Swiping Here?
Latest rumor.
Everyone will be swiping in and out starting 01 February. This is from Personnel and not J-Fed.
A few points:
Everyone will be swiping in and out starting 01 February. This is from Personnel and not J-Fed.
A few points:
- As we understand it, Kronos stopped servicing city machines months ago. Who is running these machines? Who is maintaining them? Where is the print out going? Who verifies?
- Swiping out is when? Top of the hour? Quarter after the hour? Or 22.5 minutes after the hour? If it's 22.5 minutes, then maybe the FOP ought to re-open that half hour paid lunch lawsuit that got turned down years ago. With documentation that you're being kept for the half hour AND recent court decisions saying that the time you spend getting dressed for work should be PAID time, labor law is definitely on our side now.
- If you swipe out 7.5 minutes after any quarter hour, you are entitled to the entire 15 minutes paid according to the contract. If the W/C won't be signing slips for 15 minutes, where do we get the physical verification for grievances?
And the most important question - Who has to swipe? Because if it isn't everyone and it isn't city wide, someone is going to raise holy hell at some point. Tact? TRU? Hour at the end for doing a really good job? Court tomorrow? Late lunch? "Hey boss, if I get you 10 hazards, do you think...?" What about HQ casual days...casual as in no one really looks at the clock as long as you beat the boss in?
Does anyone have any idea how much quid pro quo is about to go out the window?

Why don't we wait till Jody starts making the DECISIONS. He's the man ($300K +). He was brought in for NEW leadership.
We need one Chief and other Indians to follow.
The problem is that everyone wants to be Chief.
LET THE MAN DO HIS JOB! and stop trying to be superintendant!
I haven't swiped in months. I still get paid.
“People want a job. They don’t want a handout. They don’t want welfare and they don’t want a handout of $500. It doesn’t answer anything. So you take the $500. So you spend it within two weeks. Then what happens after that?” Daley said.
Dicky, Dicky, Dicky.... The people that would be getting $500 are single claiming zero. Holy shit Batman, that means they actually got a fucking JOB you shanty(sp) Irish PRICK ya! It's my money that I put in, hence REBATE. If you weren't so crooked you'd be comical. Resume all normal duties as I am outta her.... BTW I'd settle for the $300 for not paying taxes, the dummycrat provision.
I wish JODY WEIS would be like Bill Parcels. Clean House and get rid of the dead wood.
The more he gets rid of, the better off we are.
This is going to be fun to watch Tact and the Caps people work a full eight!!!!!!!!!!!
i will believe it when I see it. Only one machine for the five hundred plus employees at area 2 located right behind the desk.
now is the time for the job action, no movers, no nothing. How about a blue flu welcome for the new supe, let the merits and pretty people from 35th street work. they cant fire every one.
Every time a member gets overtime they are entitled to time and a half per the contract in either money or time. Take the MONEY! Send the Company a message!!!
The swiping rumors have been around for years. You know it and so do I. I will believe it when I see it.
just a little info..at the oemc
if we swipe out earlier than 7 min before the hour..we get docked 15 min
when i see it on paper in black and white, then i'll believe it. if it's true then it has to apply to everyone. everyone also means everythefuckbody. no exceptions. fop needs to address this if it happens cause i forsee myself making at least 15-30 minutes overtime each day yippy!
The Wire is the best damn T.V. show ever produced. Every aspect of its portrayal of Baltimore over past 5 seasons has mirrored Chicago. Unions, politicians, schools "A-moral" gang culture. And oh yeah new police cars not budgeted and the fleet of crown-Vic’s are on their last leg. Too bad this is its last season.
I haven't swiped for months now, and don't plan on doing it.
"Sorry Boss, my card doesn't seem to work."
Kronos who owned the machines and software, has been out of business for 5 years. No one has been servicing the machines. The City has many spares that they have removed from numerous locations. If a machine goes down they just replace it.
If you remember there were several installed at each location, one near the desk and another in the roll call room. They had machines in the areas and the courts all have been removed, there were countless numbers of machines at 11th & State all were removed and saved.
Take a look at the building on Pershing countless number of them left behind from the CPS.
No shortage of machines, thequestion is when will the Dept run out of the ID badges that the machines read.
But thats not a problen either, The City will just hand out a big fat contract to one of their frends and have new systen installed.
Mo' money, mo' money, mo' money!
IVE DONE SOME RESEARCH ON THE KRONOS.
F1 IS THE OVER-RIDE TO SWIPE WITHOU A CARD YOU MUST USE YOUR SOCIAL SECURITY
F3 MEANS YOUR OUT IN THE FIELD. I GUESS YOU WOULD USE THAT IF YOU WERE IN TRAINING OUT OF THE DISTRICT.
THE MACHINES CAN BE CARRIED TO VARIOUS SITE LIKE A DETAIL ALL THE NEED IS A POWER SOURCE.
MOST CITY WORKER SWIPE OUT AT LOCATION CLOSE TO THERE HOMES. IT DOES SHOW THE LOCATION THOU. TIMEKEEPER ARE THE ONLY ONES THAT MESS WITH THEM.
COMMON CITY PRACTICE IS IF YOU DONT SWIPE OUT THE DOCK YOU AND TO FIX THE PROBLEM THEY PAY YOU ON THE NEXT CHECK.
I WONDER WHAT ALL THOSE HOMICIDE DICKS THINK ABOUT THIS. THATS ONE OF THE FEW CARROTS THEY HAVE.
TACT AND GANG SHOULD LOSE QUITE A FEW PEOPLE TOO.
THOSE GOLD STARS KNOW DAMN WELL THEY DONT WORK 8 HOURS. SHOW UP IN THE MIDDLE OF SHIFT AND DUCK 3 HOURS LATER,THEN THEY POP IN ON THE NEXT WATCH ACTING LIKE THEY WORK 12-16 HOURS A DAY.
I FIGURE PATROL IS GOIN TO GET IT IN THE DIRT SHOOT AGAIN.
This swiping stuff maybe true. They have placed a gold plated milk crate under the swipe machine that Maria Maher would have to swipe in and out at. Word is this would allow her to reach the swiper!
A T0-FROM was also sent to R&D asking about the possiblity of floor swipers, not only for the height challenged officers but also for Lt. Richie Scotchbreath to use as he crawls into work.
I am sure exempt members, members of elite specialized units and officers who drive the bosses around will be exempt from this policy! Hard to explain 3 hour tours unless your are Skippy and Gilligan!
Isn't it nice that the illegal aliens and the welfare crowd will get a nice big tax rebate check but many of us coppers won't because we made too much money!
So we get penalize for being a working productive citizen as the rock whore gets her check!

