildsupport4535
So true
What's even crazier is that Mr.Krabs is willing to send SpongeBob, who is his only cook, to Squidward house on a work day just to torture Squidward for calling out. Assuming Krabs isn't cooking for the customers, he's more willing to give up money just to send a message to Squidward.
@Plankton Love seeing him lose money or chances at money. You feeling it now Mr.Krabs?
wait
So mr krabs values torturing squidward MORE than making money: his whole character
Damn yeah when i first saw i was like "wtf!!?" 😂
@Plankton damn plankton 🤣🤣
There's a reason I made a Dead by Daylight killer chase theme for him
“I order the food, you cook the food. The customer gets the food. We do that for 𝟰𝟬 𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘀 and then we die.”
Sounds like a pretty good deal to me. What do you say?
...but One Eternity Later, they're still working for Mr. Krabs as undead skeletons.
We're halfway there
@@dog8438 ...halfway there

Squidward on a chair...?
I think constantly watching Squidward being tortured throughout my whole life is the reason I'm often way more empathetic to villains and antagonists then other people.
There has been a lot of times where I wanted to see squidward win. There were even some older episodes where I would root for squidward and go against SpongeBob
Agree
More episodes should be written like band geeks. One of few episodes where Squidward wins.
Right, especially that Kelp Forest episode the fact Squidward was fully rejected by both Spongebob Patrick and that other Camper made me felt sick inside tbh
That's half the fun I guess. Always root for Squidward, always let down.
I can't wait for the season 48 episode

Better episode idea: Squidward pretends to be sick and SpongeBob goes to take care of him. He expect SpongeBob to be annoying but he actually does a good job taking care of him. Squidward feels happier and less stress about going to work the next day. Why can't we just have a wholesome episode?

