OEMC Cuts

  • Chicago firefighter-turned-alderman Nick Sposato (36th) and the union representing fire dispatchers maneuvered Monday to kill Mayor Rahm Emanuel’s plan to reduce the ranks of police and fire dispatchers at the city’s 911 emergency center.

    Fire and EMS dispatcher Jeff Johnson , union steward for IBEW Local 9, said the mayor’s plan to eliminate the jobs of 17 fire dispatchers, lay off nine others and shrink the supervisory ranks from 13 to 8 could send response times and employee burn-out rates through the roof.

    The jobs of 45 police dispatchers would also be eliminated. So would four of 22 radio repair technicians at a time when radio and data frequencies need to be reprogrammed to comply with a Federal Communications Commission mandate.

Almost word for word from our comment section, so evidently, the IBEW is trolling here. The Sun Times also points out the rather large amount of overtime generated by current shortages, so wouldn't it follow that making the dispatch center more shorthanded would only increase overtime? It might be cheaper than actually hiring dispatchers, but then the Sun Times really ought to stop ripping the overtime costs when they're tacitly supporting Rahm's cuts - especially when overtime is MANDATORY for dispatchers.

Wanna bet when any politician calls for help they will get it pronto. Anyone connected will not suffer no matter how much Racoon Eyes cuts services. Only the folks in the middle and bottom get the shaft. Again even if you don't like the looks of the folks protesting downtown listen to their message. Things have been too one sided for too long. It has to change.

'Onion Field' killer seeks compassionate release


By Abby Sewell
Los Angeles Times Staff Writer
9:51 AM CDT, October 18, 2011


The state parole board will consider Tuesday whether to release a man known as the "Onion Field" killer, who was convicted in the 1963 kidnapping and murder of a Los Angeles police officer.

Gregory Powell, 77, was convicted of killing on-duty LAPD Officer Ian Campbell and sentenced to death, but the sentence was later reduced to life without parole.

Campbell and his partner, Karl Hettinger, had pulled over Powell and accomplice Jimmy Lee Smith. Powell pulled a gun and disarmed Campbell, then forced Hettinger to give up his weapon.

Powell and Smith took the officers to a deserted onion field near Bakersfield, where Powell executed Campbell. Hettinger escaped.

Joseph Wambaugh wrote the book "The Onion Field" about the case. Smith died in prison in 2007.

Powell, who has prostate cancer, is asking for compassionate release from prison. The union of Los Angeles police officers has opposed his request. The board of the Los Angeles Police Protective League said in a statement posted on the union's website earlier this month, "It defeats the purpose of a life sentence if, at the end of life, cold-blooded murderers like Powell are let out so their last days can be spent in comfort.

Part of the deserved punishment for his brutal crime is that he spend his last waking moments deprived of freedom."

The union noted that Powell has been denied parole 11 times since 1972.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

While I agree with the sentiment, the mayor does not control any of that stuff, at least not overtly. Welfare is state and federal, link cards are state or maybe federal and the shitty stores allowing the bogus purchases are under state control, as you point out. And by the way, it's not just the gas stations and food marts taking the money. Next time you are in Jewel or WalMart or Target or wherever, take a minute to see the shit that they sell for food stamps and link money. And no one will attack that shit because it will be seen as racist.

Same with slashing aldermen. Be careful what you wish for on that one. You never know which wards they will keep, and which ones they would close. I wonder how everyone would feel for example if the 19th ward was given half to Carrie Austin and half to Howard Brookins. Go ahead and use this as an excuse to bash O'Shea, but think about it.

Lesson #12 in how to not let a crisis go to waste.

==============

Occupy Madiganville -- Where is MY double dip pension and interest free student loan?

Illinois Republican Party Chairman Pat Brady urged ‘Occupy Chicago’ protesters to march over to House Speaker Mike Madigan’s office to protest the many taxpayer-funded perks and privileges that he’s doled out to supporters, friends and family in his 40 years in state government.

“The 99% of Illinoisans that don’t get a double dip pension, a legislative scholarship, a county or city job, an interest-free loan from the government, or special treatment on their property tax appeals should be outraged,” said Brady.

Brady made the statement following the latest revelation about Madigan from a Chicago Sun-Times/Better Government report that Kenneth E. Pannaralla – once a top precinct captain for Madigan – got a pension from the City of Chicago in addition to the three paychecks from his three current government jobs, including one as the executive director of the Southwest Home Equity Assurance Program, a government agency created under a law Madigan co-sponsored.