Anybody know where I have to go to collect my winnings?
getting paid to change clothes wont fly
Paid lunches may unless we are alllowed to not answer the radio and ignore citizens requests
I saw a city crew intsalling a swiper in at T.R.'s Pub on 111th Street, hmmmmmmmmmm... wonder who will use that one? anybody now?
I CALL BULLSHIT ON THIS ONE! Friendly wagers will be accepted.
As my old man use to say, for any system in place there is a system to get around it. But then again he is serving a 40 year stint in a federally protected cell.
Will they be putting one of those digital swipers in at the ALOHA HOTEL on South Cicero Ave so a certain exempt member and his p.o. girlfriend can swipe from the hot tub room? If they do, please put the swiper out of reach from the hot tub so they aren't electrocuted while swiping from the hot tub. That wouldn't be pretty and it would make bad press too.
I'll never forget the time that Supt. Phil Cline swiped his jelly bismark through the machine after a rough night of drinking.
If they could mold the machines to look like J-Lo's bootie, every guy on this job would be lined up to swipe as many times as possible each day.
Cool, I am all for swiping in and out. This way everyone will have to actually work eight and a half hours like we are supposed to.
let em have us be a robat dept, and watch the product get worse, fuck, make the application like a starbucks for CPD.
Will this include exempt rank?
I find this rumor hard to believe because the liabilty would be greater than any savings. Under both Fderal and State labor laws, all documented overtime even in small portions would have to be paid. A P.O. swiping out 8 minutes over each day would get about 65 hours a year in overtime.
I now a few bosses that swipe it in and out everyday at work! Just hope their wives don't find out!
I heard they are going to put these machines in at all the free restaurants so TRU can swipe in and out in groups of 20.
A police who was on his last day of employment prior to his justly due retirement was called down to do a urine test.
After urinating in the plastic specimen jar he secretly dropped an olive into the jar of urine. He handed the jar to the medical section personnel and said, Just so you know today is my last day before retiring and I had a lot to drink last night in celebrating it.
I guess few will be paid on the Retirement/Christmas party day.
I heard TRU will be issuing ANOVs to any cop who doesn't comply.
Sounds like the city may be doing this so they have an additional bargaining chip in the contract negotiation.
Expect a few more changes too. They will use as many bargaining chips as possible to try to screw us!
If you only swipe in once a day, you will be recorded as working 24 hr. shifts. Damn that OT check is looking better!
Swiping is the dumbest idea yet.
A lot of guys go out and bring in good activity on a nightly basis because maybe their boss gives em an hour on the end here and there.
No fringe benefits, why work? I'll do my eight and the bare minimum.
I was so tired from working a long day and much overtime that when I got home my gal was laying on her stomach naked on the bed and I swiped her ass with my card. The thing that pissed me off is she said, your the 5th copper to do that to me today! I got to stop working so much overtime.
Why isn't the FOP questioning the CPD's contractual ability to issue such a General Order? Wouldn't such a requirement have to be covered by our contract. Such as pay being affected, disciplinary procedures and so on?
J-Fed accidentally swiped his FBI ID card and the machine read, ALERT ALERT ALERT FBI HERE SHRED SHRED SHRED
As we understand it, Kronos stopped servicing city machines months ago. Who is running these machines? Who is maintaining them?
The city of chicago bureau of electricity telephone department installs and maintains the old and new replacement units
Just wait until you get the new swipe clocks with the hand print. It will or will NOT let you swipe in or out depending on where you are allowed to swipe.
Parameters can be set so employees are only allowed to swipe at certain clocks at their "home " location. No more swiping near the house unless you are set that way
WHAT ABOUT THE HIGH & MIGHTY EXEMPT?!
WOW~what will KK at O'Hare Airport do now? How can she justify all her overtime when she's not there?!
Everyone has to swipe, everyone, so calm down boys and girls.
YES!
I am looking to get paid without the W.C. approval!
If it is on the books and open to discovery then we a winner!
$$$$$$
Not to mention this will NOT make more anymore productive!