Reason I stopped watching spongeBob since a small part of season 9? That's it, right there, it just got worse, and worse, and worse. The only episodes I treat myself to are the ones that inge from the small part of season 9 that were actually good, and that's it. Because its honestly become so painful to watch.
YES YOUR HONOR THATS THE EPISODE I WANT TO SEE
Squidward better ease up or spongebob gonna explode with rage again they should both meet halfway spongebob should respect squidward and his privacy squidward should appreciate spongebob for when he does something good
Id watch this episode
The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie actually had Squidward ascending to manager of the Krusty Krab 2, signalling a clear sense of progression for Squidward (sending a message to children that putting up with adversity and working hard would get you somewhere)
Now, I’m not sure what’s going on
Yh but that was taken away as soon as sponge bob proved he could be just as capable as squidward..and ever since he had always got manager in most episodes after that..
@@shadyshadow7167 he didn't want it anyway
"Work hard and it will get you somewhere" is still the biggest lie in life
At this point the writers have a jar with 3 pieces of paper, they pull out 2 and combine them to make an episode:
1) Spongebob and Patrick scream or cry for 11 minutes
2) Squidward is misserable for 11 minutes
3) Plankton tries to get the secret formula
"Why doesn't squidward just quit?" He did. 3 times. Sponge bob stalked him till he took his job back
Or he became homeless or couldn't find another job and was pretty much forced back
He did quit and ended up good the time he went to work for plankton but then got beat up and became a literal door mat for Mr Krabs
and this is why squidward doesn’t quit
He has before and is terrified that will happen again
@@pokemonfanj yes I watched that episode today
It's probably hard to get another job and he obviously needs a job to survive
He even moved away where he stayed with a bunch of squids well he has Stockholm syndrome from being harassed so many times by SpongeBob and Patrick he went back
The whole concept of Squidward constantly suffering isn’t necessarily for laughs but to show how poorly fast food employees are treated and how difficult it can be to get out of that cycle. Fast food employees deserve our respect and I learned that through Spongebob no matter how stupid that may seem.
Yes as long as they treat YOU nicely. If a fast food employee is just a jerk then they deserve to serve all the karens.
Similar how it is to work at a supermarket. So many people look down at use even we probaly have ONE of the most important jobs in society.
I work retail…… that’s all I’m gonna say.
I never worked at a fast food restaurant, but is it really that bad?
@@remaks3929 Well, working in customer service is pretty much the same. I imagine food service is worse though. All the stories I’ve heard from people who work in fast food. You’d be surprised how incompetent and rude customers are.
I had a lady get mad at me because she went behind my register and I told her not to. Had another guy come in and harass one of my coworkers. He was white, old and carried a golf club around. Was being racist to our customers (they were Indian, he was hitting on the woman and the man got angry because that was his wife. Dude said “Sorry man, thought that was your daughter. You know how Indians are cradle robbers”) and kept trying to hit on my coworker (who looked like she was 12-14. You had to be at least 18 to work there but most customers don’t know that). The coworker from my department went to hers, cussed the guy out, called security cause he was escalating, and the police had to show up. Turns out he was banned from like 8 stores in a span of 6 months because of this shit and kept stalking the women. The girl had to work in the back with one of my good friends. Poor girl, it was only her 2nd day. We didn’t see her after that, guess she quit. Asked my friend what happened to her and he said he had no idea.
Those are just two instances. I have plenty more stories. Was only there for 3 months. One thing about that job, there was never a boring day. Idk what was in the air because I haven’t had any experiences like that anywhere else I worked. Most days were chill. But that place… idk what the hell was up. The customers, coworkers, and bosses especially was on crack.
Squidward is probably one of the few main characters that is actually a decent person. He may be grumpy and mean at times but that isnt really that bad, compared to how spongebob is always destructive and endangers people's lives (mrs. puff), Patrick most of the time just seems stupid but he can get mean to a much more destructive point than squidward (abusing squidward and selling his ink in a later episode), Krabs over-works his employees and even sold spongebob's soul, and plankton forced everyone in the town to wear buckets on their heads and come to his restauraunt.
Working fast food makes me relate to squidward so much more than I ever thought I would
When i was a kid i never understood Squidward and why hes so negative compared to Spongebob, but as a adult he gets to be more relatable
He is THE most relatable character in Spongebob as a whole

as a child, i was always very disturbed and sad to see squidward get shit on all the time. some of my favorites were when spongebob and him were able to work together and squidward had a glimmer or character development. i also never poercieved him as lazy, tbh to me he was always just the sane one. he sees how illogical everything is but is always put in situations with those people. he works really hard and has a lot of really awesome hobbies and he never gets honored or rewarded for it

From experience, I take this episode as an accurate representation of what the American retail/food workforce is like. Bosses are rough on you, customers are worse. After a while you can develop symptoms of ptsd, and have a mental break. Some people think the job is "easy" (which is why low minimum wage is okay in their eyes), but retail and food are some of the toughest jobs. You're on your feet all day, getting hollered at by people who are angry at you, for something out of your control, you barely get paid enough for rent, and in some places, you go to another crappy retail/food job after, just to make sure you can make rent. This whole episode just screams that squidward is having a mental break due to how he's treated. 🙃 spongebob doesn't get treated well by krabs there either, but he's too oblivious and nïeve notice. 🤷♀️
I'm pretty sure Squidward has quit multiple times in the show and he just keeps coming back. He either comes back because he needs the money or because of plot convenience.
He quit in Can you Spare a Dime, Chum Fricassee, and Frozen Krabby Patty. I guess you can count Big Pink Looser but that was just a throwaway gag.
@@icecreamhero2375 technically he also quits in Krusty Towers, though it was mostly to enact revenge on Mr. Krabs for forcing him to put up with everything else in the episode up to that point by immediately checking in as a guest instead

