Sergeants Lawsuit
We don't often cover issues exclusive to bosses. We know that bosses read this site, but for the most part, we cover stuff of interest to the guys and gals on the front lines. But this kind of affects everyone who hopes to be promoted one day. The Sergeants Association lost their initial appeal in court this week to stop the Lieutenant "re-test" as it utilizes the exact same questions/scenarios as the earlier version, meaning every single person has the questions in advance, undermining the theory of test being an evaluation of "thinking on one's feet."
We don't know who this judge is (Bernetta D. Bush) that ruled for the City, but it's obvious she has no grasp of reality. Here's part of the City's lawyers reasoning to deny the suit that she bought hook, line and sinker (from Second City Sarge):

- 51 of the original tests had technical problems.
None of the tests had been scored.
The City’s Attorneys stated this is a fair process. Additionally, there is the 30% meritorious process available to every eligible candidate.
Two of these statements appear to be mutually exclusive. If the City knows there were 51 original tests with "technical problems" how can they say none of the test were graded? The City had these tests for 6 months and nothing got graded? Sorry, but we're calling bullshit on that one. And the 30% meritorious "available" to every eligible candidate? Excuse us while we laugh. And laugh. And laugh some more. A "mericloutorius" position is only available to a certain select few of proper blood lineage and political sponsors.
Here's our theory, based on years of experience and observation of the City promotional processes:
Here's our theory, based on years of experience and observation of the City promotional processes:
- The tests were graded. And the results didn't turn out anything like what the City had planned. We're talking light years from the City's expectations.
- The City dreamed up this "re-test" to provide connected persons with a second opportunity to take what is now a known test - known so well that even Sun Times columnist Mark Brown has the questions and has published them in the newspaper.
- This time, the City has changed the answers instead of the questions. And certain people will have the key words or phrases that will get them that extra point or two since everyone is going to score better this time since they know the test. Certain key words like "notify the Watch Commander" or "a writing instrument" or even "a large pepperoni pizza" will carry the day for connected persons, leaving more "mericloutorious" positions available to the real morons.
And if the City gets away with this for Lieutenant's promotions, who knows what they are going to do for Sergeants and even Detectives? We are so doomed.

