Of Mice and Men

Slim is extremely powerful, but he doesn't exhibit this trait in his actions. Thus, he'd best be described as respectful. In his interactions with the other men, Slim is helpful, a good listener, and full of good advice. He is compassionate with Candy, firm with Curley, and a welcoming, good listener with George. He inspires George's confidence and is the first to understand George's devastation at Lennie's death. Slim is a friend, who respects those around him. In turn, he has the complete respect of the other characters.
