An Award for What?
Back in April, we posted about the new awards the Department was looking to create. One of them was a "Top Gun" award that had nothing to do with marksmanship and a "Traffic Stop of the Month" award. No criteria have been announced that we know of and we solicited anyone with artistic talent to submit alternate awards along the lines of those we proposed here and here in August of 2005.
We got one entry and we're still trying to figure out where to use it.
Today, we saw this (click to enlarge):An "Attendance Recognition" award. WTF? We can only imagine what the criteria are going to be for this one. Perfect attendance over the course of a year? Not using any time due? Only taking the bare minimum allotted vacation days and never extending furlough? Never missing a parade detail or court appearance? What if they carry you on the sheets?
What the hell is this, grade school? Who comes up with this crap?

I got a perfect attendance award in 3rd grade and its still hanging on my moms fridge.
Geezzzzzzz- I smell a class action lawsuit here. Cause a certain segment of my group/unit seem to take a few days off every period
Check the mental ward.. thats were the receipient of this award will be after receiving it. LOL LOL
More medals for the "paper tigers"
on the job.
Speaking of paper tigers how bout big joes guy in 025 years back: WAYNEBO.
That flight jacket he used to wear:
was he Special Forces or Marines or
French Foreign Legion? All those patches, I couldnt tell.
Ahhh, you touched a nerve. Well, ribbons are a joke anyway. There is no set rule for who gets rewarded for what. Otherwise, northside guys (where I work now) would have a few ribbons, and westside and southside guys (where I worked years ago) would have back problems from the sheer weight of their ribbons. All of us have been written off countless paper, screwed over by dets and tact, shunned by sgts that never write anything for anybody, so Ill take a ribbon for perfect attendance. At least for that there will be a hard and fast rule for getting one......been to a few ceremonies...hilarious....first up, po smith working 711 midnites got in a footchase, shot a guy, and recovered a pistol...congrats, heres a dc. Next we have Po smith working 1611 days. Wrote 100 parkers in one period on a caps spot in the doc. Congrats, heres a dc. Both guys did work for their dist, but come on! If you want ribbons, you should get more of them in a working dist, as there are more felony (non sholifting) arrests to be made. Therefore, there should be more "glory" ribbons on the south and west, simply due to statistics. Thats how it should be, but it isnt. Sure, if you get a pistol in 16, its probbably the only one that week. And the copper deserves credit. But so do the six other guys is 7 that got one that week too. 16 gets a ribbon and an early duck, and the guys in 007 get no time due. I know coppers south and west that have been working for more than a decade, great pinches...nothing. And I dont want to start a north vs south-west thing here. Ive worked em all, and there are really good cops everywhere. Just my observation that south and west cops get screwed. Waaaa. Ok, i feel better... Miller time.....
just more feminization of the police department. next look for a no TRR in 1 year ribbon.
WTF?
Yeah, this one is something else. This is right from downtown, 3 years without having used the medical roll. This does not include IOD time, which we know is different than being on the medical.
So those that have worked inside and have not been exposed to the elements (weather) and the savages that have more diseases than we know.
This new one looks like the Vietnam War service ribbon. Check this link for the picture, the caption is in fact wrong though as to the requirements for getting it.

Here are two other new ribbons
Traffic Stop of the Month

Top Gun Award
http://www.cfe-tagman.com/topgunaward.html
They have been talking about rewarding those that dont hit the medical or I.O.D. for a while now and I guess they decided on this. One of the other ideas that was going around was making the reward a couple extra P or bf-days. I think I would rather have the days.
I never used the medical. Sick, hung over. Partner pull over car so I can throw-up. It's a matter of pride. I have about 20years on now. I see people using medical like its nothing. A girl who works our desk has about 12 years on and about 800 + days of medical. Yes no typo 800+. She laughs about it. Who will be the chump in the end I ask her or me? I'm starting to think me. There should be a way to "that a-boy" those of us, good day, or bad day still show up to work. I applaud this type of an award SCC and so should you.
People like The Shirtless Man from the suburbs come up with this nonsensical horse shit...
Yes, most of you guys want to look like mexican generals with all your ribbons. But who cares? I see PPOs wearing the little american flag ribbon, you know that democratic convention one. Does anyone really check to see if you received that ribbon???
how bout:
The
Silliest Equipment Award- remember those black metal beat boxes we all had to keep in our trunks.
Juggling Personnel Award- this award will be issued to watch commanders who are forced to man every car, this as more healthy, able body officers are brought inside to do menial tasks.
Medical Absence Award- this award will be given to those who have managed to convince the medical section that they are truly sick, this as they are seen washing their cars, relaxing in their yards during a medical check or doing the limbo at weddings.
Silliest Assignment Award-this would be given to the unit who was given the silliest assignment such as, and these were actually assigned, "the complainant states there is a small plane circling above" or "the complainant states there is a duck and her babies on the corner in front of the currency exchange".
Spontaneous Decision Award
Spontaneous Decision Award
Officer will be issued two pins for making the best decision twice
How about instead of all this stupid waste of money, like the one who said 2 P. Days off, or how about a $$$$ incentive! I have some bars but never wear them who cares cannot put in the bank or for the kids college or for promotions right? How about a neat I Blew alderthug _________ and got this promotion and this neat pin! Or the yes boss i will do anything you say award?
WHEN I WAS IN GRAMMER SCHOOL, PERFECT ATTENDANCE GOT YOU FREE WHITE SOX TICKETS, I WONDER IF WE'LL GET THE SAME.....I'D LIKE TO SEE A "DOG ASS OF THE MONTH AWARD" "MOST RUDE DESK OFFICER OF THE MONTH AWARD" AND "THE DIRTIEST BLUE SHIRT OF THE MONTH AWARD".........ANY OTHER SUGGESTIONS???????????

