OPINION

SCHUMACHER, Judge.

In this age discrimination case, appellant Donald E. Diez challenges the district court’s grant of summary judgment in favor of Minnesota Mining & Manufacturing (3M), arguing there are genuine issues of material fact. We affirm.

FACTS

Diez worked for 3M from 1962 until August 1, 1992, when he retired at age 58 from 3M’s Tape Group as part of a voluntary severance plan. Diez’s salary grade had been reduced in 1990, but because he believed that he continued to do the same work, he requested in 1992 that his job be reevaluated so he could regain his former salary grade.