Madigan, who is also chairman of the Illinois Democratic Party, also gave Pannaralla’s daughter, Jennifer Pannaralla, a one-year legislative scholarship in 2003 to the University of Illinois at Chicago. And Pannaralla’s son, Kenneth, is paid $24,000 a year as an aide to Madigan. Pannaralla also received $25,000 in interest free loans from the government agency he oversees.

“‘Occupy Chicago’ should ‘Occupy Madiganville,’” said Brady. “What’s a couple of bad years in the market compared to 40 years of getting it stuck to you by the Madigan Machine!”

so the ford workers ratify their contract even though their employees in Illinois voted against it by a 77% nay vote.

You know the Illinois ford workers cannot be happy with that.

A four year contract with NO RAISES for many as the Illinois taxes, fees, fines and cost of living continue to rise.

I'd say that we can expect to see and increased presence with UAW members in front of the board of trade with the OWS protestors soon.

I am sorry to say that I don't think there is much we can do to stop this. we have been painted as evil and greedy in a well orchestrated smear campaign.

If this comes to pass, we as a group, as a police force, as a fire department, as providers of city services......we had better reevaluate our roles and our job expectations. I for one will do exactly NOTHING for this city ever again. If I come across someone who needs help or is imminent danger, of course I will take action, but my days of doing anything proactive are definitely over.. I'm sorry but this is what I've become. I've been lied to and kicked to the curb. I hope thousands and thousands of you are thinking like me. The politicians and businesses have decided we are expendable.

THANK-YOU NICK!

CFD Lt. Nick Sposato won in a runoff against appointed, never elected John Rice in the 36th Ward.

Rice told a community group that, "We can't hire more police, we just gave the a 10% raise!"

He didn't realize how many cop families are in that ward.

Nick Sposato is standing up against Rahm and deserves our support. And for those of you who thing that the number of Aldermen should be cut in half, who do you think Rahm is going to get rid of first.

If McCarthy takes his Smoke and Mirrors to the 36th ward (25th district) maybe we can give him a welcome he will never forget.

New Helmets? We Already have Helmets 10/18/11

The Department has apparently discovered that there is a problem with the helmets that were issued to all Deparmtment members. The helmet shield cannot be lowered while wearing a gas mask. How does the Department intend on fixing the problem?

Those officers in voluntary units (tactical teams, etc) may be required to purchase a new helmet or be reassigned. The cost of the new helmet is upwards of $200.00.

The Lodge's position is that these new helmets would be the subject of a first issue item. Any member who is told that he is required to purchase a new helmet as a condition of remaining in his current assignment should contact the Lodge immediately.

Why anyone would stay on a tact team or special unit is beyond me. The G8 is approaching and WE have the power. Leave tact and go back to patrol. In tact they can mess with you. If there is no-one on tact, the Department if screwed.

I've been at oemc for a while and the place is mismanaged. Too many clout heavy people work there, do not produce, and are never disciplined.

The 4th floor has too many administrative positions, there are too many floor supervisors, and why the hell does there have to be 2 watch managers per watch?

But the answer is always: cut the people from the bottom who make the least amount of money and do the most amount of work.

Reporters and investigators:

Overtime is used to cover the medical abusers and people who do nothing.

The medical roll is documented, there are a dozen people on a leave of absence, and people who use a sick day every chance they get. There are people that have been there 10 years and do not have 1 day of medical time. File a FOIA.

Supervisors are supposed to track every one's performance and stats. They keep records and perform 6 month reviews. Ratings are 1 through 4 (poor to excellent) in several categories including attendance, number of calls taken, time spent in busy. File a FOIA and see who the assholes are, and connect the dots. Could mush mouth be a dispatcher on his own merits? Cortez Trotter and his reverend political bullshit got him hired.

Speaking of the stats, log in time in CAD, number of calls taken and time spent in busy is tracked daily. Why are the dogs who take 80 to 100 calls a night allowed to work? Why don't supervisors ever talk to the call takers who sit in busy? Why don't the supervisors talk to the dispatchers who are never at their station?

The answer is poor management. Political connections, favoritism, and indifference jack up the overtime. Look at the stats, look at the GIGANTIC difference between the people who perform and those who don't.

