There are already far too many answers to the question--more wouldn't really help anything. Any new answers--even really good ones--would just get lost in the noise.
Apart from posting answers, there really isn't much else restricted by the question's being closed. I really think it is not a big deal.
And a few deleted ones. "Sounds like your friend is a bit of a dick. Noone wants to work for him." is one of them (yeap, just that), the whole thread was turning to crap. Closing is only meant to prevent further answers, and this one was deteriorating fast.