What a JOKE!! IF YOUR SICK AND HUNG OVER DO WE WANT YOU PROTECTING OUR STREETS OR MORE IMPORTANTLY PROTECTING FELLOW COPPERS?? HEY IDIOT IF YOUR SICK THEN TAKE THE MEDICAL DAYS -THATS WHY WE HAVE THEM! JUST AS LONG AS YOUR NOT AN ABUSER IT'S FINE! HERE'S YOUR "THAT-A-BOY"......FOR BEING AN IDIOT!!
OFF TOPIC
QUEEN OF MARTYRS CHURCH ROCKS--THEY ERECTED A STATUE OF ST MICHAEL, WHO IS THE "PROTECTOR" FOR ALL TO SEE ON 103RD AND CENTRAL PARK---THEY DID IT FOR THE CONGREGATION CONSISTING MOSTLY OF COPS AND FIREMEN---
MALLOY WAS THERE HE TOLD THE CONGREGATION THAT WHEN THEY HEAR LIGHTS AND SIRENS THEY NOT ONLY SHOULD PULL TO THE RIGHT BUT ALSO THEY SHOULD SAY "ST MICHAEL PROTECT THEM!" BECAUSE THE OFFICERS/FIREMEN COULD BE RESPONDING TO A VERY DANGEROUS CALL---
THANK YOU QUEEN OF MARTYRS FOR THINKING OF US ALL
Gee, so when I have my heart attack or my appendix out, HHHMMM, already out, I will not get an award. So serious medical maladies are treated the same as some chick who takes off because of a heavy flow. Another BS award.
What's up with the "Midget" Tac car, in 023 Dist? These two have to be the shortest partnership in the city. I don't think they are over 6 ft, stacked on top of each other. Thanks for helping out that off duty fireman. I'm sure he his greatful that you notified his C/O of the incident at Wrigley even after Wrigley told you that they did not want to pursue criminal charges. Maybe you can help him find a new job.
"I never used the medical."
You're a bargain for the city.
"
Who will be the chump in the end I ask her or me? I'm starting to think me."
Ya Think??
"I applaud this type of an award SCC and so should you."
You have confirmed the fact you are a softball that needs this job to justify your sad pathetic existence.You have been institutionalized my friend, get some HELP
Maybe an old timer can help me out. Answer this, what is the point of the "narrative" section of the arrest report? I thought it was to establish probable cause for the arrest. Why do these desk Sgt. and W/C require a novel today? And what is with all this extra bullshit in the narrative, event #, Has ID, Gang affialtion, address of arrest, clear Data Warehouse, Hot Desk and Juvenile name check? Most of these "extras" already have a section on the arrest report.

Pride I think not. Your the officer that comes to work sick then spreads it to others, as they can take it home to their families. However a company man you are,along with being a goof.
YEARS AGO IN THE PULLMAN DISTRICT, I WAS A PPO. MY PARTNER AND I MADE OVER TEN ARRESTS FOR AGG. BATT. WITH A HANDGUN. WHAT DID WE GET OUT OF IT? ONE HONORABLE MENTION!
FAST FORWARD TO 1996, A FEMALE "HOTTIE" COP GIVES A FLASH MESSAGE AND GUESS WHAT? IT'S A DEPARTMENT COMMENDATION! OF COURSE, THIS "HOTTIE" IS NOW A SGT.! BUT I HAVE THE MOST IMPORTANT STATISTIC: 2000+ HOURS ON THE BOOKS FOR GREAT SUMMER FURLOUGHS. KEEP THE STINKING RIBBONS; THEY'RE A JOKE. THE PERFECT ATTENDANCE AWARD PROVES IT!
I have an award we made up years ago on a bnlank honorable mention award. How do I scan it into the site?
The much coveted "VALET AWARD"
The award will look like a lil golden coathanger. To be awarded to all the political hacks jolding coats for and driving the mayor, ald. burke, and all the other assorted self important fools who run this city.
You can keep your "Attendance Recognition" and I'll keep using the CU that I have earned.
"No Medical" would be somewhat decent since that actually show a small sence of pride along with a little luck.
"No IOD" wouldn't work very well...anyone can get hurt if they are actually out there working.
re: the silliest assignment award;
I witnessed the dispatch of the small plane circling in 024
19p squad out anti aircraft weapons are down
Hey Phil,
Instead of monkeying around with nonsense like this, will you please sign the new .45 order?
Thank you.
How about:
PPO VETERAN AWARD - too be awarded to the PPO who has decided he/she has the job figured out and will tell senior officers how the job should be handled.
RE-VICTIMIZER AWARD - too the officer who feels compelled to motherfuck a legit victim on scene.
PAPER HITCHHIKER - awarded to the PO that arrives on scene after the fact and asks if you need a transport or some other menial task just to get credit for the arrest
FIRE CHASERS - awarded to the PO who decides he/she wants to play firefighter and get into the building before the firemen and open all the doors in an attempt to rescue someone, all for a life saving award. (side note: please don't open all the doors and feed the fire with more oxygen, you only make the job harder for CFD)
HOUSE CAT AWARD - awarded to the PO who has demonstrated that he/she is utterly useless on the street and is afraid of their own shadow
Who cares about ribbons. Just make sure the check clears in the bank twice a month.
To 11:49; LMAO. WAYNEBO and big joe were both in the Glory (Hole) Brigade!
That was a pair that beat three of a kind!
Amen.
Who is the officer that recently killed himself??
Picture a uniformed officer wearing just three ribbons:
* the Democratic Convention (NOT 1968) ribbon
* the Crime Reduction ribbon
* the Perfect Attendance ribbon
Upon viewing this displayed shameful trio of nonsense, I'd have to bite my tongue so I wouldn't laugh in ridicule. Just about any fucking paper-shuffling, non-police pussy OTJ could wear this shameful combination.
I recall an old friend I met as a dick in Area 4 Homicide that may have qualified as the most decorated officer in CPD history. Later, back in the bag and up through retiring as a lieutenant, he invariably wore nothing on his right chest but his "HAMILTON" name plate.
I tell you the most revealing and legitimate award imaginable. For obvious reasons, the brass would never implement it. Any sworn member could qualify for it, regardless of where he spent various stages of his career:
The PART I FELONY ARREST award for at least fifty incidents within a twelve month period.
At a glance, one could logically conclude that for at least one year in that officer's career, he was the REAL PO-leese, be it earned in 011, 016, the Detective Division, wherever. A silver cluster would be awarded for each additional year (gold for 5 years) with such consistent actual street activity.
I guarantee you that you could count on one hand the number of exempts that had "paid their dues" even once in this respect.
Prove me wrong, Fort Kool-Aid pussies!
Where's the final order for the new guns? What's the hold up? Who's got their sticky finger into this one?
What's next, autograph books or graduation ribbons for your classmates to sign?
theres a group where people use scanners to go to jobs to video tape the police, looking for brutalityBE CAREFUL