Oh c'mon SCC you really aren't that naive?
You're purporting the examination process is legit in the 1st place?
The Sgt.'s should be thankful they were promoted and concentrate on treating people right.
Lawsuit?
Lame @ best& utterly ridiculous...
Good god,stressing about merit, 30% etc.
PLEASE!!!
ALL PROMOTED POSITIONS ARE MERIT! NO ONE HAS EVER MADE IT LEGIT!!!
If you are not a minority, a broad, a political hack, or in a protected catagory, you have no chance for promotion. The city should just give the promotions to their pals and dispense with the charades of a "testing" process.
So much for da Mare's hypocritical drivel about "openness, transparency, accountability and credibility".
Oh, nevermind. That's just for his NEW version of OPS, not his filthy rigged promotional "process".
Give the apathetic taxpaying sheep the policing they so deserve.
To hell with excellence, integrity and professionalism. It's just not the Chicago Way.
I love 6:45 A.M. Another of "I am the smartest and greatest Copper out there" so since I didnt make it nobody made it legit. Why dont you take a flying F**K at a rolling donut, asswipe. I was laughed at because I took a furlo to study. I was laughed at because I paid for the Bernstein Class which did help me (by the way it paid for itself after 2 sgt. checks. I was laughed at because I took it seriously. Well guess who's laughing now. Get back in your beat car and whine to the recruits about how great coppers like you are always screwed, and keep doing it during the next study period for the next test, and ill kepp telling you what to do.
Hold on just one minute!!!!!!!! Are you insinuating that promotional exams are not 100% legit?? Now I've heard it all.
ALL PROMOTED POSITIONS ARE MERIT! NO ONE HAS EVER MADE IT LEGIT!!!
BULL SHIT, I made it on my own 2 times, I fell between the cracks which is very difficult I know. But the point of this retest is to try and take away that chance at all. I believe that this is the last Lt. test the next will be all merit no test at all. This retest and the problems with it will be used to justify the city not giving a test in the future. The idea of the tests not being scored yet is also a joke. SCC is 100% right, they did not like the results so they are going to roll the loaded dice this time.
Quit crying will ya, just because you didn't pass a test doesn't mean nobody can make it legit, it just means appearently you can't....
I studied my ass off for the last Sgts. test and scored in the low 200's and made it on my own, no clout, no merit, just study will ya..
it has been rigged from years ago! if your not connected your going nowhere! I am not saying few very few fall through the cracks, but the odds are against that! A NEW TEST WTF? WHO WILL HAVE THE KEY ANSWERS? CLOUT CLOUT CLOUT MAKE YOU CALLS NOW THE LINES ARE OPEN 1-800-ED-BURKE, IF BUSY 1-800-RI-DALEY OR CALL WITH CREDIT CARD IN HAND 1-800-ALD-THUG! CALL!CALL!CALL! DONATE!DOMNATE! ENVELOPE!ENVELOPE!
TO: 06:45:00
You, sir, are an idiot if you truly believe that no one has ever been promoted legit. It sounds to me like you're crying sour grapes.
It's such an attitude that will prevent you from ever doing well on a promotional exam. Because of this thought process, you will never really put forth the effort to properly prepare yourself for the exam. Too bad.
I appplaud the Sergeants' Association for trying to stop this re-test charade, but I question the decision to file suit in state court.
Any relief granted against the police department in matters of hiring and promotion has come from the federal court system where judges are appointed for life and beholden to no one.
The state court judges, within Cook County in particular, are beholden to the Cook County Democratic Party due to the corrupt "slating" process that takes place for the election of judges.
Who runs the Cook County Democratic Party? The Daley Brothers - Dick and John. Who is responsible for the this Lieutenant Exam do-over? None other than our mayor.
So, what is the chance lieutenant candidates will be granted relief from the City's patently unfair re-test process in state court? NONE whatsoever.
Once again, the unconnected have to hope that there is some crack in the promotional process through which they could fall to legitimately be promoted to lieutenant.
Highlights from the hearing before Judge Bernetta D. Bush.
1. The city’s lawyers argue that even if the test is flawed, the Sergeants still have other ways to get promoted, the 30% meritorious. The 25 Sergeants in the courtroom spontaneously let out a huge laugh. Judge Bush then threatens to clear the courtroom.
2. Although the City’s study guide repeatedly states that the test questions are “designed to test your ability to think on your feet when encountering spontaneous situations.” The City’s lawyers argue that the fact that the test takers know all of the questions is completely irrelevant.
3. Judge Rush stated that the City has a long history of corrupt testing practices.
4. The test guide states in several places that the answers to the questions “will be scored according to detailed scoring guidelines developed with these (CPD) subject matter experts and senior command personnel in the Chicago Police Department.” The City’s lawyers denied the reality that these CPD personnel would have talked to Sergeants after the first test and let them know what answers they were looking for thus giving these Sergeants an unfair advantage.
I could go on but I have to go review my answers.
speaking of promotions...when the heck is the next class off the sgt's list going to start?? Do they plan on making more than one class a year??
Some of the questions are very subjective. Who knows what the "City" thinks is the right answer. I don't want the job, but won't gift wrap it for some 5 year wonder boy/girl newbie.
Noelle Brennan...are you reading??? Nothing has changed...and Nothing will...just take your hefty paycheck and call it a day...Thanks for making it look good...
Why can't the City understand that not everyone in this city is smoking crack and that normal people see the City's position of using the same questions as ethically indefensible?
To 6/22/2007 06:45:00A.M.
I understand your bitternes and frustration, but you can be promoted legitimatly on this job.
Granted it is hard but it can happen. I have been.
Legit - Ha! Nothing about this dept. is legit. The P.O.s should sue for unfair promotional practices. How else can a dog-ass p.o. who never did jack sh*t get promoted in the first place? The real ball buster is that the same p.o.s that were dogs on the street (if they even worked the street)become sgt/lt/cmdr etc., and expect everyone else to work like japanese beavers to bring in #s just to make themselves look good. What a joke! And what's with these female supervisors? Here's a tip: you don't treat people like sh*t to get respect; that just reaffirms that you neither deserve nor earned your rank - remember that respect is earned, not given. Let's face it, this job runs itself, so little, if any supervison is required. The p.o.s know what to do, so let them do their job. And if one of them does screw up, the whiteshirts are covered -- they will sacrifice a blueshirt to appease the ignorant masses. Take your promo, your paycheck, and be thankful ...enough said?

