Talked to a friend of mine, who is an ASA in Skokie. She told me about a robbery case from 023 Dist. where the officer is attempting to sabotage the case. Apparently, this officer, S.H. F/4, doesn't like going to court or is afraid to testify so she is sabotaging the case. What is going on in 023 Dist? This is the second time this year that an officers has done this. Last time, M.M-W. F/1, wrote a letter, to the judge, on behalf of the defendant, that was also charged with robbery.
the list was pretty much already out. 3/4's of those people went into the pre-sgt's detective training 3 periods ago. Congrats to all those who scored well and made it on their own...
Also a congratulations to the two PO's in 021 who let a prisoner close the bathroom door in Michael Reese Hospital only for him to get caught trying to escape in the ventilation system.
the sgts list is the same list that came out 90 days ago, only with the detectives added to the list that didnt have to do the 90 day detail...its not a new list
Forget promotions, what about my pension? Nice to see the midget Mayor has let the funding drop to below half of the obligation. Only the CFD has it worse than us.
City's pension funds growing weaker
Crain's Chicago Business By Greg Hinz July 27, 2007
(Crain’s) — The financial condition of the city’s employee pension funds continues to weaken, despite what until recently has been a booming stock market. All four of Chicago’s pension funds lost ground in the year ended Dec. 31, with the “funded ratio” of assets to liabilities dropping to as low as 40% in the case of the firefighter’s fund.
The funds are in a “precarious position,” said Laurence Msall, president of the Civic Federation, a tax watchdog group that for years has been warning of a looming pension crisis.
With the funds caught in a structural deficit in which costs are rising faster than income, “They need to increase contributions and significantly reduce benefits to bring costs down to an acceptable level,” Mr. Msall said.
Details about the lagging pension plans are contained in the city’s audited financial statement for 2006, which was released late Thursday.
The statement indicates that the funded ratio dropped one or two percentage points for each of the funds last year, with the police fund now having 49% of the assets needed to cover expected liabilities, the laborer’s fund 92% and the municipal fund 67%.
Most private-sector retirement funds try to maintain at least a 90% funded ratio.

I heard Mike Kozenko was promoted?? This can't be true...is it?? Where is he these days? I heard he strong armed some nitwit sergeant into going into a rehab with him and used the sgt's money to rehab the house...then threatned to kick his ass over the sale of the project?? Where is Mike Kozenko...say it's not true...last I heard he was waiting to get fired for beating his ex and then a second arrest for VOOP...he's getting promoted??? No way!!
I am sure everyone on that list is well qualified ...........................................hahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha ooooooooooooooooo hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha ooooooooooooooooooooo hahahahahahahahahahahah
The Dubuque County prosecutor has a pdf file that you can download that has more info on the Mette case. http://www.dubuquecounty.org/offices/countyattorney/index.html
according to crains chicago buisness the chicago police pension fund is now funded at a whopping 49% we are in alot of trouble here. Donahue and the boys have sold us down the river he keeps letting the city skip payments. Retire now if you can and lock in your pension because 401k's are coming and the young guys are going to get raped with no lube.
Letters to the editor Unfair punishment for Mette From Terry Hay 105 E. Henry, Mount Pleasant, Iowa
Timothy Gallagher prosecuted Michael Mette and won the case before Judge Monica Ackley. I gather from stories in print that the judge acknowledged the fact that the young cop was followed when he tried to leave to avoid a confrontation. The judge also acknowledged that Mette was pushed and shoved "two or three times" by Jake Gothard, the victim. I also gather that Mette punched Gothard and received five years in prison.
Unless newspaper reporters are submitting slanted articles or editors are omitting key facts, it would seem that Gothard should be the one convicted of criminal behavior. Articles I've read indicate the judge and prosecutor believe Mette should have ignored the assault on his person and possibly taken a beating.
Is this sloppy journalism, or is justice on vacation
Dont know them all but two people on the list should make every patrolman nervous.. Here are their initials and the units they came from. F. V.(024) M. L.(640)
I have not seen the list. I will however tell you that one of the merits were bragging that they (he) didn't even bother to take the second part of the test. what a Jagoff... I hope you get 10 guys just like you...
The city is not holding up their pension obligations because they want to sell us the idea of going to a 401k type plan. Do not agree to this. Our union should be in Springfield or suing the city at the federal level to ensure they are keeping their pension obligations. And for gods sake, vote no on the olmypics. A financial fiasco.
If you don't start inquiring about your pension now...........don't say a damn thing later when the politicans screw you and yours for the rest of your life. While we're bickering about who might be the next Super. New Lts. or SGTs. our future is becoming more and more endangered and WE AREN'T RAISING ANY HELL ABOUT IT!!!! Maybe it will serve us right when our turn comes to retire, the money might not be there for US or OUR families.