OFF TOPIC - Did anyone see todays suntimes regarding DANA STARKS working out a deal to become the Director of OEMC. What a freaking joke and a scam. Starks is not only a moron, but has been worthless in any of the ranks that he so quickly attained by meriotirous BS and aldercreature interference. He is a racial token (not to mention racist himself) as a non-functioning 1st Deputy and now someone wants to hand him over the keys to all emergency operations in the city!?! It's time to get rid of residecny and head out of dodge...20 and out here we come!
The only for a this dept. to build on self esteem and esprit de corp is to issue a ribbon for everything a cop does. We've lost the individualistic pride and camaraderie of just doing the job and having our peers say, "he's a good cop." Now, the new guys have to look like Gen. Patton (re: Mauer)so everyone else knows "they're a good cop." It cheapens every award a working cop gets.
I'm totally getting like three of these attendance awards! I'm such a good cop!
"If you want ribbons, you should get more of them in a working dist, as there are more felony (non sholifting) arrests to be made. Therefore, there should be more "glory" ribbons on the south and west, simply due to statistics.'
What a crock of Bull, I work the Ghetto Reward me? Hey tuffguy why don't you move out of Mt. Greenwood and in to Englewood,seeing you are making such a difference there. When you lay your head down, just say thank you to 22nd District Officer keeping your sorry ass safe.
Will it be retroactive?
I had perfect attendance for the first seven years on-the-job.
Then hit the medical for a couple of days while in the hospital.
Until recently, that was it,three days on the medical and several weeks IOD for LEGITIMATE INJURIES!
(Now well into my second decade)
Where is mine? WHAAAAAAAAAAAA-WHAAAAAAAAAAAA!(As tears drench my keyboard)
I too have noticed "rookies" wearing the "DNC" ribbon cause they think it looks cool..however, I'm willing to let that pass.
I'd rather see them displaying our wonderful flag than burning it!
Signed:
An old Army veteran
Oh, perfect....more useless ribbons so our exempt staff won't be embarassed in D.C. when standing around the NYPD guys. Will SOMEBODY tell the 1st Deputy D.S. that the Democratic National Convention award (mini American flag) should be worn with the STARS to the left and the STRIPES to the right. It's embarassing when he's on TV (he always manages to be on camera) and the flag is backwards and the Crime Reduction award is on the top row.
Whatever....all a big joke anyway.
We should have a ribbon for writing a thousand parkers a period.
Hey SCC,do we still get carried anymore?i thought those days are over...but it still nice to know that some places(BOSSES)still do it....guess i wont be getting this award anytime soon..i can only imagine the person wearing it...
Sometimes "Dumb Ideas" get you on the front page of the Sun Times!
Taht what happans when you have 9,200 police officers on the job..The city states we have 13.500//lie lie lie...The crime rate is up said the FBI and the DOC is nor working...Crime does not stay in the DOC...Nice Job Cline....Its to late to get the real poice to start working when you have them on the programs...stress..CRs and noew you wunt us to work...go F---- yourself
I DO NOT WANT ANY AWARDS ANYWAY THERE ALL POLITICAL , PLUS I LIVE IN EDISON PARK NOT BRIDGEPORT JUST LEAVE ALONE AND LET ME DO MY JOB.
LT TONY RICCHIO FOR SUP AND SEISER FOR FIRST DEPUTY, THE 41 ST WARD STILL RUNS IT.
Forget the ribbon, the Department should consider monetary awards for members who have not used the medical, excluding IOD incidents, in a specified period of time. Perhaps the FOP should consider negotiating this with the city.
The only problem with this is that if the Department did offer monetary awards for such cases, they would probably see a great increase in IOD incidents by some members with extensive medical histories.
Officers who have honorably served in the CAPS program could receive the CAPS DIVERSITY award, a ribbon with four equal stripes of white, black, brown and yellow.
An alternative ribbon could depict the colors of a magnificently stunning rainbow.
The officers issuing the most parking tickets could be given a pastel colored ribbon in either pink, peach or lavender.
at least when you got perfect attendance in grade school, they gave you a couple of white sox tickets!! I'll take that before another BS ribbon (sorry guys in 007 who love wearing them!)
I used to call in and burn my C/U time if I was sick. Then I woke up after an old timer told me he never used the medical once and would even schedule surgeries on his furlough. If he had the flu he would come in to work miserable making the recovering time even longer and his partners miserable and sick also. He said who's the idiot me or the medical abuser who uses it to extend his weekend? He said "that’s right kid...me" I probably could have extended my life expectancy and retirement by decades if I hadn't abused my body so much on this job. The medical is there for a reason, if your sick use it. If your on it for any other reason you should be fired!
I also heard that with the ribbon we would get issued a free ticket to a Sox/Royals or Cubs/Nationals game just like we used to get in grade school that or a free sack of sliders at White Castle...
I think that people who wear those stupid ribbons on their uniforms everyday are losers. It's like they are trying to show everyone that they are these super cops and make all these great heroic arrests. Give me a frickin break. I've got ribbons, i know i have ribbons, and that's all that matters. I'm not so insecure with myself that i have to flaunt them everyday on my vest. If you wear those b/c you think fellow p.o.'s will think your cool or a great cop, think again. Wearing them on special occasions or dress blues situations fine, that's definitely cool, but otherwise put them in the bin next to all your honorables for paper jumpin.

