Resumo: Considering the settings in the world of work in modern capitalist society, including its centrality in the life of the individual as the basis of identity formation of human beings, it was adopted a qualitative approach to develop an observational study of a fictitious social environment of children's cartoon Sponge Bob Square Pants - revealing how it may represent an "ideal model/standard of a good worker" that is presented to the child and young audience. The four episodes discussed here are used as a background for a reflection on the organizational relationships and the dualities/contrasts (pleasure and pain) of perceptions and subjectivities present in this context. It is observed in the episodes analyzed a dichotomy between "good and bad worker". The episodes portray the antagonism in relation to the work of the main character SpongeBob (that establishes a positive and pleasurable subjective relationship with his work activity, but also alienated) and its antagonist Squidward (which represents the suffering and hardship sphere of work). The four selected episodes have essential components for understanding the importance that work represents in the lives of individuals and how is this dynamic in the current contemporary capitalist model guided bymanagerialism, which values the high performance and transforms the individual into capital that must be productive at any cost.

Los cuatro episodios aquí analizados sirven como un fondo de pantalla para una reflexión sobre las relaciones organizacionales y las dualidades/contrastes (placer y sufrimiento) de percepciones y subjetividades presentes en este contexto. Se observa en los episodios una dicotomía entre el “bueno y el malo trabajador”. Los episodios retratan el antagonismo en la relación con el trabajo del personaje protagonista Bob Esponja (que establece una relación subjetiva positiva y placentera con su actividad de trabajo, pero también alienada)  y su antagonista Calamardo Tentáculos (que representa la esfera del sufrimiento y lástima en el trabajo). Los cuatro episodios seleccionados representan elementos esenciales para la comprensión de la importancia que el trabajo representa en la vida de individuos y como se da esta dinámica en el actual modelo capitalista contemporáneo pautado por gerencialismo, que valora el alto desempeño y lo transforma en capital que debe ser productivo a todo costo.Considerando-se as configurações do mundo do trabalho na sociedade capitalista moderna, incluindo sua centralidade na vida do indivíduo como base da formação identitária dos seres humanos, adotou-se uma abordagem qualitativa para desenvolver um estudo observacional de um ambiente social fictício na animação infantil Bob Esponja Calça Quadrada, desvelando como ela pode representar um “modelo ideal/padrão do bom trabalhador” apresentado para o público infanto-juvenil. Os quatro episódios aqui analisados servem de pano de fundo para uma reflexão sobre os relacionamentos organizacionais e as dualidades/contrastes (prazer e sofrimento) de percepções e subjetividades presentes nesse contexto. Observa-se, nos episódios analisados, uma dicotomia entre o “bom e o mau trabalhador”. Os episódios retratam o antagonismo na relação com o trabalho do personagem protagonista Bob Esponja (que estabelece uma relação subjetiva positiva e prazerosa com sua atividade de trabalho, mas também alienada) e seu antagonista, Lula Molusco (que representa a esfera do sofrimento e da penosidade no trabalho). Os quatro episódios selecionados apresentam elementos essenciais para a compreensão da importância que o trabalho representa na vida dos indivíduos e como se dá esta dinâmica no atual modelo capitalista contemporâneo, pautado no gerencialismo, que valoriza o alto desempenho e transforma o indivíduo em capital que deve ser produtivo a qualquer custo.Editora Mackenzie2014-07-28info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAvaliado por ParesEstudo observacional.application/pdfhttps://editorarevistas.mackenzie.br/index.php/RAM/article/view/4570Revista de Administração Mackenzie; Vol. 15 No. 5 (2014)Revista de Administração Mackenzie; Vol. 15 Núm. 5 (2014)Revista de Administração Mackenzie (Mackenzie Management Review); v. 15 n. 5 (2014)1678-69711518-6776reponame:RAM.