Are you that much out of the loop? Most of them are from districts all but the detectives were detailed to the area for 90 days of investigative familiarity training. Where have you been?
The reason it says they are detailed to the detective division is because they were for 90 days for the training. Get your head out of your buttocks!
Also a congratulations to the two PO's in 021 who let a prisoner close the bathroom door in Michael Reese Hospital only for him to get caught trying to escape in the ventilation system.
I would love to see the probability of someone scoring 2 on the Det test and 1 on the Sgt test....reason being M.L. from 640 did just this. One might say, she's a good test taker, the counter argument would be you can be a good test taker but how in the hell do you not know how to complete a case report or an arrest report. Ask her academy friends and recent co-workers, before she made Det. She is such a blithering idiot that they don't let he work any case by herself in the D unit and she works the desk more times than not! Something here is amiss. Someone should look into this.

7/27/2007 02:13:00 PM Ok deputy director here is a question why do you have all the clout hacks such as the one who does not work initials DZ who is an investigator (he says he writes parking ticket in the 23rd ward, would this position not be better served with meter maids? thing job! why is his wife in a do nothing job in the clerks office? REFORMERS PLEEEZE!
TO: "50 Sgts yup...ALL from the det units..... Ummmmmmmmmm Cline's last hooooorah??"
You are an idiot. How many times do we have to explain that the detective unit next to someone's name is where they did their 90 day detective's detail.
Most are from districts. Good thing you're not a det.
Sorry, Mike Kozenko is NOT on the list....no surprise there! If Mike doesn't make it on his score, he can count on being a patrolman for a loooooooooooooong time. I don't see any boss putting their rep behind the stupid man. Whatever clout he used to get into Narcotics years ago has likely dried up after he got dumped out of there. It was a good thing he wasn't in SOS when the scandal hit. Mike should thank his lucky stars.
I WAS PASSED OVER AGAIN! BUT THEN AGAIN MORE CLOUT KIDS I WILL NOT LISTEN TO AS THEY ARE SO SMART BUT I WILL KEEP CALLING THEM ON MY JOBS FOR HELP! GREAT YOU WENT TO COLLEGE AND GOT THIS SHIT PROMOTION, BUT SOME SUCKED IT AND GOT IT, OTHERS ARE DADDIES KIDS! FOR ANYONE THAT MADE IT ON THEIR OWN GOOD LUCK EVERYONE ELSE GET FUCKED!
Hey V.V., are you going to stop bragging about how your political connections outside of the Department promised you a merit spot now? You'd be a perfect example for the Shakman watchdog's to look at. The Outfit is alive and well in the City of Chicago and the Feds can't even stop a braggart from getting promoted.
I THINK CMDR KEATING FROM THE 1ST DIST WILL BE OUR NEW 1ST DEPUTY.
Where have you been? He hasn't been Commander of the First District for a long time. He is the Deputy of Central Control Group. Kevin Ryan is Commander of 001. So much for you knowing what is going on LOL!!!
TO: 50 Sgts yup...ALL from the det units..... Ummmmmmmmmm Cline's last hooooorah??
SOooooooooo Obvious Philly boy, SO obvious!!!!!!!!!!
Not only are u an asshat, you are an idiot...Detectives were promoted, but there was also the detective division familarization training....Stay where you are, we'll be better off....
Congrats to A. Oseguera and W. Chudzik from Area One. You guys area great. Take care of the worker bees and put the screws to the dogs. Any PO who works for you guys will be in good hands.
Congrats!!!! Vincent V-650 Class Act, almost 20yrs law enforcement exp, hard working. legit Det off list and now legit Sgt. off list. Not everyone from Det. Div is merit, you bunch of cry babies. Sam-Unit 028
You are as sofffffffffft as they come idiot. there are only (8) from the Detective Division, the rest were in Detective Training. GOD I hope you re not high on any list.
"Take care of the worker bees and put the screws to the dogs"
Yeah good philosophy to have, Can't wait to have you as a boss stonejag.If you are, heaven help those having the misfortune of having to work for an Asshat like YOU!!