Standing Ovation.
You said it PERFECTLY.
How about a ribbon for the most arrest? Like make it a career 10,000 club. But again, not fair for the house mouses. If you are the working police you should not have any problem achieving this in 7-10 years.
that award is for the hair gel police that never make an arrest
What about a Marksmanship award? I think they should have one for those who can pass the Advanced Pistol course at the Range. I think that not a lot of officers can pass that course. Not everybody can have one. No merits! I heard from range guys that not all SWAT personnel can pass it. It is not that easy, especially for regular p.o.'s to pass. We can go on our own time full duty gear, etc.
I BET ALL ARE ESTEEMED MARINE TYPES WILL PROUDLY DISPLAY IT. YOU JOKE ABOUT IT, BUT ALOT OF PEOPLE ON THE JOB DONT HAVE MUCH TO BE PROUD ABOUT.
THINK OF IT As the stickers the teachers give the slow kids when they do well.
Unless and until the CPD establishes categorical and unequivocal written standards for department awards, they have little meaning. Likewise, the term "merit" must be clearly defined for both assignments, educational opportunities and promotion in the CPD.
Officers assigned to the lowest crime rate district in the city make an arrest of a serial tagger for several incidents of graffiti vandalism while their counterparts in a high crime district interrupt an armed robbery-in-progress with a shotgun. The officers from both districts receive a department commendation. This is preposterous.
A detective has an outstanding record of clearing unsolved homicides and other felonies. He is promoted to sergeant and assigned to patrol for the rest of his career. Meanwhile, a clouted sergeant who never even served in the Detective Division is assigned to supervise veteran detectives.
An officer who served in military combat as a sniper is denied any opportunity to serve in SWAT.
An outstanding officer who would easily qualify for MENSA is denied any opportunity to attend the FBI Academy in Quantico or the Northwestern University Traffic Institute while a clouted borderline moron gets the nod.
Any officer, including the officers actually involved in outstanding police work, should be allowed to submit recommendations with documentation for department awards. All too often, there are supervisors who submit virtually no award recommendations while others may write up any routine arrest as worthy of an award.
And some wonder why CPD morale is nonexistent.
I think awards are exactly what this department needs to boost morale.
How about a PMA Award: Positive Mental Attitude.
WWWO Award: Works Well With Others
SAL Award: Smiles A Lot
GH Award: Good Hygene
Things along this lone would be a definite improvement and a real good boost. The department needs its people to feel needed, appreciated and necessary. Hell, how about an award for best bullshitter, war story teller or even "Remember when..." award. the more shit we can put on and be responsible for with our uniforms, the better.
I'm all for it!
ladies and gentleman of cpd an award and 2.00 can by you a large coffee at dunkin donuts. it does not matter how many awards you get because we are all one politically unpopular situation from being thrown to the wolves and all the awards will not save us.let us all get back to basics,the most important mission of the day is that every single officer you see at roll call comes to checkoff safe,healthy and not in the hospital. If this happens,ladies and gentleman we have accomplished our most important core mission,more important than "caps","outdoor rollcalls" and "doc missions."the way we can accomplish this is if you see the lights flashing,stop!,no matter if you are friends or not because one day that person you had a beef with can be the individual who keeps you from dying.No matter what the call is always put the odds in our favor.if there is two guys who supposedly have guns make sure we always outnumber the bad guys by having 3 or more. lets put the end to the petty beefs we have with each other and lets stand united. i mean if your fighting for your life and you call that 10-1,are you going to say,i do not want him here because i had a beef in a bar with him a while ago or i do not want this officer because the officer is woman,black,or brown? when that moment occurs,the only thing you think about is i want an officer there and i do not care who shows up. finally lets get back to being a family. when you see an officer,take the time to say hello. if you see an officer having a hard time,always take the time to extend yourself to this person,that one act of kindness can be needed to that person as water on a hot day. i believe that if we put an end to the beefs and stand united,we can be truly a powerful force and no one can conquer us.everybody be safe! stand tall and lets be good to each other.
Many years ago, two patrol officers arrested the offender in the brutal sexual assault and murder of a young woman attending the Moody Bible Institute.
In the aftermath, all the bosses praised such excellent police work. The area detective commander even promised the officers a meritorious detective promotion.
As weeks turned to months, these highly regarded officers were awarded absolutely nothing. Zilch. Nada. Zip.
Will we also get free upper deck right field corner seats to a Tuesday night Sox game against the Royals like when we were kids?
Then there was the case of the detective that was shot and wounded at Clark and Barry many years ago. His partner shot and killed the shooter.
Did this highly respected officer, now an under-promoted captain, ever get the Blue Star ribbon?
NO!
Yeah, I got this award for catching a murderer in a foot chase. I got this award for saving 5 kids in a fire. I got this award for showing up to work, not putting myself at risk for IOD and never go on medical, instead I sleep it off at work, give me my attendance award,
"Maybe you can help him find a new job."
Haven't seen a Cinderhead get fired for some off duty misdemeanor bullshit yet.
Unlike us they don't take suspensions or get fired for DUI's or Domestics. If you feel so bad why don't you donate your next 6mos. paycheck to him STROKE!!
ive got eight ribbons and all i have to say about these is..........look at the sos guys in particular carl suchocki. he would always wear his and he looked like a general..maybe 10 awards on his chest all comming after he left 009..does him real good now while soon to be sitting in the slammer. and look how they were awarded....just give me my paycheck and ill call it a career
The next time you can't get the day off you need, thank one of the 700 officers that abuse the medical on a daily basis. It's about time the department recognizes officers that actually take pride in showing up to work. At least it's a start. Now I hope they start going after these assholes that screw it up for all of us.
I know coppers south and west that have been working for more than a decade, great pinches...nothing.

WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA WHAAAAAAAAAAAA
I SHOULD BE A DETECTIVE!! ....THEY PROMISED ME!!......I MADE AN AWESOME ARREST AND SHOULD BE PROMOTED!! Many officers make those kinds of arrests many times over and don't get zilch so shut the F*CK up you whining idiot!
Several years ago my partner and I got involved in a shooting inside a store. He carried a big .45 and during the course of the shooting he blew two wooden shelves off the wall.Later we got some award paper and made him a Bob Vila award.
How about a ribbon for the most arrest? Like make it a career 10,000 club. But again, not fair for the house mouses. If you are the working police you should not have any problem achieving this in 7-10 years.
___________________________________
And just where do you work? Iraq? 10,000 arrests in 7-10 years? Lets do the math, shall we? We'll use 10 years as an example. That would come out to 1,000 arrests a year, every year. We work on average 220 days a year, providing for extended furlos, a sick day or two or even a mental health day. That works out to 4.5+ arrests every day you work for 10 years straight just to meet that 10,000 number. I've worked busy districts and slow ones in my 10 years, I known unbelievably great police officers in my time, and I'll tell you for a fact. NO ONE I've ever know pulled in 4.5+ arrests every day for 10 years straight, not in 011, not in 007.
If you want to do it in 7 years it goes up to just under 6.5 a day, every day. I've made as many as 11 arrests on one day (not a mission such as prost or drugs) and that inflated my numbers for a while. But I'd much rather get a 100 no bull shit arrests in a year award than mass arresting SUB or DOPW's.
My partner and I hump our butts off constantly making quality arrests. I think that 12:48 AM, Northside and 6:24 PM raise great points.
I truly believe that 10% of the officers make 90% of the great arrests.
Daley would love the idea of an award for the most parking tickets. An all pink ribbon would be appropriate. Meter maids should also be eligible.
shunned by sgts that never write anything for anybody, so Ill take a ribbon for perfect attendance. At least for that there will be a hard and fast rule for getting one......been to a few ceremonies...hilarious....first up, smith working 711 midnites got in a footchase, shot a guy, and recovered a pistol...congrats, heres a dc. Next we have Po smith working 1611 days. Wrote 100 parkers in one period on a caps spot in the doc. Congrats, heres a dc. Both guys did work for their dist, but come on! If you want ribbons, you should get more of them in a working dist, as there are more felony (non sholifting) arrests to be made. Therefore, there should be more "glory"
The Officer not working a beat car is not likely to have any IOD'S so once again I get screwed, you my friend are a softball. Awards on this dept mean nothing.
All exempts should be awarded an all fecal brown ribbon for their "achievement".

hey 9:21pm can i pin your ribbon on your chest, for being the biggest asshole on the department, get a life you pussy!

I remember that case in 018 well. Chuck Daley and his partner (an Italian surname) "on viewed" the outstanding arrest of the savage monster that raped and murdered the girl from the Moody Bible Institute.
I'll lay long odds that you couldn't make a patch on Chuck Daley's ass as a street copper.
Show some respect, you anonymous pathetic piece of shit.
By the way, 7:44 PM, you are referring to none other than then Area 6 Burglary detectives JF and his partner MM.

I happen to agree with the last paragraph by 9:21 PM.
And just who the fuck might you be, slick?
"They have been talking about rewarding those that dont hit the medical or I.O.D. for a while now and I guess they decided on this."
Note to everyone - nice to be recognized for something but this seems to be a pacifier and potentially a move to deflect attention from the fact that they've taken light duty away for any injuries not sustained while on duty. They should have given these awards before taking away our benefits - shows who they were focused on - those that abuse the system. I think this award is a slap in the face since they have harmed our future career/stability in a worse way by taking away a benefit. I hope I never get slammed by a drunk driver on the way home. I'll be hurt and out of a job. Just like Boston. Thanks CPD.
ON TOPIC: (Sort of)
As a supervisor, I have noticed many arrests by my personnel that I thought have been worthy of an Honorable Mention or more. I tell the officer(s) to leave me a copy of the arrest report, case report, etc.
90% of the time they don't give me any of the reports. If they aren't interested enough to make a copy, fold it in half, and put my name on it, why should I bother writing it up?
OFF TOPIC:

Maybe an old timer can help me out. Answer this, what is the point of the "narrative" section of the arrest report? I thought it was to establish probable cause for the arrest. Why do these desk Sgt. and W/C require a novel today? And what is with all this extra bullshit in the narrative, event #, Has ID, Gang affialtion, address of arrest, clear Data Warehouse, Hot Desk and Juvenile name check? Most of these "extras" already have a section on the arrest report.
6/04/2007 09:26:00 AM
Many of those requirements have been mandated by the Bureau of Patrol or inspectors, etc. The times that I have been desk sergeant, I can promise you, the Watch Commanders and Desk Sergeants would rather not have to deal with that BS. But I MUST comment about needing probable cause...You cannot imagine how many arrest reports get submitted by the "elite" SOS and TRU units, the detectives, Cold Case, etc., that apparently have never heard the phrase "probable cause". How about an arrest report for a homicide that never mentions that somebody got killed? Arrest reports that go to great lengths that to list all of the amazing actions the officer took, but never mention what the bad guy did? It happens much more frequently then you can possible imagine.
Okay, done venting now. off to throw a dart at tomorrow's worksheets and see who I'll SPAR next...
"Many officers make those kinds of arrests many times over and don't get zilch so shut the F*CK up you whining idiot!" - 8:51 PM
Oh, really? Do tell us "whining idiot(s)" more about these "many officers" who make repeated arrests of rapist murderers without receiving any credit.
"If they aren't interested enough to make a copy, fold it in half, and put my name on it, why should I bother writing it up?"
Lazy prick, If you noticed it then you have what you need to write up
the Honorable. Or is that jealousy coursing thru your veins, that there are POs that are better than you?
Norhtside, Welcome back, My
Brother! as usual U make your point. A reminder to all u young officers, when u have to do time, take it, do not give up your comp time, p days, v days bfd's, that is giving them double the days.
Hey supervisor, if U were doing your job I shouldn't have to leave U a copy of anything, U would have been there. If any1 remembers Sgt. Cole, in 007 back in the late 80's, (I believe retired as a Lt.), you "so-called" supervisors could take a lesson from him and learn how to write honorables, and attempts at dept. comm's.
I think that people who wear those stupid ribbons on their uniforms everyday are losers. It's like they are trying to show everyone that they are these super cops and make all these great heroic arrests. Give me a frickin break. I've got ribbons, i know i have ribbons, and that's all that matters. I'm not so insecure with myself that i have to flaunt them everyday on my vest. If you wear those b/c you think fellow p.o.'s will think your cool or a great cop, think again. Wearing them on special occasions or dress blues situations fine, that's definitely cool, but otherwise put them in the bin next to all your honorables for paper jumpin.
6/04/2007 03:48:00 PM
**************
First off........Who are you to decide that if an officer wants to wear his bars while working makes that person a loser?
You my friend are the person who has only the Democratic convention ribbon or the crime reduction ribbon because you are too stupid and too busy looking at other peoples vests to even find crime if it hits you in your waterhead!
I'll give you a little insight on why I wear mine while working.......it reminds me to be safe out there. It brings back good memories and some bad both reminding me of the job I have. It reminds me of the people I used to work with, some here some passed on. I'm not bragging as you say, but rather choosing to wear some dollar-less piece of metal and ribbon that I believe I have the right to wear because I have earned them workin in 007. If you feel threatened or embarrassed as I walk by then dont look.......just look down at your pathetic life and realize that you are the one who is the loser....and yes I do feel sympathy for you officer because of all of the things there are to talk about on this job your dumbass chose to talk about this! What a pity! Shame on you!
It has nothing to do about show boating or insecurity or beating my chest saying " look at me Im the greatest".
To some people on this job, you know...the ones with no juice, chinaman or whatever you wanna call it, or the ones with no phonecall......it means that those ribbons are his/hers and they earned them and maybe just maybe they are the only things that they hold dear and important because it reminds them of why they took this job.......to get the bad guy and go home safe to his family. Not just slide on by and do my "20" or 1st and 16th. I will end on that and wish you and everyone a safe night out there. May God watch over all of us. That ones for you G.C. MeryX-mas