I grew up with spongebob, as a kid i always felt bad for squidward. Now that i work in retail his nightmare felt so real, that industry is as toxic as his nightmare. I literally had that nightmare before going to work that i actually became sick and fainted. Its motivating me to quit cause i or squidward doesn't deserve the mental torment.
I relate to Squidward so much, so him never being happy messes with me mentally.
I relate to Squidward mentally and to SpongeBob's work ethic, and now, I'm thinking I should quit my job.
Squidward's an adult with bills to pay. Just like us we stay at places we absolutely hate but we need the money.
I’m sorry but never believed in that excuse. Idc what anybody says, quit your job if you hate it so much. There are thousands of jobs around you. You’ll find one you like. That money ain’t gonna be with you in the casket. Happiness is more important
@@captainvann4526 So just quit and hope that another one will just so happen to be available? Problem with your idea is that jobs aren't guaranteed. Especially seeing as most of those thousands of jobs either require specific certification, specific education, years of experience, or just knowing someone in that particular field. Many people do what you do and either end up losing their home or having to go back to their original job.
Also money provides security which is one of the key tenants for happiness. The idea that money doesn't provide happiness is a ridiculous idea often said by people who do have money. Go to a single mother living pay check to pay check. Stressing every day whether if she can feed her children today, and tell her that she wouldn't be happier with money to pay the bills and eat.
@@captainvann4526 remember that one episode where he got sick of working and quit when he did he ended up being homeless and beaten down by the world around Him
@@captainvann4526 that sounds like something someone who has privilege would say not saying you do that’s just generally the way those types of people think which is pretty tone deaf and not centered in reality
@@captainvann4526 - This is a bit of a blanket statement that doesn't really work for a lot of people, but I do think it's important to not settle and to look for more job opportunities so you can leave your current job once you've secured a different one that will still keep you afloat.
That said, for how horrendously Mr. Krabs pays them, I doubt the paycheck is doing all that much for Squidward, lol. My guy might as well at least look around for a new job and apply, although considering how poorly every single thing he tries to do to take control of his own life is immediately and irreversibly ruined by Spongebob and sometimes Patrick too, I doubt it would work out. Squidward probably doesn't try to leave because it seems pointless to try when it probably won't work and will cause him more trouble anyway.
Mr Krabs owns his soul that why Squidward can’t quit
But Squidward has no soul...
Not even worth 62 cents in his eyestalks.😅
Lol
Ah greedy krabs must eat shit
Lowkey makes sense
i hate the fact that krabs is SO GREEDY, he uses one of his ONLY TWO EMPLOYEES to annoy the other one, which would leave krabs to be the only one at the krusty krab, instead of having his ONLY COOK stay at the work place
I know right? It's been shown multiple times that the Krusty Krab cannot succeed without Spongebob and then he just... shows up when he's supposed to be at work.
He tried to quit in one episode (that I recall), and ended up on the streets.
Also that nightmare indicates (to me) that his job may have caused him to develop some kind of anxiety and maybe even PTSD.
Although, dreams are weird.
At this point the show's creators have abused Squidward even more than I've abused Cloud.
Agreed.
now that's saying something
You should really leave Cloud alone and let him live a normal life.
@@PlahaKumar Letting Cloud have nice things isn't very entertaining. The boy needs to know his place.
@@cradiculous But he needs nice things for once in his life.
There actually was an episode like that in Tom and Jerry. In medieval times Tom was basically in charge of protecting of some food for party, Jerry and his annoying cousin obviously came in and ruined it despite Tom not provoking them and Tom was fokin beheaded in the end for failing.
Then the one where Tom was playing the piano and Jerry was constantly annoying him which understandably caused him to retaliate. Then of course at the end of the episode jerry comes out on top
Some tom and Jerry episodes are just that sorta bullshit where Tom just tries to do his own thing and jerry instigates and in the end tom gets punished
Tom is such a chill dude when he ain't chasing jerry
Po
I remember that. I used to love that episode until I rewatched it...
What they should’ve done is a Ferris Bueller’s Day off scenario. Make Squidward play hooky from work (not because of a PTSD like experience, just cause he’s being lazy) and have Mr. Krabs send Spongebob out to go follow Squidward around (like the principal in the movie). They could’ve done a whole spoof, made some good slapstick, and not made the show seem mean spirited.
