Why Doesn't He Stand Out?[]
- He failed the admirable standards of SpongeBob, Patrick and Sandy who did more good deeds than him with less resources.
- He's an anti-hero and a hero by proxy, because some of the good deed's he's done are mostly so he can get some benefit out of it.
- He is so greedy, it is his defining trait.

- His cheapness has ruined many Pearl birthdays.
- In "Hooky," he initially warns SpongeBob and Patrick Star about the danger of hooks to make sure they don't get killed by fishermen and sold on the surface, but once SpongeBob forgets about the lesson due to Patrick's peer pressure the following day, Krabs and Squidward set up a fake hook up for him to see if he has learned. This results in a scared SpongeBob ripping his pants off in front of Krabs, his daughter Pearl and her friends, only to then get his underpants ripped off and be launched naked against the Krusty Krab's doors, making him a laughing stock for all those present at the restaurant.
- Though SpongeBob did deserve a lesson, Krabs and Squidward had no right to publicly humiliate and traumatize him just for him to learn to take care of himself.
- He sold SpongeBob's soul for 0.62$ in "Born Again Krabs".
- In "SpongeBob You're Fired," he fires SpongeBob (his most loyal employee) for the sole purpose of saving a measly nickel that he discovered he could save if he cut SpongeBob's salary completely.
