Kurt Kromm, a former Ford electrician, is suing after being fired for allegedly stealing cookies. He proved his payment with bank records, which led to an offer of back wages. Ford and Aramark are reviewing issues with their self-checkout kiosks. Kromm expressed disappointment with his union's lack of support during the incident. He seeks to clear his name and pursue legal claims against the companies.