8:51 The painting and Squidward's reaction gave me a good chuckle,.. and re-watching it keeps making me chuckle!
The fact episodes like this are being made now. Squidward faking sick because he knows it sucks to work at the Krusty krab and just wants a break from it, then Mr krabs getting spongebob to “take care” of him. Sponge Bob was just putting his long nose in Squidward’s business while squidward was suffering from it and spongebob just continues to make him suffer. Then of course when he’s basically forced into going back, his nightmare becomes a reality. It really feels like they writers think “Squidward torture + wacky (not in a good way) animation= Content”.
@ANTHONY RICHARDS yeah it’s annoying in fact they do a lot of the same episodes Squidward getting Abused by Spongebob Spongebob trying to past his boating test only to fail once again and Plankton trying run Krabs out of business which also always fails these episodes are done a lot so they do the same idea I realized
A little before Hillenburg passed things were on the decline, man.
I kinda disagree as Squidward suffering is a nice window into reality, Squidward is like most people, working a job they hate and don't want to be at, and acting respectful not to get fired from his job.
@@whoisheiforgothisname2103 I don’t watch spongebob because I want to see a person who wants to die as much as I do. That’s just straight up masochism
@@creed8712 Media for me is to feel different range of emotions like light-hearted moments to balance the sad moments. But knowing the spongebob writers, they probably think it will make the kids laugh if Squidward is always miserable.
I feel like Plankton fell into the same trap as Squidward... in Friend or Foe, it's revealed that Mr. Krabs and Plankton created the formula together for their own selfish reasons, and in the end, Plankton ended up getting the short end of the stick. He deserves that formula just as much as Krabs.
True it’s just that planktons version of spongebob is mr krabs they both deserve respect I used to see krabs as a good guy and plankton as a bad guy but now I see mr krabs is the real villain
But does Krabs really deserve that formula?
@@briantyler3474 no. But i dont think plankton needs the formula. Just frickin be a scientist! You made so much cool stuff dude
@@juanstaroldchannel3553 but if he is the co creator of the formula, he has just as mich right on it.
i agree w this comment lol
i’ve always viewed spongebob as a naive curious child, and squidward a beaten down depressed corporate adult. i think it’s a great social commentary in the form of an easily consumable cartoon
That’s how it used to be
Best Squidward episodes are Pizza Delivery and Band Geeks. It was genuinely heartwarming to see Squidward get back at the guy who turned SpongeBob’s pizza down. Little things like that show that even if he can get annoying, Squidward does genuinely care about him a bit. The joy of Squidward episodes where he gets crapped on are he usually did something to warrant it and it serves as his comeuppance. Seeing him be crapped on for literally no reason is genuinely sad. As the adult audience surrogate, our boi deserves better, give him another Band Geeks.
And there was that one episode where Mr. Krabs happily sells SpongeBob to the Flying Dutchman so he would avoid being sent to Davy Jones locker and get a few measly cents, and Squidward scolds him for giving away SpongeBob. Definitely one of the more admirable moments of Squidward.
In conclusion, this episode is an allegory for what most people deal with in retail and try to avoid at retail but it happens either way. I’m dealing with annoying customers, co workers and a boss that pays me next to nothing.
So it’s best to quit for the mental health.
Some people literally can't handle this kind of job.
That sums up what Im going through except I rarely run into annoying customers, it's the boss that gets on my nerve plus the stress from school ☠
I worked in retail for 3 years and have had nightmares about it despite being out of it for almost 2 years now.
@Otneimica Ignoring when someone says you're closed
but what is Squidward gonna live off from when he quits? Does Squidward even have enough free time to look for a new job? And even if Squidward does get a job interview with a new job, I highly doubt Krabs would give Squidward a good review, and Squidward will barely find something good to tell about this job.
I'll be honest, "take one of these and call me in the morning" actually got a chuckle outta me.
the angle from which they drew spongebob too fgjkbdb
Wheres the F U N
He has no more employees I just realized lol
Every time I see an episode like this, I'd ignore it for eternity. I don't like the fact that Squidward has to suffer through all of this. He deserves better. RIGHT!
The older I get, the more I relate to Squidward