hey 8:51pm go fuck your self.
WHAAAAAA WHAAAAA STILL CRYING??...HAVE YOUR MOMMY CHANGE YOUR DIAPER IDIOT!
I couldn't agree with the poster who made the statement as to the true "worth" of the Dept.ribbons/awards. They really aren't worth anything, because this Dept. has so many different standards as to WHO gets WHAT.
Like another poster said, I attended an awards ceremony once, and I was appalled at what I saw. I saw SS and WS officers awarded for acts of real courage, only to watch officers from certain Area 3
Districts that I won't name here receive awards for (1)recovering a stolen car (CAR ONLY!), and (2) an arrest of a person selling "knock off" labelled clothing. It just didn't set right with me that these two awardees from A/3 could stand on the same stage as officers who arrested murderers.
Unbelievable!
YOU shut the fuck up, punk!

From an oldtimer. If you feel they are asking for too much pick up the phone and call the street deputy. Tell the person on the phone you want the street deputy at the district you are located because the Watch Commander refuses to sign your arrest report.
Do not say a word to the Watch Commander just call the street deputy and wait. I promise you, you will get results.
I dont even wear mine. Who gives a shit. Its the egos and back stabbing etc. that has divided us.

Three cheers for the person who hasn;t missed for being on the medical. You guys complain about how the job is ruined, "the college educated suck, the rookies suck," on and on. Here is a person who loves the job enough to show up everyday. You don't know him, but he might be better at 80% then alot of officers are at 100%. Yes the medical is for those who are SICK. Those with heart conditions, cancer, or just a real bad case of the flu. Those who take it to get back at the city or becasue they're hung over ruin it for everyone. Every year it is a bargaining chip for the city becuse they want to take it away because of the abuse. Hit the medical becasue of a hangover, you sir are the one who needs to look at yourself. If you love this job come and enjoy it. If you don't, don't complain about those who do.

Get some help and meds after you sober up, dumbfuck!
First, based on my surname NORTHen, the late Tommy Creighton and Jimmy Shannon gave me the nickname "Johnny Northside" when we worked Area 6 (North Side) Homicide together. Despite the fact that I had West and South Side assignments most of my career, the nickname stuck.
I never said that Chuck Daley and his partner should have made dick. Chuck was one helluva copper and he liked working the then wild 018 and the bloody Green.
However, common sense and decency says that anybody, including you and your partner, should have at the very least received a department commendation for outstanding felony murder pinches. Daley never got shit. How about you?
Finally, what's with your homophobic paranoia, Freud? You're the type of wack job that thinks all cigar smokers are cocksuckers.
Oh, one other thing, no cojones punk. Unless you want to contact me directly at cpdfop7@yahoo.com, SHUT THE FUCK UP!

I f you work tact and do missions like operation angels and edges, you would know that that is 10 arersts or more for the day. That means 10 head one day maybe 2 the next maybe 6 the next thats what tact odes the last few years. I have 10,000 and I know many guys with 10,000. Get your facts straight, the arrests are weak but there is 10,000.
The ribbons for the 1996 Democratic Convention, Crime Reduction and now perfect attendance are commonly referred to at 35th Street as "the breathing awards".
What will they think of next? I like the all pink bar for the most parking tickets and the CAPS diversity award.

However those with juice will have a spot on light duty.
Officers assigned to the lowest crime rate district in the city make an arrest of a serial tagger for several incidents of graffiti vandalism while their counterparts in a high crime district interrupt an armed robbery-in-progress with a shotgun. The officers from both districts receive a department commendation. This is preposterous.
6/04/2007 06:24:00 PM
This is preposterous?? The difference between the two is:
The high crime district victims are most likely pieces of shit themselves. You know "todays victim is tomorrows offender".
The low crime district victim is actually a victim. Whether it's graffiti, theft or any other bullshit thing.
You guys in the high crime districts aren't detering anything. Guys in low crime districts are stopping it, hence the low crime status.
So keep protecting people that just don't want it.
To the anonymous poster bashing the "midget" tac car in 023: Since you know so much about the incident voice your displeasure to their face or are you intimidated by their physical stature? Keep surfing Manhunt.com closet weirdo MN!

We'll see where you are @ 4 years from now & see your attitude then. What an arrogant jag, Hate to be your kid, talk about a guy who "NEEDS IT", Scary.
I recall an old friend I met as a dick in Area 4 Homicide that may have qualified as the most decorated officer in CPD history. Later, back in the bag and up through retiring as a lieutenant, he invariably wore nothing on his right chest but his "HAMILTON" name plate.
Old Crosett was ok if he liked you, but his last protege, LT. JM is a stroke. HIs kids were also gangbanging shitheads.

