Kurt Kromm, a Ford electrician, was wrongly accused of stealing a $1.95 pack of cookies due to a glitch in a self-checkout kiosk at Ford’s Kentucky Truck Plant. Despite showing proof of payment and being reinstated with back pay, Kromm rejected the job offer and is now pursuing legal action against Ford and its cafeteria operator Aramark.

Ford is reviewing the issue but declined detailed comment due to pending litigation.