It is the pension that is all you have to look forward to. I am already retired and getting mine. If I were fairly new on the job, I would definitely be much more concerned about the Pension than who makes what rank. So, if some clout person makes meritorious everything up to Deputy Chief in 20 years and has a huge pension coming, what good is 75% of 160,000 when there is no money. The ones who are really going to take a bath are the young exempts, put all that money in and looking for a fat pension and their is no money.
Sorry... Vincent V-650 was not off the list for sgt but was when he made dick. Not a bad guy but lets hope his head does not swell... after all he is a supercop!

Vinnie was merit from his uncle the State Congressman via City Hall. 8 years CPD and merit first class. And you fools thought this job was turning legit.
Sean Rellinger is the nitwit that went into business with Mike "The wife beater" Kozneko and got the shaft from Kozenko....He threatned to beat the Sgt's ass. Rellinger is good guy but soft for hooking up with that psycho...I pray they launch Kozenko...he's a real jagoff

And what is so wrong with that philosophy? Unless, of course, you're a dog.
Sean Rellinger is the nitwit that went into business with Robert Prasek. Not any copper. Rellinger refuses to pay the contractor, while he lives in a $800,000.00 house. His attorney and LIEUTENANT fired Rellinger.

Perhaps you didn't do well on the test because you don't know how to write. Or perhaps it is because you call a sergeant to all your jobs. Do you do that just to be an ass or because you don't know what you are doing? Trying not being so bitter and oh, yeah, maybe study next time?

Are you worried because you are one of the dogs? I thought the statement was excellent. More bosses need to acknowledge those that work and take care of them. Let the dogs rot as far as I am concerned. But it is always the dogs who are whining and asking for things. Remember - it isn't all about YOU!!!!!
07/28/2007..5:09pm....who the fuck are you to say anything about me...you are some spineless motherfucker who does not have the balls to say it to someones face but will post shit anonymously on some blog. ill make a deal with you..you tell me your name and i will come to you and have a face to face discussion until then go fuck your self. say what you want but at least i used my name...will you?.......ed poppish
A. Oseguera? A SGT? OH NO!! HE IS AS SMART AS A BOX OF ROCKS. LAPA AT WORK AGAIN!!!!! TIMOTHY Weiglein is the most arrogant roid head on cpd. he cant say hi to you unless you take a needle in the ass and walk around xport all day. please i hope i dont work for them!!!!

Of course you'd think it was excellent because you're the embodiment of a walking Dick w/Ears Coward Bully. But Nice try Peckerwood, I could run circles around YOU w/o even trying. It's that Stone assjag attitude of YOURS that makes this Department a joy to come work for each day.
That's two (2) merit promotions for W. Chudzik in a year, must be nice to have clout!
7/28/2007 11:01:00 AM You stupid mother fucker Walt made Sgt off the list, and even if he did make it on merit (to earn) at least he earned it. He was under twenty on the list and is for the police, now I could start naming names that I know for a fact have made it without even taking the second half of the test. Walter Chudzik is not one of them. Smear someone else. The thing I can not believe is a unit where corruption or at least allegations of corruption are running rampant they still get a merit pick. That is a joke, good luck Walter I would work for you anytime. John Graham
The funny thing is people complain about the promotion process but look at 011th district where an entire tact team got promoted. Including the head states attorneys kid.

Don't have a clue what you are trying to say. If you are such a great worker why would you be concerned if a new Sgt. took care of the workers? Try talking without name calling and maybe we can understand what it is you are really trying to say! Bet you have a college degree and are part of Generation X. You ignorance gives it away!
Tim Weiglein is a good guy. I know him and worked with his mom in 018 many years ago. He comes from a good family of Police, and they are decent folks. Tim works out, takes care of himself, and it shows. Don't be a hater, go to a gym and work out your own issues. Don't be a hater!
Anyone that knows Weiglein, knows that he is not arrogant, and that he is a worker. You don't want to work for him because you are probably a fat piece garbage that lost your will to work a long time ago. Tim is top notch, and a great guy. Congrats Tim. For all you haters, don't hate Tim because he works out, hate yourself because you cannot pass the power test, and you look a sausage when you put on your uniform.
Oseguera is not a dog. Obviously you don't know him cause he only had one partner not partners his whole career idiot. As for LAPA he isn't a member but you probably think every Hispanic on the list is. I know that he is #2 on the list and is more educated than most of the people on the job. The reason you don't want to work for him or Tim is because they'll actually make your dog ass work instead of having other workers do your job.
hmmm. the only guy making it from 153 was the same one badmouthing the bosses as recent as 2years ago. and these are the same bosses that put him in for sgt. look at yourself in the mirror you ass-kissing hypocritical fat fuck!
Hey to all the cry baby's. You don't like it, go find another job where you make this kind of money. You won't go to the private sector because you are not qualified, and if you were, you would be there alredy. We all know that 15% of the coppers do 90% of all the police work. The rest write parking tickets to old ladies to stay on days in 018-016 0r 001. Stop crying about the tact team in 011 that were all promoted, (not true) or the fluzey who scored number 1 on the test. She may be an idiot, but she scored on number 1 on the test, and was not made. Stop being tuff guy bloggers, I'll meet you anywhere anytime, and go bid to 010, 011, 007 and go talk tuff out on the 3rd watch, and stop crying.
hmmm. the only guy making it from 153 was the same one badmouthing the bosses as recent as 2years ago. and these are the same bosses that put him in for sgt. look at yourself in the mirror you ass-kissing hypocritical fat fuck!

