Spongebob Squarepants

Squidward Tentacles, a prominent character in the animated television series SpongeBob SquarePants, resides in the underwater city of Bikini Bottom. He is an anthropomorphic octopus, easily recognizable by his large nose, bulbous head, and primarily blue-green coloration.

Squidward works as a cashier at the Krusty Krab, a fast-food restaurant owned by Eugene Krabs. He harbors a deep dislike for his job and his enthusiastic, albeit annoying, co-worker, SpongeBob SquarePants. He also greatly dislikes SpongeBob's best friend, Patrick Star.

Living next door to both SpongeBob and Patrick, Squidward's life is frequently disrupted by their boisterous antics. He aspires to be a renowned artist, focusing primarily on clarinet playing and painting, though his talents are often questioned by others, and he's highly critical of himself.

Despite his generally grumpy and misanthropic demeanor, Squidward occasionally displays moments of kindness and genuine connection, usually hidden beneath a veneer of cynicism. He wears a pink lei at the end of the episodes as part of the credits.
