Allow me...(it's confusing at first)
1.his so called friends only came over at first to gawk at him which is why finally Job vented for awhile by himself.
2.3 out of 4(yes one friend didn't have to give to Job because he spoke well of God)did not "Speak truth of God thereby not Glorifying him".
3.the friends in the wrong spoke ill of Job

Well back then losing all your crops and your entire family dying and especially having sores all over your body or really being plague with massive illness was a sign of sin and I think his friends having this mentality thought it was the logical reason for his suffering, however they were not aware of the situation that actually happening and so falsely spoke. tbh I myself am confused about this, I mean yes Job's integrity as a righteous upright person is a clear sign of his being right when he said he didn't sin but at the same time I don't know how god expected his friends to know what was happening due to the mentality of how all that happened to job is a sign of sin.
Agree, Job never sinned, never was he rude. In fact:
Even if Noah, Daniel, and Job were there, their righteousness would save no one but themselves, says the Sovereign Lord .
Ezekiel 14:14 NLT

Well joefizz, they did not know that Job did not sin. Like Blain said they were just observing, and stated that maybe Job had a secret sin. They thought that God wouldn't let those things happen unless sin were present. What we know now: is God can do anything He wants. That is why the story is preserved to glorify God. I just people wouldn't draw major doctrine from seldom used phrases like "Sons of God."

For whoever gave me the Rep,no this isn't all I do though I practically live here,I have a job double shift twice a week,I try to stay up with my mentally disturbed uncle and read him God's word,I do chores,buy food,play video games,watch tv,go on Christian chat the app for more bible discussion and fellowship,and if I feel like I have around six or more other Christian Chat style sites that I discuss on and try to lead souls to God/Jesus.
Also I go to church,I write church songs for God through the holy spirit,I have a memory teachings composition that I strive to finish though it's tough with my family typically driving me up the wall,brush my teeth,eat,shower,and try to get sleep at night though I sleep better in the day time.(all of this is in no particular order)

Also now my sabbath Sunday is over with so I'm at liberty to play pokemon or a video game or some such,(I observe my Sabbath of Sunday by not playing any video games except animal crossing(a game about life and responsibility),nor watching any shows that are even remotely questionable spiritually except for the living room tv shows that my family watches that can't be changed necessarily all of it being my personal tribute to God/Jesus.and though I might just go to sleep instead.