Hey moron, know and read your G.O's. When on lunch and officer is not required to listen to teh radio and OEMC can not, I repeat can not give a job to anyone on a lunch. A personel is a different thing, you must monitor the radio.
JUST FIND A WIRE AND SLICE IT,,,IT WILL TAKE MONTHS FOR THE CITY TO FIX THESE THINGS. BUNCH OF RETARDED F**KS THEY ARE.
P.S. MONKEYS

which is fine but now...LETS MAKE SOME MUFUKIN' MOOOOOOOOONEY!!!!!!!
I AM PERSONALLY GONNA BANKRUPT THE CITY!

Oh yeah...'bout that, I was meaning to apologize earlier.
paid to get dressed for work? what kinda of bs is that? just go to work, quit whining. you soud pathetic. get out in the real word and find out how tough it is to earn a living.
anybody that thinks they can't fire everybody should go talk to an air traffic controller.
i have not swiped in 6 months.
i don't think the macine works.
i find it amusing watching people swipe in each day......might as well swipe it in an elephants ass crack.
A P.O. swiping out 8 minutes over each day would get about 65 hours a year in overtime.
1/30/2008 02:37:00 AM

and who's gonna be there to make you swipe once you check off? 'I left something in the car, boss'... 'Sorry.. just finishing up this case report, boss.' 'forgot to do a traffic study sticker on this ticket... oops.. fucked it up, gotta do it over, boss..'
hey, I can do this all night and no more, 'I dont give a fuck if we were in a wrap last night and you didnt get a lunch, Im not signing a slip for lunch' from the bosses.
Everyone line up at the machine at 0800 or whatever time you start, than take your time walking to the roll call room.....Try and gig me for being late....Boss, I swiped in at 0800 check the machine!
Remember boys and girls, favors are a two way street. The city just got rid of the bosses doing us a favor, so DON'T DO THEM ANY....
A T0-FROM was also sent to R&D asking about the possiblity of floor swipers, not only for the height challenged officers but also for Lt. Richie Scotchbreath to use as he crawls into work.