My chinaman hasn't said anything.
short on patrol and still losing men.
the list was pretty much already out. 3/4's of those people went into the pre-sgt's detective training 3 periods ago. Congrats to all those who scored well and made it on their own...
More new Lambs for Dana Starks to Smash and Bash. Good Luck new supervisors.
Also a congratulations to the two PO's in 021 who let a prisoner close the bathroom door in Michael Reese Hospital only for him to get caught trying to escape in the ventilation system.
A bang up job there.
Who ranked #1??
My Guess:
Qualified: 10%
Under desk qualified: 20%
Given to politicians qualified 15%
Spread my legs and mouth: 15%
Unqualified: 75%
I know it does not add to 100% but this is city public skool math!
What about the Sgt's to be that have been living the Good Life in the Areas all Summer? Big Hugz&Kisses for them as well?
Get Real...

Forget promotions, what about my pension? Nice to see the midget Mayor has let the funding drop to below half of the obligation. Only the CFD has it worse than us.
City's pension funds growing weaker

AND DA MARE NEEDS HIS GUY RUNNING THINGS.........
CPD intelligence gathering is deemed to be in compliance with Federal guidelines today. Isn't CPD Intelligence a paradox?
At least from the upper,upper echelon level.
I heard Mike Kozenko was promoted?? This can't be true...is it?? Where is he these days?

OFF TOPIC-------------------------
The Dubuque County prosecutor has a pdf file that you can download that has more info on the Mette case.
http://www.dubuquecounty.org/offices/countyattorney/index.html
according to crains chicago buisness the chicago police pension fund is now funded at a whopping 49% we are in alot of trouble here. Donahue and the boys have sold us down the river he keeps letting the city skip payments. Retire now if you can and lock in your pension because 401k's are coming and the young guys are going to get raped with no lube.
It's the same list from the pre service Det. training, so it's nothing new.
Letters to the editor
Unfair punishment for Mette
From Terry Hay 105 E. Henry, Mount Pleasant, Iowa
Timothy Gallagher prosecuted Michael Mette and won the case before Judge Monica Ackley. I gather from stories in print that the judge acknowledged the fact that the young cop was followed when he tried to leave to avoid a confrontation. The judge also acknowledged that Mette was pushed and shoved "two or three times" by Jake Gothard, the victim. I also gather that Mette punched Gothard and received five years in prison.
Unless newspaper reporters are submitting slanted articles or editors are omitting key facts, it would seem that Gothard should be the one convicted of criminal behavior. Articles I've read indicate the judge and prosecutor believe Mette should have ignored the assault on his person and possibly taken a beating.
Is this sloppy journalism, or is justice on vacation

Will they have to promote one more to fill Sgt. Shorty Bighead's spot?
Dont know them all but two people on the list should make every patrolman nervous.. Here are their initials and the units they came from. F. V.(024)
M. L.(640)
God Help Us!!!!
Only I can approve promotions
I have not seen the list. I will however tell you that one of the merits were bragging that they (he) didn't even bother to take the second part of the test. what a Jagoff... I hope you get 10 guys just like you...
The city is not holding up their pension obligations because they want to sell us the idea of going to a 401k type plan. Do not agree to this. Our union should be in Springfield or suing the city at the federal level to ensure they are keeping their pension obligations. And for gods sake, vote no on the olmypics. A financial fiasco.
If you don't start inquiring about your pension now...........don't say a damn thing later when the politicans screw you and yours for the rest of your life. While we're bickering about who might be the next Super. New Lts. or SGTs. our future is becoming more and more endangered and WE AREN'T RAISING ANY HELL ABOUT IT!!!! Maybe it will serve us right when our turn comes to retire, the money might not be there for US or OUR families.
630 – Detective Daniel, Heather.. is Capt. M.B. her clout????
Sgt Fat head is Sgt majic from 008 on midnights...go back to tact were you belong no one here likes you bigmouth fathead jagoff
HELLO!!! GET IN THE DEFERRED COMP, OPEN AN IRA...DON'T DEPEND ON THE PENSION...IT WILL NOT BE THERE!!!

