Sure they learned to never joke around with that kid or be friends with and he was properly ostracized as a result.
Its the degree of escalation. Mind you I think some dinks sense when the person is going to be the ozsome type and and try to get an overreaction out of them (i.e. bullying) which could have been the case here.

there's a big difference with physically harming someone and damaging the obstacle in your way.
in ozsome's case, what would you think he should've done?
call for a taxi and be late?
take transit and be late?
beg and plead for the coworkers to move their car and be late?
There's nothing psychotic about it. The coworkers used their cars as an obstacle to prevent him from leaving and should've accepted that there could be some resulting damage from ozsome trying to get out.
