"The Original Fry Cook" is an episode from Season 5.

Plot

Jim, the original fry cook visits the Krusty Krab, making Mr. Krabs pay more attention to him than SpongeBob, making SpongeBob depressed. Back then, the Krusty Krab had class and everything was great, even for Squidward (he had hair!). SpongeBob asks Jim if he would train him to be just as good as a fry cook as Jim. So Jim tries to train SpongeBob, but he does not do well. Jim then continues to get more attention because he missed.

So SpongeBob writes a resignation to Mr. Krabs because he thinks that Jim is taking the fry cook job back. But before he leaves, Jim sadly decides to tell SpongeBob the reason why he left the Krusty Krab. He left because Mr. Krabs refused to give him a raise; because when asked, Mr. Krabs just laughed as if it were a joke, which angered Jim. Jim then also says he's only there to visit, not take SpongeBob's job. He congratulates Mr. Krabs for finding a good fry cook. Jim wishes SpongeBob good luck, saying he'll be better when he quits the Krusty Krab--he calls it a dump--and then leaves. SpongeBob disagrees that his beloved place of employment is a "dump", but Mr. Krabs tells him it is indeed, "but she's my dump."
