Best appeals the district court’s order granting the Appellant’s motion for summary judgment in his employment dis- crimination action. We have reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm substantially on the reasoning of the district court. See Best v. Pepsi-Cola Bottling Co., No. CA-98-697-5-H (E.D.N.C. Aug. 12, 1999). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process. AFFIRMED 2
