SILER, Judge,
concurring.
The dissent sets out a very reasonable result to this case. However, I concur with the majority because I feel that the decision in EEOC v. Avery Dennison Corp., 104 F.3d 858, 861 (6th Cir.1997), precludes this court from considering the result proposed by the dissent. I do not mean to say that a plaintiff in a Title VTI case does not have the burden of showing that he suffered adverse discrimination. He does, but the peculiar facts of this case come under the umbrella of the Avery Dennison case. It is an anomaly that this is allowed, but that is my interpretation of the decision in Avery Dennison.
