Emails circulating around MEC on this very issue today. Maybe between company, union, and some grass roots work we can get this fixed.
I don't think any of the DEN pilots need to be told this, but everyone needs to make sure they stay "cool" and don't let one person's blowing off steam hurt the effort. Keep the high road....(and brother--I know sometimes its very tough...)
Please CC any correspondence to your block rep...we'll do all we can to help.
