— Waiter, The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie
|
Walter[citation needed] the waiter,[1][2][3] also known as the ice cream man[4][5][6] and the Goofy Goober employee,[7] is a character who first appears in The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie book and later in the movie of the same name. He works as a bartender at Goofy Goober's Ice Cream Party Boat.
Description[]
The ice cream man as a kid.
He is a dark green fish who wears a pink-striped uniform, a white apron with a red bow-tie, brown pants, and black shoes. He also wears a peanut and a boater hat on his head. As a kid, he is shown to also have short black hair and a small sky blue dorsal fin. It is unknown if he still currently has hair for he has not been seen without his peanut helmet as an adult.
Personality[]
He seems to have a workplace attitude very similar to Squidward. He does not seem to enjoy his job and seems tired while working there. He also finds SpongeBob and Patrick annoying because of how inconsiderate and childish they act when eating the sundaes. Despite that, he does appear to enjoy working with children as shown in "Enemies à la Mode" and was shown to be quite friendly and thoughtful as a kid in the episode as well.

The ice cream man is currently a semi-recurring character in the series. He is an employee at Goofy Goober's Ice Cream Party Boat. He has remained absent in the series since his debut in the movie but makes a comeback in "Patnocchio."
