Chapter 2 – Job Hunt: Day 1

Spongebob woke up in his bed in his house by the foghorn alarm clock. Last night, Mr. Krabs carried Spongebob back to his house after firing him. Then he left the house, thinking that he wouldn't need Spongebob anymore, and ran to his house weeping. Okay, back to the present!

"Oh Gary, I lost my job. Now how are we going to live?" Spongebob asked his pet snail, Gary.

"Meow," replied Gary as he got out luggage.

"No way! You are definitely not moving away! I know! I'll find another job! Surely I can work in any other place besides the Krusty Krab, right?" asked Spongebob.

"Meow!" replied Gary, meaning "No!"

"What do you mean? I'm capable!" said Spongebob as he went outside, and saw a billboard that came to his immediate rescue, for he had no idea where to work.

"ARE YOU LOOKIN' FOR A JOB?

WORRY NO MORE! COME TO SAM'S JOB FINDING AGENCY TO FIND A JOB(S) TO SAVE YOUR SKIN!"

"Wow! I can go to Sam's!" exclaimed Spongebob as he ran the opposite way from the Krusty Krab while chanting "I'm ready!"

Meanwhile, Squidward got on his bike and looked at Spongebob.

"Maybe he did hate working at the Krusty Krab after all," muttered Squidward as he pedaled to the Krusty Krab.

At Sam's Finding Agency, Spongebob took an aptitude test. After he was done, Sam showed him his results in his little office lit by only a bare light bulb.

"Well, your results were not as great to be a lawyer or a doctor" began Sam, a fish in a coat too large for him and a hat that covered his face, "But I found a job for you. That's right, it's a good one."

"Tell me! Tell me! So I can get out of my unemployed misery!" pleaded Spongebob.

"You're going to work at the Krusty Krab as the fry cook!" announced Sam.

"But Sam, I'm already fired from the Krusty Krab!" said Spongebob.

"Well that's a real shame. Then, your best bet is to work in a place where you can cook, so get to it!" said Sam as Spongebob left the office.

"So where should I work?" Spongebob asked himself as he walked down the road.

Then he saw a restaurant, the Patty Prince! (Try to guess what restaurant the Patty Prince parodies). He also saw a Help Wanted sign on the window, so he dashed into the Patty Prince by jumping through the window, rapidly shouting "I'm Ready!" over and over again until the manager, a large grumpy looking fish, came over to Spongebob.

"So, you want a job?" asked the manager.

(You may skip the next capitalized paragraph)

"YES!YES!YES!YESYESYESYES

YESYESYESYESYESYESYESYES

YESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYES

YESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYES

YESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYES

YESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYES

YESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYES (x100) YESYES!" replied Spongebob.

"Well guess what? Read the rules over there!" said the manager as he pointed to a wall.

"RULES:

1. No shirt

2. No shoes

3. No annoying people"

"So get out!" shouted the manager as he booted Spongebob out of the Patty Prince.

"That's a real shame, since the Patty Whooper is also the other burger I can make. Where else can I go?" wondered Spongebob.

Then he saw another restaurant that came to his fortune, the Patty Bell (should be obvious what this parodies, right?). So Spongebob was about to dash through the window, when he noticed two things that prevented his employment in the Patty Bell.

1. There was no Help Wanted sign, as there were like, at least 10 employees.

2. They serve Patty Tacos, and Spongebob was allergic to Mexican food, for it would give him an allergy condition only sea sponges can have and it's indescribable.

"Oh man! Neptune, where else can I go?" asked Spongebob, when he noticed he was hungry, and bored.

"I'm hungry. And I'm bored. That's it! I can work in the Beach Shack!" exclaimed Spongebob as he dashed to Goo Lagoon.

At the Beach Shack, Spongebob easily got the job, but the manager was really angry today. It turned out that the customers really wanted Krabby Patties. But things went wrong when Patrick and Sandy visited.

"Hey Spongebob, wanna play?" asked Patrick.

"It'll be fun! It's 'Fun Day!'" said Sandy.

"Okay!" replied Spongebob as he left the restaurant.

"SQUAREPANTS, YOU'RE FIRED!" shouted the angry manager.

"Oh man!" exclaimed Spongebob.

Then we go to a montage of Spongebob failing employment throughout different restaurants that parody real life restaurants. First, he went to Cindy's, where his attempts in making Cindy Burgers blew up the restaurant. Then he went to Fast Food Hut, where making some buffalo wings set the restaurant on fire (Spongebob would have used water, but he was not taking his chances on buckets, like he did in the Krusty Krab and Cindy's). When he worked in Domino Burgers, he went on delivery and gave it to Domino Burgers' arch enemy, revealing the Domino Burger secret ingredient (it went out public, and nobody ever ate there again). Then he went to Sweet Coral, where he tried to make a Krabby Patty and everyone but Spongebob in the building were hospitalized for a week. Then he went to the Chum Bucket out of desperateness.

"Plankton, can I be a fry cook?" asked Spongebob as he knocked on the door to the Chum Bucket.

Then Plankton opened the door.

"Why yes, you can work here! In fact, you can start making Krabby Patties right now and you can serve customers!" said Plankton as he entered the Chum Bucket.

Spongebob was about to enter when he realized, "Wait! What am I doing, asking for a job at the Chum Bucket? Plankton could easily have the Krabby Patty Secret Ingredient!" exclaimed Spongebob as he dashed away.

"Oh barnacles. I see he has grown smarter," muttered Plankton.

That night, Spongebob went back to his pineapple house and back to bed.

"Oh Gary, I had a very bad day in job hunting today. I blew up Cindy's, set Fast Food Hut on fire, revealed Domino Burgers' secret ingredient to another restaurant... What? What do you mean that was already mentioned in a montage paragraphs earlier?" Spongebob asked Gary.

"Meow, meow," replied Gary.

"Man, do you have any ideas?" asked Spongebob.

"Meow, meow, meow?" asked Gary.

"That's it! I don't need to be a fry cook to be happy! Until next day!" said Spongebob as he went to sleep, thinking of what he was going to be, unaware of the disasters that will follow.

Will Spongebob find a new job, or will he destroy it, be fired, or kill the customers and employees? By the way, Sweet Coral is a restaurant for vegetarians. That's all I'll give you.