SCC:
I'm a sergeant, not a "boss".
"The Sgt.'s should be thankful they were promoted and concentrate on treating people right" . . .
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The sergeants were NOT promoted to lieutenant.
I could easily say that YOU should be happy to have just been hired as a P.O. and treat the citizens right instead of worrying about making detective or sergeant.
All many coppers ever worry about is themselves .. (Perhaps one day you will be a sergeant attempting to make lieutenant or a lieutenant attempting to make captain)
One-Way selfish assholes like you will be the first ones to agree to a "two-tier" system if the city offers one during contract negotiations. ie; Give the new guy only 10 medical days so you can get an extra 3% raise OR.. perhaps drop the meritorious promotions to only 10% so YOU CAN MAKE SERGEANT.
You selfish fucking prick.
Just want to make a quick comment her, and for the record I’m a Sergeant.
To the 6/22/2007 06:45:00 AM poster….SCREW YOU! I made Detective on my own by taking the test and scoring in the top 80. I also made Sergeant 12 years ago on my own by scoring in the top 170, so your contempt for the system and your inability to get yourself promoted should mean nothing to those of us who have done it on our own. Grow up and think rationally, your conspiracy theorist attitude seems to be keeping you down.
Relating to the Lieutenant’s test… I took the test and had no technical difficulties. On the day of the test though, I did hear several complaints about some simple things like the tape recorder malfunctioning and a laptop shutting down and needing to be rebooted. I really don’t care that there are several candidates that need to be retested. I think they did the right thing by asking for anyone who had TECHNICAL problems to come forward and put it on record. I also think in the spirit of fairness, those who did come forward and have documented cases of technical problems (You know the proctors will have it documented too), should have an opportunity to take an oral portion again. However, I think that a NEW oral portion should be created (At the cost of the testing company) and re administered to the “51” who had problems. Giving the same question is an outrage! Yes, everyone has the opportunity to take it again, but, 1) Why should I have to and 2) Why is everyone getting a second chance, even though they didn’t have a documented technical issue. The answer to #1 - In order to compete with those who now have the answers, #2 - Well, I guess therein rests the opportunity for scandal, and the fuel for the conspiracy theorists. The only fair process would be to retest the “51” with a new oral and let the other grades stand. I don’t know what mine is, I’m sure someone does, but I did what I did on the day of the test. So did everyone else! Hold the grades until the “51” are tested and graded and promote the winners (And the 30% of course).
Back each other up and use the resources we have available. Apply the right resources and we’ll win, just use the power of the pen and be able to justify whatever you do. We can lawfully do much more that we ever do, and it’s ok, just justify it! Never let anyone ride on a job alone- your presence means more than you think.
Appeal Denied.
Definition of Insanity: Testing 660 people’s ability to think on their feet by asking them questions you have already given them.
And if the City gets away with this for Lieutenant's promotions, who knows what they are going to do for Sergeants and even Detectives? We are so doomed.
WHAT THE HELL DO YOU MEAN "GOING TO DO..."? THEY'RE DOING IT NOW!!! WHAT THE HELL TOOK SOOO LONG TO GRADE OUR TESTS? MAKING SURE THAT EVERY CLOUT BABY'S SCORE ADDED UP JUST ENOUGH TO GET PROMOTED. THEY ARE DOING IT THIS WAY SO THAT THEY KEEP THE FEDS AT BAY. THE ILLUSION THAT EVERYTHING IS ON THE UP-AND-UP AND YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN!!!! INVITATION ONLY "STUDY CLASES", ETC., ETC.,. THIS WAY THEY STILL HAVE 30% MERITORIOUS. IT'S MORE LIKE 50-60%. JUST LOOK AT ALL THE PEOPLE WHO SCORED WELL ON THE TEST. I KNOW QUITE A FEW OF THEM WHO CAN'T WALK AND CHEW GUM AT THE SAME TIME. OF COURSE, THERE ARE A FEW WHO FELL THROUGH THE CRACKS. JUST ASK ONE OF THE FEW REAL GOOD SGT'S....THEY'LL TELL YOU..."I FELL THROUGH THE CRACKS". THEY TELL US THIS THEMSELVES, REMEMBER??? "JUST ONE OR TWO POINTS ARE GOING TO SEPARATE YOU FROM EVERYONE ELSE". WHY CAN'T WE SEE OUR ANSWERS AFTER THEY'VE BEEN SCORED??? ADD IT ALL UP...IT STINKS TO HIGH HEAVEN AND WE'RE THE ONE'S WHO GET SCREWED. THE CITY DOES EVERYTHING TO KEEP THE FEDS OUT... i.e. TRAFFIC STICKERS, CONTACT CARDS, ALL THE USELESS PAPER GENERATED. IF THE FEDS COME IN LIKE IN L.A., THERE GOES CLOUT AS YOU KNOW IT. MERITORIOUS WILL STILL EXIST BUT AS IT SHOULD, WITH THE DESERVING GETTING THE PROMOTIONS. THEN THE CITY WILL TRY ELIMINATE THE MERITORIOUS IN THE VERY NEXT CONTRACT. OH WHAT A WORLD IT WOULD BE!!!!!!
The Sgt.'s should be thankful they were promoted and concentrate on treating people right.