Remember when Squidward actually stood up for Spongebob? When they got lost delivering pizza to a customer, who didn't want to pay for the pizza, because they didn't deliver the customer's drink? When Spongebob was made upset, Squidward, in that moment, became a bro, and backed Spongebob up. And his reward? Comedic despair. That's the most relatable Squidward I know, because I have friends that I sometimes can't stand, but we ride or die together all the same. That's the Squidward I wanna see more of, not him being tortured...just because he's everything Spongebob isn't.
It's possible, he can be a more redeemable character. And I don't mean the episode of him putting together the band. I don't consider that a victory for Squidward, because all the characters in the band had to 'imagine' someone that they endear, IN PLACE OF Squidward, to actually perform well. If Squidward mattered to anyone, it was Spongebob, but he had to rally with a different imagery in mind for everyone.
We’ve seen what would happen to squidward without his job in the episode “will you spare a dime”
I think squidward was always meant to be the most relatable. The fact that he always gets beat down for no reason is supposed to show how messed up life can get. How if you don't go along with peoples games, no matter what you do, people will always see you as the bad guy.

This is just one of this you only get it when you’re older. You’ve seen the thing as a child you relate to SpongeBob and/or Patrick but as an adult it’s squidward and most of the time you don’t even notice the change
Honestly, it appears Squidward called in sick because he can't take the mental pressure, so it seems pretty sensible. He obviously struggles hard with his job and needed a break that day, and I think that is fine. Mental health is as important as physical health.
Honestly Squidward's dream hit me way too hard for it to be a coincidence.
I work in fast food, and the shit I put up with actually has given me nightmares that keep me up and make my job even worse.
I've given up so many of my hobbies just so I can keep getting paid, and I barely have time or energy to contact my doctors for my allergy, eczema, and asthma medication, which results in a shittier time and feeds back into the cycle.
I'm in a position where I can't just quit, since I don't want to be without some form of income, but I desperately want to leave so badly.
I feel for Squidward on a spiritual level. He doesn't deserve any of the shit he gets, and it's all because his coworker is incompetent, his boss is greedy, and customers are braindead. Shit that I also have to deal with daily.
In both of our lives, the job would at least be bearable if those three factors didn't exist.
I have been through those same struggles beore, and let me tell you, your health comes first, you'll make it through this, but you must value your health even if it risks your payment, it's not worth dropping to the floor in a deadly stress induced condition over
I've lost people that way
@@Diretance Having a job so stressful it causes you nightmares and depression isn't a cartoon

@@Diretance Even kids cartoons can have something to say.
@@Diretance you missed the point.
I hope squid ward will quit, and he will start painting. He will start painting his trauma, and it will be so deep, it will sell among emo kids. He will start painting about his new life, and it will make peoples' day. Then he will paint about others who went through situations like him, and become a memorable artist. Thus, inspiring so many people. Later on, he befriends sponge bob, the owner of the Krusty Krab, because he is more self aware, yet still playful like a child. Then, he retires. As he is in retirement, he will play his clarinet, paint, and dance. The End.