Until i sees it in writin' i ain't gonna believes...that swipin' shit wouldn't fly in arkansas...
What....!!!
How can this be...?
Do you mean that I am now REQUIRED to really be AT work..?
Who came up with this without me, my guy Terry, or our boy Lil' Todd knowing about it?
I smell some bullshit going on here!
How will I ever be able to drive around from my shoe shine and pants pressing spots to visit the ladys and chat's with them...
This sucks!
Peace Out -

Lotsa stuff gets swiped at CPD.
This obviously was a bait topic, but we shall go along with it. Yes, please make us swipe in and out. The city will definately not loose money on us swiping in and out :)
Finally those infamous "I will take care of you guys tommorow" on a late pinch will be worth the headache. Thanks$$$$$$$$$
-Future Supt.
i haven swiped since 01 jan 06 and i still have a job...
I work tact.. if you want to cal it that lately. I cant wait to swipe! I am on time every day by 20 minutes. I saty 10 15 minutes late about three times a week if we are on days, not getting a slip. The perc's are gone bring the money!
SERISER WILL ONLY SWIPE ONCE, MY GOOD FRIEND MIKE IS ALWAYS ARRESTING PEOPLE AND WORKING OVERTIME. ONCE SEISER SWIPES SEISER WILL RUN IT. ALSO REMEMBER
JOHN MCCLAIN FOR PRESIDENT RUDY GUILIANI FOR VICE PRSEIDENT AND SEISER FOR MAYOR OF NEW YORK CITY.
Isn't it nice that the illegal aliens and the welfare crowd will get a nice big tax rebate check but many of us coppers won't because we made too much money!
So we get penalize for being a working productive citizen as the rock whore gets her check!
Shut your pie hole, Moron the citizens that file a income tax form receive the rebate. which means you had to have an income. Now go back to first grade learn how to read. What I don't understand is dummy's like you with a soooo called collage education yet are unable to write a case report. Sickening
I have seen the order. It will begin 01 feb. It does not have to be approved by the union because you are required to be here anyway. Overtime still needs to be approved by the WC so it will not help you there. The days of the duck are gone.
Everyone has to swipe, everyone, so calm down boys and girls.
Understand something we all know better. EVERYONE without juice. Insofar as I'm concerned I don't give a shit as I have always been the tell it like it is police( REALIST )I work 8 1/2 each day answer my calls do my best for the citizens yet bad mouth this department every chance I get.
July, 1981: Academy
1. You'll have computers in every car within a couple of years.
2. This will be a paperless dept. with 5 years.
3. Promotions will be based on your evaluations,work product and test taking ability only.
4. Everyone on the street will be issued a multi-channel hi-tech and compact radio.
5. You'll be priveleged to receive the best training in the country on a regular basis.
Swipe in and out...implemented in 1 day? They were smoking something back then and they're smoking something now.
DAMN, ITS JUST A SHAME THAT MY ID DOESNT WORK OH WELL
the whole half hour unpaid lunch is a bad joke anyway. officers have been written up for not helping a citizen during their "unpaid lunch". well which is it? If you are being unpaid, you should not be punished during that time.

The current machines already can be set with multiple locations. The computer knows exactly the time and place that you swiped. If it's not the location you are authorized for it will still except it but an edit will have to be authorized by a supervisor.
The one being installed at TR's Pub is for Lt. Ritchie and Sgt. Terry.

Any chance that you know how to sign on to a computer? Check automated directives. THE ORDER HAS BEEN THERE SINCE 1999!!!! It just never went city wide, but it DOES say that it eventually will. Try and find out what you are talkinhg about before you post and make a fool out of yourself.
it's one thing to swipe, it's another to have the system actually drive the payroll....does anyone really believe that the existing system is capable of tracking working hours and overtime accurately, without messing things up? I for one doubt it...
I am SURE no PO will give his buddy his card to swipe him out if he has time on the end!
To all you cry baby rat bastards who always posted about others leaving early or not doing 8 for 8 every day I hope this new policy makes your job EXTRA shitty.
Not to say that this day wasn't coming but you rat bastards posting shit every day didn't help.
In a twisted way I hope all of those who cried and ratted others out get promoted to dick or put in some nice unit. That way we can tell you about the good old days that you helped fuck up.