I guess I won't get one for all the years straight I stayed off the medical when I was younger. Now I have some age-related medical problems and have been on the medical. Shame on me. At least the paper shufflers at HQ might have something to wear on their uniforms now. Thanks for another bright idea Cline.

shunned by sgts that never write anything for anybody, so Ill take a ribbon for perfect attendance.

6/04/2007 09:36:00 PM
IOD's? Huh? What were u reading?
I agree with 12:48. All this Dept. wants to do is what's politically correct. They'd rather give awards to do-nothins in slow Districts for B.S. than give more to the officers who work in the busy places [south and west sides].
Easier to screw them than to sacrifice P.C. And the Supervisors, for the most part, still as lazy as ever. I remember being told countless times after making gun, Robbery, Murder, Burglary, stolen Car arrests, etc; it's just your job. But make anything close to those arrests even once, in slow Districts like 022, 016, 001, 019, etc; and you will be decorated like a 4 star General. This Dept. is a f*C#in JOKE. Just remember, as long as it's Politically Correct, it's the CPD! Liberal Democrats at their best.

Hey SCC, can we get a ribbon for most posts? I think I hit five or six on this one alone....SO if i have perfect attendance, top gun, crime reduction, and buy myself the flag pin (cause it looks cool), couple that with the SCC blogger of the month award (SCC CPD Check yo ass award, whatever you want to call it), I too will look like a mexican general!!! I suggest a black pirate pin, white skull and crossbones....
To 11:24, you sir are an idiot. Although we supervisors would like to be on every job, especially ones where coppers do good work, we would. However, bewteen CAPS, seat belts, logging cars, CR#s,, SPARS, and babysitting two year wonders, its hard to be evrywhere. This is even more true in certain fast districts where you only have one or two Sgts a night. So, I think a copy of the case report is not too much to ask. Most officers I know have no problem doing that, especially since you have to make 9,000 copies for everybody. For that little effort, they have managed to get the awards they have earned.
I think that people who wear those stupid ribbons on their uniforms everyday are losers. It's like they are trying to show everyone that they are these super cops and make all these great heroic arrests. Give me a frickin break. I've got ribbons, i know i have ribbons, and that's all that matters. I'm not so insecure with myself that i have to flaunt them everyday on my vest. If you wear those b/c you think fellow p.o.'s will think your cool or a great cop, think again. Wearing them on special occasions or dress blues situations fine, that's definitely cool, but otherwise put them in the bin next to all your honorables for paper jumpin.
I wear mine because a supervisor took the time to gather the paper and submit the award on my behalf, alot of supervisors wouln't take the time it takes to do that and I appreciate them for it, it also shows they appreciate the work you for them; it also brings back memories, both good and bad.......

Liar. You're just talking smack, jerk. City-wide, in the last 4 yrs. (you say 2 yrs.), there was no on view arrest by the CPD for an armed robbery resulting in the double homicide of the victims. You definitely have some serious issues. Aside from your hate and jealousy, what's your point?
"just say thank you to 22nd District Officer keeping your sorry ass safe."
That was a joke, right?
YOU shut the fuck up, punk!
I remember that case in 018 well. Chuck Daley and his partner (an Italian surname) "on viewed" the outstanding arrest of the savage monster that raped and murdered the girl from the Moody Bible Institute.

(roll over or not), it's going to suck the big one. If you get hurt or sick other than (IOD)after your sick days are all used up, you start burning comp time and then your unused furlough. after that, no pay. thank all those jagoff's and bitches that hit the medical everytime their weekend is up each and every month and nothing is done about it. or how about "owie, i have a hang nail or a tummy ache and i don't want to come into work". fuck all you dogs...
While I'm bitchn' about shit. FUCK WOLF PACKING. FUCK DALEY - Hire more fucking police already. NO MANPOWER - hello MORE MONEY - contract - what 2 more years + to get bare minimum. bah humbug!!!!!!

And how many times did you call the street deputy old timer because of a disagreement with the WC? The street deputy will simply call the WC and ask what the fuck is going on. The only results this kid will get is to be fucked with for the rest of his career by that WC. Stop talkin shit old timer--you are a goof.
Chuck DALY and Mike ANGARONE, then 018, pinched one Larry SCOTT (M/1) for the rape and murder of the girl from Moody Bible Institute.
JF and MM, then Area 6 Burglary detectives, were involved in the shooting at Clark and Barry.
With the exception of JF, now a captain, all are now retired and healthy.
In both incidents, none of these fine officers received any award for their outstanding police work. In addition, JF sustained a serious GSW=No Blue Star.
BETTER LATE THAN NEVER, MR. SUPT.?
Sgt Golosinski ...now in 016 has always gone out of his way to write up honorables, D/C for hard working coppers...he would ask for a copy of the paper and write it up...no questions asked...he would always say "I'll write up anything,just give me a copy" and he does...we could use more like him and he has no problem bnacking you up either...unlike most Sergeants...never to be seen this guy is always working....probably too much! Thanks Sgt!

The dept should just start nailing the habitual medical abusers. Put up a medical abuser hall of shame for all to see ..the name, photo, unit of assignment and the number of times they hit the medical along with all the somatic complaints.
"I have the right to wear because I have earned them workin in 007."
Oh the Ghetto Warrior Hero, thank you for working in a community that will hang you out to dry in a minute
"Not just slide on by and do my "20" or 1st and 16th."
We'll see where you are @ 4 years from now & see your attitude then. What an arrogant jag, Hate to be your kid, talk about a guy who "NEEDS IT", Scary.

Let me tell u something u salty 5yr wonder, if u read my WHOLE post you will see that I was neither bragging or fulfilling some NEED that u say. I was being honest. Sure, ive been screwed alot working there because i like to work, i can deal with that and live with myself. Like i said i neither have or had any juice so where else was I supposed to go? Would I expect any different from them? Nope, probaly not. What i dont expect is the shit that spews out of P.O's mouths like yourself.
So lets see, in 4yrs I should have 14yrs on then right? I'll tell u my attitude will be the same. Whats will yours be? Mad at the world? Divorced? hated by all because u are a lazy, do nuthin, 9yr prick? Scary huh? thats your life so get ready. (you in 4yrs)
You'd hate to be my kid huh......well I dont have children , but I'd hate to be your fucking partner and I feel bad for anyone that has to work with or be near you. You are an asshole for even saying something like that and it shows your TRUE COLORS. Re- read my post and post an itelligent response till then..... GFY!

