Squidward Tentacles is SpongeBob and Patrick's cranky neighbor. His species is ambigous, and has been called both a squid and octopus by the series creators. Squidward is bald with light green skin, a big nose, plays the clarinet, and lives in an Easter Island head located between SpongeBob's and Patrick's residences. He works as a cashier at The Krusty Krab, a job he despises. SpongeBob and Patrick consider Squidward their friend, but the feeling is not mutual. Squidward's main rival is Squilliam Fancyson, his former band classmate and the richest squid in Bikini Bottom.

The series animators illustrated Squidward with six tentacles, believing that giving him the proper number for an octopus (eight) would make him look too burdened.

Personality

Squidward Q. mitchell is a light green/blue color, and has purple suction cups at the end of his tentacles. He has six limbs in total, two being arms and four being legs. Whenever he walks, his suction cups stick to the floor, meaning that he walks with a distinct squelching noise. Squidward has a large baldhead, big droopy nose and yellow eyes with red pupils. He wears a brown short-sleeved shirt, which is sometimes nautical brown-orange.

Squidward is usually portrayed to be a whiny, stick-in-the-mud character, a complete opposite to SpongeBob SquarePants. He is very egotistical and cannot stand saying sorry to anyone or admitting his mistakes. He considers himself very sophisticated and upper class, and looks down on most other people. Squidward is impatient for most of the time, egotistical and finds everything dull and trivial. However, in some episodes, It shows that Squidward have a rather more wild side. An example of this is in 'Squidville', Squidward goes to live in a town with other people who are exactly like him. However, Squidward realizes that he cannot cope with this lifestyle and is shown at the end of the episode to fly away on a reef-blower whilst laughing manically. Also, in 'Squid's Day Off' Squidward is shown as very unstable and slightly mad in nature. Although Squidward has a generally dull and uncaring personality, he cannot keep it up constantly and turns hysterical every occasionally, much to SpongeBob's confusion. People usually make jokes about the size of his nose.

Squidward works as the cashier in the Krusty Krab, but he hates his job, largely because he has to work with SpongeBob. He shows no enthusiasm, although he often shares a private joke with his boss, Eugene H. Krabs, about SpongeBob. Squidward is only in his job for the paycheck, however small this may be. He dreams of being a world-famous clarinet player, but has done nothing to achieve this. Although he hates the Krusty Krab now, he used to think the Krusty Krab had class when Jim, the original fry cook was there. He and Jim had many 'Bull talks' about leaving and starting a new restaurant.