Fire the dogs, keep the people who work. There would be no overtime and efficiency would be at 100%

All cpd & cfd dispatchers & calltakers are city employees and their payroll is in the city budget. None of the Homeland Security or 911 tax revenue is used for city employee pay. FYI...the 911 tax revenue did pay for the plants & furniture in the atrium outside of the operations floor! Go figure!

Homey is not there so they tie up and put two shots in both momma and her son's head. Real daddy of boy is a latin king in the joint right now. Officers got all 3 offenders, the car and the stashed guns. The District has been so stripped of manpower, 2 other districts had to handle their calls, as there were multiple crime scenes, arrest locations etc.
Excellent witnesses, a streets and san and a com ed worker were instrumental. Great work by all involved. Now give that District a few more officers McCarthy before a P.O. gets killed! The beast has arrived in 017 and it is wide open for the picken!

********************

drug money, guns, 2 dead, multiple crime scenes, yet the spin doctors/number crunchers will compile all this, document and file it as a home invasion, so they can continue to happily report crime is down.

I once took a report for a woman who told me that she was on disability. What was her disability? Carpal Tunnels Syndrome!

These Union guys YOU love are marching with Nazis and the Communist party, THEY are the ones who are fighting with the police in New York.... They will fight with you too new guy. The CTA driver who sued the od Sgt. is a Union member, the Unions HATE the police, wake up new guy. This shit going on is only gonna get worse, (more violent) and what are you gonna say when god forbid a PO gets hurt or seriously hurt during one of these UNION sponsored protests? You actually sound like a liberal, pro OWS supporter. I sure wouldnt count on YOU for backup..... Also I have been a member of numerous Unions and I can say that they are their own worst enemies, they HATE THE POLICE......get some experience new guy....

afety of the Citizens & Well Being of Employees be Damned ! Right Tiny Dancer ??

maggie & dick, as well as yourself & other faux Royalty have immediate access to emergency services via their over paid police officers acting as Valets & butt wipers.

Why should you care rahm ? You only took the job to further your future political ambitions !!!! Right ??

Plant some more flowers why don't you, you asshole !!!!

The part you forgot is the planters, the plant watering and the plant replacement program all enrich Christy Webber Landscape, which has ties to Dick Mell's daughter Illinois Representative, Deb Mell.
How much does Christy Webber, or her company, contribute to Mell and Rahm, anyway? Can no one else plant flowers in this city?

can somebody please tell me why does the alderman of the 23rd ward drive around in a cadillac suv with the illinois plate 053 only have a passenger chicago city sticker displayed on his vehicle? i would think that he would surely know that any vehicle that weighs over 4,000 pounds is required to purchase the LP city sticker

***************************
Because that law only applies to the working folks in the City. Politicians, etc, "entitled ones" are not required to obey the law ! Are you new to the City of Shitcago ???

Hey 10 of those 12 are about the same incident. It should only count as one misstep. I agree that he shouild of handled it differently, but I have seen plenty of times where cops, their wife or kid has had things happened that we just look the other way. It happens ALL THE TIME in some areas.

While I agree with the sentiment, the mayor does not control any of that stuff, at least not overtly. Welfare is state and federal, link cards are state or maybe federal and the shitty stores allowing the bogus purchases are under state control, as you point out. And by the way, it's not just the gas stations and food marts taking the money. Next time you are in Jewel or WalMart or Target or wherever, take a minute to see the shit that they sell for food stamps and link money. And no one will attack that shit because it will be seen as racist.

Same with slashing aldermen. Be careful what you wish for on that one. You never know which wards they will keep, and which ones they would close. I wonder how everyone would feel for example if the 19th ward was given half to Carrie Austin and half to Howard Brookins. Go ahead and use this as an excuse to bash O'Shea, but think about it.

===================================
Go ahead & put my house in one of their wards. Ginger & O'shea only take care of the choosen few. Plus if the 19th was gone we would have so many stupid useless bosses on this job because they would have never been promoted without Ginger's help. There are probably more "Merit" promoted people in the 19th ward then anywhere else.

just look at all the take home cars out here. And dumba$$ bosses or do nothings sriving them.

That doesn't mean it SHOULD happen 'all the time'.

I for one feel as thou we can get by with less call takers down at the OEMC. We should just go to an automated system to save money for this GREAT & PROUD city.
