A Ford employee says he lost his job after being accused of stealing a $1.95 cookie, only for the company to later realize he’d actually paid for it.
60-year-old Kurt Kromm had worked at Ford’s Kentucky Truck Plant for 11 years, but told Shifting Gears he was fired after the company believed security footage showed him taking a cookie from the break room without paying.



Why isnt there free cookies in the breakroom?
Why are they nickle and diming employees for snacks that give them the energy to do their job well and full?
$1.95 is more than a nickel and a dime… that’s a profit center for several people in the supply chain.
Inflation about to hit our lexicon.