The thing is, this is life for many. Work a crappy job, customers are mean, managers demand you work til you die, no time for life and no energy for fun. Squidward is so fun to watch because he says and does all the things people in his position wish they could say or do. Squidward is every person who has ever worked in food service.
Or retail. Works too.
That's so true... 😭

“Why doesn’t Squidward quit at this point?”
Well, aside from the show being ended or whatever and in terms of story, from what I know Squidward pretty much has no other option to live his life considering he quit once in an episode and instantly lost everything he ever had.
I am astounded that this UA-cam video even exists when there is already a pre-movie episode where Squidward quit. Squidward cant quit because he is a loser that can't do anything else in life.
See Season 3 "Can You Spare a Dime?"
@@marlon6598 Can we not forget the episode where Squid does quit and moves to his entho-city? He didn't have to work at the Krusty Krab, he CAN leave. They made him depressed afterwards but he can most definitely quit and not be homeless.
@@PolarRook I thought he only moved to a HOA in that episode, not also quit his job. Did he really quit his job that episode? Because he straight-up yells in Spongebob's face in "Can you Spare a Dime" that he is a loser incapable of doing anything besides being a cashier at the Krusty Krab.
@@marlon6598 it’s not even that he’s a loser, he simply has huge aspirations for himself, but fails to recognize his flaws. Squidward’s failures fall on him with his high opinion of himself.
I don’t believe Squidward is a loser. He’s an aspiring artist, musician, and glamorizes a better life for himself. But he needs to be humbled and relinquish his envy of others such as Squilliam Fancyson.
I think Squidward could go anywhere, but he has to change or he’ll never go where he wishes to be.
@@Polomance862 Well-said
Squidward is the quite introvert that loves the arts and being alone... I loved him as a kid because I could relate more to him then the extroverted Spongebob... He is treated like a punching bag just because he is the opposite of the protagonist so he has to fill the antagonist roll... When Spongebob "wins" its like okay he is suppose to win big whoop, but when Squidward "wins" it feels earned. Setting this precedent of extraverts can't be wrong and introverts are always wrong is not healthy...
Squidward deserves to be in peace because he never catches a break he needs a break

A dream about being overstimulated, people demanding all these things of you but not giving you the time to do them, people being blissfully unaware of your plight while adding to it... it was horrible
Honestly, Squidward really DOES need a break at this point. He’s gone through so much already. At this point, SpongeBob is now a much more dislikable character, while Squidward is more likable. He does nothing wrong nowadays, and still receives some horrible method of punishment. At this point, he’s literally the perfect description of bad luck. Working at minimum wage, having a horrible boss, living between 2 annoying as hell neighbors, suffering for doing nothing bad, etc.
That strudel scene is more powerful than is expressed . They imply by pointing out the multiple “layers” that he made a butter laminate, this is by no means a simple quick breakfast. It might have taken squidward 3 days to make that strudel that Patrick ate with no remorse. Further making me believe that squidward is in his own personal hell.

Even as a kid I've always wanted an episode where Squidward gets lucky and at least happy for a day (A whole day, kinda like the Squidward's Tiki land episode) , the plot just keeps bullying him.

Ngl that part caught me off guard 💀💀💀
GYAATTT
As much as I grew up and wanted to turn out like Spongebob, the older I am, the more I relate to Squidward, especially in a job that included customers. I was a cashier as well, and it left me having nightmares about my own job as well. The thing that I will probably take a long time to escape this cycle of jobs is even scarier. I don't blame him for faking physical sickness cuz he clearly needs a mental health break as well. Mental health is just as important as physical, and if Squidward's tired from his job, no wonder he calls in sick. He actually is sick, his mind is traumatized and so he needs to stay home, and saddest thing is that most of the time if it's not a broken bone, employers will just call you lazy and probably fire you for being inneficent. They just keep forgetting we are not robots that can work 24/7 without rest and sleep. If you're sick mentally, you can get sick physically too. People don't realize this until they're in that position as Squidward.
And with some people saying Spongebob doing nothing wrong and just wants to spend time with Squidward cuz he's his friend? Not really true, Spongebob is not understanding and patient enough to give Squidward a break until Squidward has to force him out of the house, it's Spongebob not understanding boundaries that always makes me mad. It's really saddening that Squidward is an introverted individual who just wants to do his hobbies, even if he's not that "good" at music and painting, if it's fun for him, who cares, I wish he could just have a long ass vacation and escape this misery of a job and life :(
In the episode where he's in a world of white and some colorful blocks, it's also sad to see that he doesn't want to be alone. I just wish somebody could show him understanding and space, and actually critisize his form of art critically, not just make fun of him for being "bad". There's so much I love about Squidward and so much I can relate to on a personal level. All of these aspects and more are actually driving him to be suicidal. As children we see it as haha funny grumpy adult but I actually turned out to be like him and I'm only 22 years old.