Typical malcontent attitude. The logic goes like this; If I can't make it then the process can't be legit.
Every police ofc needs to apply for part of the 12million dollar shakman settlement. And the sgts union needs to negotiate down the 30% merit. It is a joke the city cannot even define what merit is. Here a hint merit in chicago is who you know and who you blow.
sure sounds like sour grapes
if you study hard 2 or 3 hours a day you have a chance to get promoted without clout

Sergeant, go read our little essay in the right hand column near the top that is titled "Problem #6 - Supervisors vs Bosses."
Boss isn't a slam in this case.
When I got promoted in '96, a judge blocked some meritorious promotions because he said the city "changed the rules" aftey they gave the test. It took them over 10 years, but the city finally found their loophole: instead of changing the rules, change the answers!
Now excuse me while I go to the basement and practice my answers out loud. I have to work on getting the sarcastic and bitter tone out of my voice.
Maybe for each answer I should just giggle like an idiot and say "This is just silly silly silly."
to 9;01am
I believe u made it legit! They have to promote a few legit guys. U dont think they're going to send their clout boys to midnites in 011 or 15?
Hold the grades until the “51” are tested and graded and promote the winners (And the 30% of course).
===============================
FOR THE RECORD, I ALSO TOOK THE TEST WITHOUT ANY MALFUNCTIONS AND ARE CONFIDENT IN MY ANSWERS, BUT HAVING JUST THE 51 RETAKE A TEST WITH NEW QUESTIONS IS NOT FAIR EITHER, MAYBE THEY WILL BE EASIER QUESTIONS? AND WHATS THE CITIES DEFINITION OF MALFUNCTION, ID THOSE 51 PROCTORS WHERE ON THE BALL, THOSE 51 SHOULD AHVE RETAKEN THE TEST THE SAME DAY, JUST MOVE TO ANOTHER CLASS, BUT IS THAT FAIR?? WITH THE TECHNOLOGY WE HAVE TODAY, AND THE MILLIONS OF DOLLARS SPENT ON THE TEST, WE CAN'T DO ANY BETTER THAN MAXWELL CASETTE TAPES AND BRADY BUNCH TAPE RECORDERS??? WE CAN'T HAVE THE ANSWERS DIGITALLY DOWNLOADED, CHECKED FOR MALFUNCTIONS BEFORE WE LEAVE...??? THE ONLY FAIR WAY TO DO IT IT TO #1 THROW IT OUT, #2 GIVE EVERYONE RETEST W/NEW QUESTIONS......SEE YOU TOMORROW AT THE RETEST...
IM A SGT AND YES, I DID GET PROMOTED W/O CLOUT. I SCORED VERY VERY WELL. BUT AND I SAY BUT I STUDIED EVERY DAY AND I MEAN EVERY DAY. I GOT LUCKY, I KNEW THE MATERIAL AND ANSWERED WELL. BUT IT IS A FUCKED UP PROCESS. I WILL BE GOING TO LANE TECH TO RETAKE THE ORAL PORTION OF THE TEST AGAIN, BUT TO WHAT AVAIL, I DO NOT KNOW. I DO THINK THAT THIS FIASCO IS A PRECURSSER TO APPOINTING LIEUTENANTS FOR ANY FUTURE PROMOTIONS, IN OTHER WORDS NO MORE WRITTEN TEST, JUST APPLICATIONS, INTERVIEWS, WRITTEN THEMES, LIKE THE CAPTS. USED TO DO.
BUT ANYWAYS, JUST A THOUGHT, THIS DEPT. IS CRASHING AND BURNING BEFORE OUR EYES. ONLY 6 YRS 2GO BABY!!!

