With no explanation, chose the best option from "A", "B", "C" or "D". See Rowan v. Lockheed Martin Energy Sys., Inc., 360 F.3d 544, 550 (6th Cir.2004). With regard to Chittaro and Caporella, there is no evidence that the inquiries were anything other than just that—inquiries. There is no indication that the questions suggested Plaintiff ought to retire, or that they were meant to pressure Plaintiff into retiring. Moreover, none of the inquiries incorporated any actual reference to Plaintiffs age. Mere inquiries, without more, are insufficient to establish an inference of discrimination. Woythal v. Tex-Tenn Corp., 112 F.3d 243, 246-247 (6th Cir.1997) (distinguishing between friendly or mere inquiries versus questions that amounted to pressure or suggestions to retire); Sander v. Gray Television Grp., Inc., 478 Fed.Appx. 256, 265 (6th Cir.2012) (<HOLDING>); Anderson v. U.S. Bank Nat’l Ass’n, No.