mr krabs literally sold spongebob in a episode for 42 cents ofc he likes hurting he would do anything for money
I had to re read this out loud. That’s so sad
Nah, NO WAY. There is nothing that "Eugene H. Krabs" likes more than money. I mean sure, he may have given SpongeBob a day off to torment Squidward, but I don't think there's anyone who'll overlook the time were he sold SpongeBob's soul for 62 cents.
Before watching the video: the same reason none of us quit the jobs we hate. He knows what to expect, the income is steady, and believe it or not I think squidward actually likes spongebob annoying him. It’s one of the few things that keep his life interesting.
"Or I'll fill your life with misery and woe... even if you quit."
The plot is basically:
Character tortures Character
Chaos ensues
Endings:
Tortured Character gets abused even more or Tormenting Character gets Karma

Whuu,so grim and twisted.
Not karma
Part of this makes me wonder if that's partly why today's kids are so nasty today
Can you Spare a Dime answered why Squidward doesn’t quit, but at this point I think him being homeless on the street might actually be better for his mental health if this episode is anything to go by

Well he had a chance to quit and go with Jim on the Jim episode because Jim cared for squidward and wanted him and Jim to start their own restaurant. Squidward didn’t take that and ended up stuck as a cashier because he had nothing to fall back on. He had the chance to quit but didn’t take it

SpongeBob final episode
Squidward enters the Krusty Krab with a shotgun and shoots Mr Krabs and Spongebob, alongside the customer in the restaurant. Afterwards, Squidward turns the gun on himself and the episode ends with the sound of the shotgun being fired.
The whole episode would have been fixed if you just had Squidward fail to show up to work and Spongebob showing genuine concern and asking Mr.Krabs why Squidward hasn't shown up to work. After being informed that Squidward is sick it would be in character for Spongebob to go check on him.
When they decide to end the series they should let squidward have a W & either become a famous artist or musician in the finale
With the way things are going now I seriously doubt it