Are you that much out of the loop? Most of them are from districts all but the detectives were detailed to the area for 90 days of investigative familiarity training. Where have you been?
The reason it says they are detailed to the detective division is because they were for 90 days for the training. Get your head out of your buttocks!
Also a congratulations to the two PO's in 021 who let a prisoner close the bathroom door in Michael Reese Hospital only for him to get caught trying to escape in the ventilation system.

According to other posters on this blog, the posted budget by the city council has budgeted 300 spots.
Yes, that is less than what has been previously allocated.

I would love to see the probability of someone scoring 2 on the Det test and 1 on the Sgt test....reason being M.L. from 640 did just this. One might say, she's a good test taker, the counter argument would be you can be a good test taker but how in the hell do you not know how to complete a case report or an arrest report. Ask her academy friends and recent co-workers, before she made Det. She is such a blithering idiot that they don't let he work any case by herself in the D unit and she works the desk more times than not! Something here is amiss. Someone should look into this.
Heather Daniel???? Has this person ever done one day's worth of police work??? Gee, thank you Capt. M.B. I guess all that "desk" work really paid off!

As the Deputy Director at the City Clerk's office, I wanted to update you on the status of the efforts to broadcast the City Council meetings.
The cameras are being installed as I write this. A test run is scheduled for one of the September City Council meetings. As long as everything goes as planned, we hope to broadcast the meetings starting in October. As you know, unforeseen circumstances can occur, so I cannot guarantee these dates but progress is being made.
In addition thanks to the City Clerk del Valle’s efforts, for the first time key ordinances and divided roll call votes are now being posted to our website. Please follow this link to see the most recent divided roll call vote; http://www.chicityclerk.com/citycouncil/rollcall/index.html.
The City Clerk will continue to make every effort to provide additional information to the public.

You are an idiot. How many times do we have to explain that the detective unit next to someone's name is where they did their 90 day detective's detail.
Most are from districts. Good thing you're not a det.
Sorry, Mike Kozenko is NOT on the list....no surprise there! If Mike doesn't make it on his score, he can count on being a patrolman for a loooooooooooooong time. I don't see any boss putting their rep behind the stupid man. Whatever clout he used to get into Narcotics years ago has likely dried up after he got dumped out of there. It was a good thing he wasn't in SOS when the scandal hit.
Mike should thank his lucky stars.
I WAS PASSED OVER AGAIN! BUT THEN AGAIN MORE CLOUT KIDS I WILL NOT LISTEN TO AS THEY ARE SO SMART BUT I WILL KEEP CALLING THEM ON MY JOBS FOR HELP! GREAT YOU WENT TO COLLEGE AND GOT THIS SHIT PROMOTION, BUT SOME SUCKED IT AND GOT IT, OTHERS ARE DADDIES KIDS! FOR ANYONE THAT MADE IT ON THEIR OWN GOOD LUCK EVERYONE ELSE GET FUCKED!
Hey V.V., are you going to stop bragging about how your political connections outside of the Department promised you a merit spot now? You'd be a perfect example for the Shakman watchdog's to look at. The Outfit is alive and well in the City of Chicago and the Feds can't even stop a braggart from getting promoted.
I THINK CMDR KEATING FROM THE 1ST DIST WILL BE OUR NEW 1ST DEPUTY.
Where have you been? He hasn't been Commander of the First District for a long time. He is the Deputy of Central Control Group. Kevin Ryan is Commander of 001. So much for you knowing what is going on LOL!!!

So Which is it???
It is the pension that is all you have to look forward to. I am already retired and getting mine. If I were fairly new on the job, I would definitely be much more concerned about the Pension than who makes what rank. So, if some clout person makes meritorious everything up to Deputy Chief in 20 years and has a huge pension coming, what good is 75% of 160,000 when there is no money. The ones who are really going to take a bath are the young exempts, put all that money in and looking for a fat pension and their is no money.
Sorry... Vincent V-650 was not off the list for sgt but was when he made dick. Not a bad guy but lets hope his head does not swell... after all he is a supercop!
D Mc from 153.... what a pooch...