Any copper who worked the wagon during the '95 heat wave (with all those awful stinkers) should get a ribbon w/ that. I proudly salute those poor guys. God bless them.
I weatr my ribbons for funerals, St. Judes and jury trials. It makes the jury think you are a very decorated and heroic officer and therefore more credible, hey how will they know different? Other wise I dont wear them because I think it looks tacky. Thats just my opinion though. If you wanna wear them because you are proud of them, cool, good for you office.
I am an admitted dog, however. I come to work everyday, answer my calls and back up my fellow coppers. If they pay me and I am healthy enough I am obligated to come to work-----not for the city or the "citizens" but for my fellow coppers
Cry me a river, nobody is stoping you from taking FREE days off!!!! If my tummy hurts or I have an owie Im hitting the medical for atleast 3 days and maybe an entire week if I feel like paying my doctor a visit. I know your such a hero coming to work and saving this rat hole of a city, what a joke. Im all about the 1st,16th,Uniform,Duty Avail, and FREE days off!! Im a dog, woof woof woof. Its about me and my family not this crap job.

Boy, I sure hope YOUR family never needs the police. How would you like it if the officers that responded had an attitude like yours?
6/05/2007 07:57:00 PM
Sounds like the Who's Who of the outfit. All Hanhardt guys, goof.
RE-VICTIMIZER AWARD - too the officer who feels compelled to motherfuck a legit victim on scene.
........................................................................THAT WOULD HAVE TO GO TO A/1 HOMICIDE DICKS IN A BIG HURRY TO GET TO TAVERN...........
I f you work tact and do missions like operation angels and edges, you would know that that is 10 arersts or more for the day. That means 10 head one day maybe 2 the next maybe 6 the next thats what tact odes the last few years. I have 10,000 and I know many guys with 10,000. Get your facts straight, the arrests are weak but there is 10,000.
6/05/2007 09:20:00 AM
Yeah sure you do, and I'm sure you keep a copy of them all in your closet so you can masterbate all over them. I've worked tact for years as well, and no one I know is coming in with 10 one day, 2 the next and 6 the next day. Unless of course your entire team goes on the paper for every arrest which is pimp shit. Missions are one thing, but if you or your partner didn't put the cuff on em, take all those arrests out of your file. And another thing, don't say you have 10,000 arrests and then say they are weak and think anyone of us out here thing you are the real police. Get your mommy to read this site so someone can care.

Did he say Schnoor??? Woo-Woo!
Does Sergio Oliva count???
to the Sgt. who tells his men to leave copies of their good arrests for submitting for Honorables, Why don't YOU make the copies, LAZY? Some supervisor. Your men are probably too modest to ask, why don't you just get off your ass and do it yourself cause it's the right thing to do, and also YOUR job.Typical Supervisor mentality. I bet if it was a good looking Female officer you'd copy those reports and anything else needed right away wouldn't you? YOU SUCK. BLOW ME.
If the Dept. was serious and fair, they should have a ribbon indicating cumulative FELONY arrest incidents in multiples of 100. That would put all the B.S. aside and truly honor working police officers.
No misdemeanor arrests count. Just Part 1 felonies.

To some people on this job, you know...the ones with no juice, chinaman or whatever you wanna call it, or the ones with no phonecall......it means that those ribbons are his/hers and they earned them and maybe just maybe they are the only things that they hold dear and important because it reminds them of why they took this job.......to get the bad guy and go home safe to his family.
Not true some get awards others get nothing for the same police work. connections account for everything insofar as this job goes.

Nice try mongaloid. How the hell did you ever pass any test to get on this job will forever be a mystery. I think the truth hurt you more than anything, struck a chord with you? unfortunately we now know that in fact your parents procreated and had you. Good luck in your pathetic life. bad editing on my name though, at least be original. Oh by the way, how does it feel working in a shit district, on a shit car knowing that you will be goin home to your shitty pathetic life because you are in fact a shitbag? sweet dreams tool.
***from the tool lover***
Don't expect the sargeant to be on top of all of your outstanding efforts. If you think your pinch deserves an award, make a copy, and leave it for the boss. It's not that difficult. Most of the time, the Sgts. are on top of that stuff, but sometimes they get sidetracked with other duties, or maybe they were off on the day when you got the Homicide offender.
But most want to do the right thing, and putting in those HM awards on the computer is a snap!
Heck, even your watch commanders can submit them, if your sgts. don't want to be concerned with it.
I've seen Lts. and Cpts. submit them for the troops as well. If by some chance you have a Sgt. who, for whatever reason, doesn't wish to acknowledge your efforts, I would leave a copy for HIS boss.
To 9:48 6/6/07....First of all...I'm married...and unlike you..I respect all police officers on this job..even big mouths like yoursels for you too must have "some" usefullness besides being part of the problem. Secondly, I would like to say "Thank you" to whomever posted about me..I have always loved being a police officer and enjoy my job...still...I also am definately NOT lazy...my reputation speaks for itself...I probably have submitted more awards in the last year than you have made total arrests...and I submit anything that is asked of me without question...what happens after it is submitted is out of my hands. It is not my job to copy YOUR reports...if you want it submitted the very least you could do is supply me with a copy so I can type it up...by the way...when I was a patrolman I would never had the balls to tell my Sgt to Copy the report for "My" award...I think you all know what the answer is to that one...Lastly your comment about "Your men are probably too modest to ask" for me to submit an award for them..."I" ask for them to make me an extra copy so I may submit it..you need to read the post again...I have never thought of myself as better than anyone...ask around and you'll find that out...I have no problem ever ...going out of my way to help a fellow police officer..."That's" my job!
Sgt. M. Golosinski...your name was??
Archiefuckin Bunker, Polock Meat-head....
Not many cops left on the job.
Who ever said "not many cops left on the job" said it all. Back stabbers, rats, and cry babies about cover most of them. What happened to the camaraderie?