A conclusion to this episode where Squidward finally breaks and tells Spongebob the real reason he’s skipping work, only for Spongebob to shock him by being very supportive and understanding, would be a genius plot point. If Spongebob allocated for Squidward to Mr. Krabs, there could at least be a moral lesson where Squidward finds work unbearable and, with the help of a friend he’s reached out to, goes and communicates his issue to fix it. Also I’m baked to shit right now so this might be really stupid but that’s the conclusion I came to
Remember that April Fool's episode where Squidward bullies SpongeBob? I think that's the only moment where Squidward ever deserved karma.
No Squidward was just trying to get revenge and took it way to far
@@pokemonfanj and since he took it too far, he deserved karma
What about the first Christmas special when he was being an a$$hole to SpongeBob the whole time
@@inlovewithnana yeah but wasn't that episode ended with spuidward giving away presents and being nice or something like that
My point is that in past episodes where he was actually being rude he ended up doing something nice
tbh that episode squidward is justified. If I worked with sponge Bob we would have had a fist fight by now. And if I lived next to him and his friend. Ya I'd be a threat to them. Stay away. The sponge just got his all at once. When people snap after taking alot that's what happens. The April fools day episode
Since Squidward is hated by most of Bikini Bottom, if he were to quit, no one but Mr. Krabs would hire him.
Thats my explanation at least.
Then leave town
@@ForrestFox626 Why can't that be a plot for a movyoe special?
It could just be a Squidward & Squilliam Plot.
@@ForrestFox626 He tried it when moving to Squidville. He got bored of it, since he was too tired of doing the same thing every day, while not having to put up with Spongebob and Patrick’s nonsense.
@@pepearown4968 Then find a neighborhood like that
@@pepearown4968 Kinda ironic when he does that pretty much everyday.
It’s crazy seeing you talk about these episodes I watched the everyday growing up not know what I was watching one day would become
Squidward was once the adult character showing a normal guy in an underpaid job day in day out. He was the other side of spongebob but had also a kind and childish side now he is just a punching back
Y'know, I actually do remember a good amount of Tom & Jerry episodes where Tom's minding his business and Jerry starts problems. Heck, I remember seeing on at least 2 occasions that Tom just straight up caught Jerry and the episode ended with triumphant music and everything
@@carswellcarswell2593 And,Tom doesn't really care too much about Jerry's antics unless his owner forces him to handle Jerry.
@@Spingerex ANd Emler did kill bugs at the end of Opera
I remember a game or something for Tom and Jerry. Or maybe it was a dream. But either way it was one of my first memories.
@@nicholassims9837 "What do you expect? A happy ending?"
@@nicholassims9837 Bugs was faking remember?
Real talk, as someone who felt stuck in the exact situation as that episode before Covid managed to give me an out, I think I can offer some insight to his character/what the writers might be doing with Squidward's character.
1) Dreaming about your workplace often means that you already spend too much time there (or that your subconcious self believes so, at least). Now, having deadass actual *NIGHTMARES* about going to work, especially like the one shown in the episode, are often an indicator that you are on the verge of a mental break regarding somewhere that you both conciously and subconciously believe you have been far too much and causes you great stress. Just wanted to say that based on my experience. (I'm literally on pills to treat a recent Anxiety Disorder caused from the stress of the job I felt trapped at, and tbh, i had SO MANY of those nightmares.)
2) Squidward is shown to be a functioning adult paying for his house still, having expensive hobbies, and enjoying the finer things in life. He NEEDS a job. The problem is, he more than likely can't find the time to find a new job (as it's shown he already has a tough time getting even a sick day) OR he's in a Sunk Cost Fallacy about working at the Krusty Krab. Hidden option 3 is both, as was my case, but given this is a kid's show, I'm trying not to put too much thought into it (despite this commemt).
3) There's the possibility that some of the writers are using Squidward as a sort of stand-in for how they feel with their job. Working for one of the biggest media companies, on one of the most recognizable shows... I can imagine that shit gets pretty damn stressful. I'm not saying this is the answer to why Squidward is suffering more and more for no real rhyme or reason like the older episodes, but I do think it'd explain a lot.
Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk.
That is very insightful!
Your comment needs and deserves more likes!
I had a dream the other night that I was at my work (UPS warehouse) barefoot. I wear steel-toe boots for that job.
So these episodes are a cry for help from the animators?
Haha. Hehehehe. So funny. Heheheh. Heh.
I’m happy you are no longer stuck in your toxic workplace. retail and customer service jobs need to be completely restructured to give workers some semblance of rights because we are literally left with serfdom with extra steps rn.
I quit a job within a month of having a dream where i was doing my work at home(as in, work was invading my non-work time), having customers invading my personal space, with one person being so absolutely infuriating that i pushed them out of the way and woke up in horror as they started to fall down the stairs.
This was after a coworker threatened me and i "mysteriously" had a slashed tire not long after, and one day when i got into my car and just screamed my frustration. As for that last thing, i'm sure the person in the car next to me was aware i was a worker there and probably decided *not* to go into the store. I screamed, stared ahead for a few mins, then just drove off. Yup. Good times. Good times.
Leaving that job was honestly the only thing i could have done at that point.