BY THE WAY I HAVE BEEN IN KMA FOR SOMETIME AND YES I CALL THE SGT FOR ANYTHING THAT I NEED HELP WITH GUESS I AM HELPLESS THANKS TO CLOUTED SGTS WORK HARD BOYS AND GIRLS!
Tomorrow morning another sham promotional test will be given by the city, for all you supervisors out there that are taking the exam and reading our website, notice who is not there. There will be at least three people not there, who did not altogether take the second part of the test who will get promoted, IN THE FIRST CLASS.
Also everyone saying it is unfair to have the same question over for the second part of the test, the city will agree, and instead of the first part being pass or fail your raw score will count in the rankings.
I really do not give a shit though because you will still one grade in pay ahead of me, eventhough many of you do not deserve it. To the ones who have earned I am sorry this is happening to you, to the ones that have skated never worked and been promoted anyway, how does it feel to have a cock stuck so far up your ass that you are puking a foreskin. Not real nice, I know. Sign me 16 years a patrol officer.
I am NOT retesting..fuck it, it is what it is..
the cha 2nd lawsuit got thrown out. can you say da judge is in daley's pocket or what. what a fucking joke. daley can lick my hairy balls and lick my bumpy brown shit stained raw asshole. i fucking hate mayor daley. he is the biggest stroke and has so many people fooled with the smoke and mirror game. i have to go puke now cause i mentioned that dickheads name one too many times. be safe my fello brothers and sisters in blue.

30% meritorious is 3 times more than the city should get but belittling those who did crack the top 300 is disingenious on your part.
What happen malcontent? Did you take the last sergeants test and finish 2000 on the list? How could that be? Your the smartest copper out there.

The best part of the re-test today was that they kept us from leaving the building until the next group was let in for the test. I guess there were worried we would tell the next group what was on the test!

The only reason why you don't think a sergeant can make your life hell is because you have some easy going Sgts where you’re at.
If a sergeant gets a hard on for you, he can follow you to every job and make your life hell. He can demand that everyone checkoff at 20 after the hour and then put the blame on you because you refuse to conform.
Yes, he can nitpick about every little thing (hell, he can even set you up) And nowadays, they have video cameras so don't think about setting his car on fire or putting a brick through his house window.
I have seen the biggest and worst jag-off sergeants in my 34 years. And the bottom line is YOU LOSE, your life will be miserable. You can only hope the guy has a grabber and dies or else you have to bid out.

Therein lies the problem personality conflicts and they resort being Bullies. Chicago Police Department where you can be the Biggest Jagoff in the World & get rewarded for it.
Any one see a problem with that?

Great you studied. Promotional tests are not a good indicator to measure a person's ability to lead. At least not the one I took.
SO . . .
The bottom line is it sounds as though there might have been a number of screw-ups on THIS RE-Test.. Perhaps notification should be made to LT. Lyle MYERS in Personnel and the SGTs Association. MYERS was the one who gathered all the To/Froms for all the beefs from the January test
. . . here we go again! Screw this damn city ! !
You know, I did not have a problem with the test being given again until the day of the test. As I stood in line waiting past 10:30 to get into the test, a few of the guys and I started talking. The 9 of us were talking about the scenarios. I thought I did very good the first time, but wanted to add a few details to one of my scenarios, so I re-took the test. The guys I was talking to were all idiots. They all allowed the protestor to protest and had no idea the security guard could make an arrest. They all laughed because now they knew the answers, and were given the chance to redo the test.
I really have an issue with this. They probably scored 790 - 799 out of 800 the first time, but now can actually give me competition when they don't know jack shit, and did not even study for the test. I studied my entire vacation for the first test and all of my days off, missed family and friends functions, etc. I am tired of being the middle man and just want out legitimately.
This re test thing is totally fucked up.

Did anyone watch Fox News about P.O. Valerie Allen is suing Cline because she felt she was passed over for making sergeant, what an asshole she is. How dare she go to the press with this bullshit.
She admitted she just missed out on passing the test but she felt she should have been considered for a meritorious promotion.
If I'm right, she worked in the Superintendant's office when Hillard ran it, in fact she might have been one of his secetaries so why didn't he promote her before he left Hmmmmm........
You could watch her interview at myfoxchicago.com
GEE, NOW THERE'S A SURPRISE: A Daley appointed political hack democRAT judge rules in favor of the city. (Daley)
Follow me sgt to every job then maybe we will match wits and again you lose! anyday anytime! "DO YOU FEEL LUCKY WELL DO YOU PUNK"! BRING ON THE PAIN ASSHOLE!

You can match wits with the moron (shithead?) sergeant . . however can you give him time? NO! He or she will stick it up YOUR ASS!
Have you ever heard of Capt C.W. in 005????? The BIGGEST moron over-promoted goof on the job now. At least 300 people have left districts were she came and laid her shit. WHY? Because they know she can fuck them.
Please tell me you are a PPO , otherwise you are an idoit yourself. Perhaps never had a bad day on this job with a jag-off boss.
