501 Openings

We haven't seen this many openings up for bid in years:
  • District - # of Openings
  • 002 --- 3
    003 --- 71
    004 --- 75
    005 --- 73
    006 --- 68
    007 --- 74
    008 --- 43
    009 --- 5
    010 --- 2
    011 --- 37
    012 --- 1
    014 --- 3
    015 --- 28
    017 --- 2
    018 --- 5
    019 --- 1
    022 --- 1
    023 --- 1
    024 --- 3
    025 --- 5
Looks like Area 2 is getting the lions' share. We fully expect the "super bid" to cover only those districts where double-digit vacancies have been posted and then there will be minimal openings posted thereafter until the end of the year. Rahm and Garry don't want anyone moving once they get assigned.

All you guys bidding to 003 to work for Capt KJ and Capt GC - better think twice.
KJ is turning 60 very soon and is considering retiring.
GC is 55 and maxed out, possibility that he may go by the end of the year for the 55 and insurance.
Rumor is Capt TW from 008 wants to come to 003 to hang out with his friend the cmdr, and Lt PG - midnights in 005 has worn out her welcome and will go to 003 on 1st watch. Everyone waiting to see what the 2 popular capts will do!!!

There is no superbid. The superbid option was taken off the table by DTEB. DTEB got mad at the union for the "don't join any specialized units" remarks on the FOP website and decided to take it out on the P.O.'s from TRU and MSF. This is the only bid that is going to be posted. Let me say that again, this is the only bid that will be posted. All former TRU and MSF personnel have been advised that they should bid in this city-wide bid process. Any TRU-MSF that do not bid, or that are unsuccessful bidders will be "back filled" into the remaining openings after the transfer order is finalized. There is no superbid. None, nada, nyet. Get it? That is why all of the griping by the TRU-MSF people about the union not standing up for them. Wait it gets better, all the Sgt's and Lt's from TRU-MSF must petition an exempt to request them to a district or else they are just going to be placed into a district at the departments whim. No bid process what-so-ever. So if you don't have any whack, or you don't suck off a Commander, you are going to Area 2. This is not rumor, this is not conjecture, this is fact. PERIOD.

Wow! 501 openings! Where o where will they find 501 officers to fill those spots??

Don't watch that man behind the curtain!!

The Great Oz will perform a trick making 501 officers appear out of nowere and then Rahm will have fulfilled his promise of putting 1,000 officers on the streets!!


Remember, he said he would put 1,000 officers on the street. Not hire 1,000 more officers. You must pay attention to the magician's language when listening to his promises.

The Great Oz has spoken.

Get your FACTS straight....

The Union HAS to approve the SUPERBID, they DID NOT. The city had no choice but to withdraw that portion of the process.

Go to the Unions web page and they admit they did not approve the process.

I am no fan of DTEB, but it's the Union that screwed these guys over. DTEB wanted to open all "vacated" positions from the first bid in addition to all unfilled spots.

Go cry to Shields and Dougherty, they're the one"s who did a number on the membership.

as an fyi they opened the bids in part to gain management moves. they get 20% of the number of openings made for bid whether someone bids or not. occasionally the department opens massive bids just to gain the right to assign officers by managment. so my friends the dept just aquired 100 managment moves. Pretty sure its the same for sgts. Wonder if the dept had enough moves in the bank to make all the sgts moves they made on the last order? Stay safe out there!

Do NOT even CONSIDER bidding to 023 afternoons.

Capt. TJL is the W/C there. He is the one that sat at his desk, in HIS brand-new station, meticulously compiled a list of all of the PO's on HIS watch that were on the medical, listed each and every one's ailment, brought it to roll-call and READ IT OUT LOUD TO EVERY OFFICER at that roll-call, in CLEAR VIOLATION OF A FEDERAL LAW.

Unless, of course, you feel like being subjected to that kind of violation, where NOTHING will be done to discourage that sort of behavior, and if you like having a vindictive, power-hungry, self-indulgent and arrogant a-hole as a W/C. Then, by all means, COME ON DOWN!

When all of the po's lwho went to tru and msf left the districts, did they worry about leaving the district short? Or the effect their leaving would have on manpower in those districts? I think not. So why is everyone so worried about them now? They volunteered to go, they were warned (by FOP, by more experienced coppers and by common sense) not to do it because the department could shove it up their asses in the future (and the future is NOW), so now we are supposed to feel sorry that they get stuck in 005 or 007? No tears from me. In the same way that they weren't losing any sleep over beat coppers running from job to job, I'm not going to lose sleep over their problems now.

When I went in the Army, a vet told me to remember one thing-NEVER volunteer. That advice served me well then, and should be remembered by all involved.

their is already evidence that 023rd district 3rd watch captain TL who taken his years on the watch to break it apart and just plain dont understand the dealings we blue shirt beat cars work just fine without our intelligence insulted on a day after day after day way like we are not grown men and women who have decades of police experience (and some older) combined and years older than him and can do just fine without his half hour college level motivating speeches like the ones they offer that people buy tickets online at a holiday inn where people are looking for answers go.!! How about we do something like the old days, POLICE BE THE POLICE, keeping in mind civil rights and respecting people at all steps along the way but not backing down from a criminal who has no option that for us to treat him in a bit more fitting form than is what they only understand. The Yes sir and no sirs, you are just asking for problems and violence and being laughed at in uniform is the most pathetic thing that has become of us from the hatred of us for just doing our job which no one else seems to want to do. If I was a Dr. i would be pretty upset that some cop told me how to perform a surgery. Why does anyone who is not the law enforcement business have any input into a cop investigation or how to react to a certain "group" AT CAPS?
. The POLICE IS THE POLICE, AND PEOPLE NEED TO GET THIS IN THEIR MINDS AND UNTIL IT DOES WE WILL HAVE NO REAL INTIMIDATION OR SCARE TACTICS ANYMORE. WAKE up government and JUDGES and Prison Boards, it will get worse and worse until we stand up and get the order to be the REAL POLICE, as it is in HUNDREDS OF OTHER PLACES IN THE WORLD. Just see what is tolerated here and there if it would still be there. In many beautiful countries around the world bring your cameras there and see when someone beefs on a copper asking for a supervisor about Pookie robbing that store again. Or what happens when they tell us to go F-- OURSELVES and speed away driving towards us laughing, Just see what happens there with their police authority. Authority is respected or maybe a healthy fear of cops by 99% if people there. Here is is the opposite. Very SAD. Wait till 3rd watch commander returns from furlo and discovers 10-15 people put in PAR forms to leave much more busier and dangerous districts with no food options. I WONDER, JUST WONDER IF ANYONE , BOSSES, HIM, UNION PEOPLE , WILL WAKE UP AND SMELL THE COFFEE WHY a perfect district is losing to 15, 11, 24 and all the SOUTH Dists. People are really trying to leave for a reason!! Not hard concept! Very sad state of affairs. Wish all the luck for the successful bidders, will it be 3, or, 7, or high as 15. ? A couple weeks we will find out who got it, but the answer why they left is that just could not take this man just anymore. It will be a ghost town roll call on the 3rd watch on change day. Lots of tears and good people are going to be happier else where. can you blame them. i cant.

Capt TL doesnt care about his own "troops" let alone people leaving his watch. As far as he believes, its not his fault. Remember its "HIS" way or the highway.

Capt Hoot in 012..... nice guy, but we lost a better Capt last year so Hoot could come back from 010.
We miss you Capt GC.....
It was fun coming to work with Capt GC, now it's just a job with Capt Hoot.