Sean Rellinger is the nitwit that went into business with Robert Prasek. Not any copper. Rellinger refuses to pay the contractor, while he lives in a $800,000.00 house. His attorney and LIEUTENANT fired Rellinger.

Did Pehlke make the list? She has a real estate issue with the federal government. But someone said she's on the list.

Funny you say that. M.L. was at the area 3 gun team before making det. which is run out the area 3 deputy chief office, the same office a now Lt C.K that runs the marine/helicopter unit and at that time another Sgt both scored in the top 5 on the Lt's test. can you say SHAKMAN DECREE.

Perhaps you didn't do well on the test because you don't know how to write. Or perhaps it is because you call a sergeant to all your jobs. Do you do that just to be an ass or because you don't know what you are doing? Trying not being so bitter and oh, yeah, maybe study next time?

Are you worried because you are one of the dogs? I thought the statement was excellent. More bosses need to acknowledge those that work and take care of them. Let the dogs rot as far as I am concerned. But it is always the dogs who are whining and asking for things. Remember - it isn't all about YOU!!!!!

You stupid mother fucker Walt made Sgt off the list, and even if he did make it on merit (to earn) at least he earned it. He was under twenty on the list and is for the police, now I could start naming names that I know for a fact have made it without even taking the second half of the test. Walter Chudzik is not one of them. Smear someone else. The thing I can not believe is a unit where corruption or at least allegations of corruption are running rampant they still get a merit pick. That is a joke, good luck Walter I would work for you anytime.
John Graham
The funny thing is people complain about the promotion process but look at 011th district where an entire tact team got promoted. Including the head states attorneys kid.

Don't have a clue what you are trying to say. If you are such a great worker why would you be concerned if a new Sgt. took care of the workers? Try talking without name calling and maybe we can understand what it is you are really trying to say! Bet you have a college degree and are part of Generation X. You ignorance gives it away!
Tim Weiglein is a good guy. I know him and worked with his mom in 018 many years ago. He comes from a good family of Police, and they are decent folks. Tim works out, takes care of himself, and it shows. Don't be a hater, go to a gym and work out your own issues.

about 25 sgt's will be promoted to lt from the old list in october
adam z you 'll make it
Anyone that knows Weiglein, knows that he is not arrogant, and that he is a worker. You don't want to work for him because you are probably a fat piece garbage that lost your will to work a long time ago. Tim is top notch, and a great guy. Congrats Tim. For all you haters, don't hate Tim because he works out, hate yourself because you cannot pass the power test, and you look a sausage when you put on your uniform.

Thanks for the update Mark!
Oseguera is not a dog. Obviously you don't know him cause he only had one partner not partners his whole career idiot. As for LAPA he isn't a member but you probably think every Hispanic on the list is. I know that he is #2 on the list and is more educated than most of the people on the job. The reason you don't want to work for him or Tim is because they'll actually make your dog ass work instead of having other workers do your job.
mARLENE IS DUMB AS THEY COME!! ASK anyone NOT TRYING TO GET INTO HER PANTS.
She will get her spot by teasing and pleaseing if she must.
she wont be able to do midnights cause she is a single mom WAAAA WAAAAAAA
take less pay then.. or stay on theA/3 gun team and work 3 hours a day
Good luck to Albert Oseguera. One of the finest Officers/Detectives I have ever met. Stay motivated, safe, and God bless.
hmmm. the only guy making it from 153 was the same one badmouthing the bosses as recent as 2years ago. and these are the same bosses that put him in for sgt. look at yourself in the mirror you ass-kissing hypocritical fat fuck!
Hey to all the cry baby's. You don't like it, go find another job where you make this kind of money. You won't go to the private sector because you are not qualified, and if you were, you would be there alredy. We all know that 15% of the coppers do 90% of all the police work. The rest write parking tickets to old ladies to stay on days in 018-016 0r 001. Stop crying about the tact team in 011 that were all promoted, (not true) or the fluzey who scored number 1 on the test. She may be an idiot, but she scored on number 1 on the test, and was not made.
Stop being tuff guy bloggers, I'll meet you anywhere anytime, and go bid to 010, 011, 007 and go talk tuff out on the 3rd watch, and stop crying.