Ok 35th whiteshirt assclown, getting down there early today huh?
Tryn to purge all that kid porn b4 J-Fed arrives??
They are currently painting the hallowed halls of the ivory tower in preparation for the chosen one.
He is coming.
Some bosses have slaughtered animals and have scrawled J.P.W in the animal's blood so he will passover their office staff when the marching orders out of the building are executed by "him."
To 5:28 post, KK at the airport will be paid by her boyfriend MS at Finance. Their live-in arrangement is quite GOLDEN, and she gets Carte Blanch on OT! If you can't take care of your girlfriend, why be a goldstar (director)?
the regular city workers have been doing this for years. i remember several years ago one guy would stay legit until quitting time and swipe everyone's card. they caught this on video and he lost his job. beware.
New policy just issued:
All CPD personnel will have a small microchip surgically implanted in their brain.
The chip will be a video and audio record of everything that occurs on and off-duty.
The doors of the station will be equipped with scanners that will record your entry and exit to and from the building. A computer voice will personnally welcome you to work.
The chip is designed such that anytime you remove your handgun from your holster an intense shock courses through your body. The belief is that if you are really in fear for your life, you will have no problem overcomming the pain.
The current chip model is slightly less than one pound. CPD Neck braces will be issued to personnel who cannot hold their head upright after the chip is installed.
if i don't swipe will i not get paid?
i got a tea bag waiting for you cpd brass. douche bags.
Pour glue in the Kronos swipers. If they can't be fixed because there are no vendors to fix them, then lets make them inoperable.
The order came out today and it looks like I could start saving for that new car. Overtime is going to skyrocket...they they just shot themselves in the foot. This circus gets funnier every day.
By the way, I m sure you can pick up a nice Carhart from the guys that will be leaving tact.
I was so tired from working a long day and much overtime that when I got home my gal was laying on her stomach naked on the bed and I swiped her ass with my card. The thing that pissed me off is she said, your the 5th copper to do that to me today! I got to stop working so much overtime.
Thank god she told me I was the second person to do that and the biggest.
The swiping rumors have been around for years. You know it and so do I. I will believe it when I see it.
***Some units have already been told they have to swipe in & out. I hope someone has contacted the Union for their input on the matter. Is it 8 hours or 8 1/2 hours? There are going to be yellow slips flying for those who stay 5 minutes after their time. Bosses are gonna shit when they get piled on their desks. I think this will bite them in the ass at some point.
"Sorry Boss, my card doesn't seem to work."
*** They have a form you have to fill out if you don't swipe for the day. You'll be expected to go get a new ID card that does work. Nice try.
fyi , you are not required to listen or answer radio during lunch. this is the result of the lawsuit. dont give city service while at lunch.
Off Topic but saw this posted on another blog:
National and Local Law Enforcement might want to prepare for the following senario.
What if the 2007 US Presidential general elections come down to Obama as the Democratic candidate and any one of the white males as the Republican candidate.
If the 2007 US Presidential General Elections ends up as close as some of the recent past Presidential elections and litigation by the US Supreme Court has to decided the winner... one has to wonder what will happen if the white male Republican is lawfully awarded as the winner.
If there is a perception by the Democrats as well as the African American community that the first African American person that should of been elected US President, had the office "Stolen" from him, there will be civil unrest and rioting in this Country unlie we ever seen before. The Watts Riots, the Rodney King Riots as well as the 1968 Martin Luther King Assassination Riots will pale in comparison.
I really hope that at least the Federal Government is taking this possible senario under consideration. God forbid this take place with no plan of action in place or without any pre-thought involved, this Country as well as each of us will be in grave danger.
Are you kiddin' me? Like this is new? The upper echelon and politicians in this department and city have been swiping their paychecks, and everything else that wasn't nailed down for years!
Keep your windows closed. It prevents the quid pro quo from flying out.
Read John Kass today,( Wednesday) too funny truth be told. The insider who claims to be an outsider. Mayor Daley's boy Obama.
Sorry Boss, my card doesn't seem to work."
**************************
Go get a new card. good bye..
2 more days bitches be ready
I saw the order which is dated 31 jan, starting 1 feb swiping in and out will be mandatory.. if your card doesn't work there will be a 24hr number to call immediately. this will not effect overtime because it is not to be used for payroll purposes. the dep sup has the authority to make people exempt from swiping according to the order. there was a copy in 2 and 21, if you don't believe it call those districts....
so the rumors are true, but we will see what actually happens. of course it won't affect those of us in patrol because we are there 8 for 8 anyway....
So lets say your at Bridgeview, Markham or Skokie Court during your tour, then what? Or Detailed to an outdoor event?
Retirees will have to swipe once a month to prove they are still alive!
we better clear up that back log!!!!!!!!! and NOOOOOOOO I will not hand off any jobs!!!! I'm rich biiiiotch!
“People want a job. They don’t want a handout. They don’t want welfare and they don’t want a handout of $500. It doesn’t answer anything. So you take the $500. So you spend it within two weeks. Then what happens after that?” Daley said. "
I got an image of Daley back at his office. He was pounding his fist on his desk telling his minions that if everyone in Chicago is getting $500 that he wants that money! Sneak in new fees, fines, new taxes and raise rates on everything. Meanwhile keep cutting employee andretiree benefits. Keep the hired trucks rolling, and those are the jobs he wants to dole out.
Stay safe, and vote Republican!

