       The Honorable Brian S. Miller, Chief Judge, United States District Court for
the Eastern District of Arkansas.
review, we conclude that the district court’s decision was correct. See Torgerson v.
City of Rochester, 643 F.3d 1031, 1042 (8th Cir. 2011) (en banc) (standard of
review); see also Edmund v. MidAmerican Energy Co., 299 F.3d 679, 686 (8th Cir.
2002) (federal courts do not sit as super personnel department reviewing wisdom or
fairness of business judgments made by employers, except to extent those judgments
involve intentional discrimination).

      Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
