Last weekend I decided to sit back, relax and watch SpongeBob Squarepants. While watching, I realized that these characters are realistic. They all represent a part of the grad life. These SpongeBob Squarepants characters will tell you secrets about post college life.
Sandy Cheeks: The High Achieving Scientist
This squirrel is living the life. She has a steady job doing research and has a very nice tree dome. In her spare time, she likes to exercise and casually beat SpongeBob at karate. The only downside is that she had to move for her job and she misses her friends and family from Texas. If I were you, I would hope to end up like her.
Mr. Krabs: The Entrepreneur
That Mr. Krabs is also living the life. He started a successful restaurant and is often seen rolling in piles of dough. The only downside is this taste of success has made him extremely greedy. If you become a successful business owner like Mr. Krabs, make sure to stay grounded.
Mrs. Puff: A Teacher
Mrs. Puff has a steady job as a driving teacher. Unfortunately, she has to deal with difficult students like SpongeBob. Remember, being a teacher is a rewarding job even when students are trying your patience.
Plankton: Failing Business Owner
Some businesses are unfortunately not as successful as the Krusty Krab. Do not give up if you have a business that is failing. Also, do not try to screw over other businesses in the process.
Squidward: The Struggling Artist
Squidward has a dream, to become a famous clarinet player. Unfortunately, he is having troubles putting his aspirations into action. While his dreams are on hold, he is forced to take a cashier position at the Krusty Krab. If you have a dream, go for it. Even if you have to take some unpleasant jobs along the way, your dreams are worth it. Just make sure you are a better artist than Squidward and you will be fine.
SpongeBob: Odd Jobs
SpongeBob has such a positive attitude even though his life is falling apart. He doesn't have a driver's license and he has been stuck as a fry cook for who knows long. The worst part, he doesn't even get a raise or a promotion from Mr. Krabs. Even though SpongeBob is content with his life, make sure you don't get into a rut like him. With whatever job you get after you graduate, try to always keep moving up. Also, if you do not have a driver's license, it is not too late to get one.
Patrick Star: Rock Bottom
This is the worst possible situation. Patrick does not have a job and he lives under a rock. A rock. You could say he has hit rock bottom.
