OPINION
NORTON, Judge.
John Deerson sued Metal-Matic, Inc., his former employer, and Teamsters Local 970, alleging discriminatory treatment based on his having multiple sclerosis. Following a hearing before a panel of the Minneapolis Commission on Civil Rights, Deerson’s complaint was dismissed for failure to establish a prima facie case of discrimination. Deerson appealed. We affirm.
FACTS
Appellant John Deerson was hired by respondent Metal-Matic in January 1980. He worked in the tool room at the Metal-Matic plant as a surface grinder, grinding new tooling parts and sharpening dye-blocks.