Not everyone. What will happen to first dept office? That crew has not worked 8 hr tours in years. Many scam every day. If the system includes everyone then I support it. But someone will develop angles to this system. Of course, tac and gang teams will quit. 8 hour tour is too much for them.
I remember working a real job before I became the police....You want me to swipe in and out and account for 8 hours..big deal. How about digging ditches and cleaning sewers. If you work on this job it isn't hard to make 80,000 or more and not even break a sweat. Whats wrong with swiping....its not like we have to worry about "job reductions" or plant closings. Stop your bitching
Time to envoke Federal law when it comes to getting paid!
This is right up J-fed's alley!

What is the law regarding breaks and meal periods?
An employee who is to work 7 1/2 continuous hours or more shall be provided an unpaid meal period of at least 20 minutes. The meal period must be given to an employee no later than 5 hours after beginning work. Illinois has no law regarding breaks. For more information, click here. 820 ILCS 140/3.
Remember this when the weather heats up or there are no cars available & they deny you a lunch. They have to give you the lunch NO LATER than 5 hours after you start work; if they deny it, file a complaint with the IL DOL.
Screw this Department!
What Goes around Comes round...

Good Luck Guys and Gals.
How about Daley, the Alder-Whores, and Co. leading by example....
LET THE MAN DO HIS JOB! and stop trying to be superintendant!
It's SuperintendEnt.
SWIPE IN FOR LT'S ALSO PLEASE
ESPECIALLY IN 014
SWEET, SIMPLE ARRESTS COMING AT 155AM THANK YOU PLEASE LET US SWIPE
I WISH IT WAS SWIPE!!!!
its put your hand on the plate and spread your fingers so the machine can read your print.
now add up all the people that go to the bathroom and DO NOT wash their hands, blow their nose, scratch their body parts etc. you get the message.......
its disgusting what these machine look like after just a few months of use. NOBODY cleans the plates.
city electricians install these units, dept of finance regulates them.
lt's will do sgt's time sgt's will do po's time.
another added job for the police to manage the time of everyone else. there are no more TIMEKEEPERS on the city payroll.
the current time swipe system SUCKS!!
especially the cleanliness part. i smell a lawsuit in the making soon. hopefully before i retire.

Great, now Kenny Chesney is suing the City. It seems he has to re-write his latest song "Shift Work"

A BIG OLE' PILE OF SHIIIIIIIFT WORK! LMAO!
Don't try to swipe out at the firehouse in Mt. Greenwood. The line is already too long with Water Dept Inspectors.
I remember working a real job before I became the police....You want me to swipe in and out and account for 8 hours..big deal. How about digging ditches and cleaning sewers. If you work on this job it isn't hard to make 80,000 or more and not even break a sweat. Whats wrong with swiping....its not like we have to worry about "job reductions" or plant closings. Stop your bitching
How about I can own the company that digs the ditch. company man.
How do they expect me to swipe when I'm still learning how to wipe?

A police who was on his last day of employment prior to his justly due retirement was called down to do a urine test.
After urinating in the plastic specimen jar he secretly dropped an olive into the jar of urine. He handed the jar to the medical section personnel and said, Just so you know today is my last day before retiring and I had a lot to drink last night in celebrating it.

I stopped worrying about that when I graduated the 8th grade! what about the old "you knew about this when you came on this department" argument??? Applies to everything else you haters try and counter with... where is it now??? I didnt have to swipe when I got on this job so CERTAINLY I should have the right to cry about it now, RIGHT!? So using that ideology, and now that we have that established... I CAN BITCH ABOUT RESIDENCY!!! PLEASE put to rest the "you knew about it back when" response... as we see how RETARDED it is!
waiting for a new thread, SCC so I can praise Suffredin and the other "gun grabbers"... what a stupid fucking term... waiting...

Starks was a class act. He invited the suburban chiefs up to the stage to pass out certificates. He showed everyone respect. His speech was very good. He will be missed.
The CAPS office will swipe in at Target, Mario Tricoci, Macy's, Starbucks and swipe out at that Adult Toy shop on Mannheim.
SCC. The Department Noticed on swiping faxed throughout the city appears to be a fraud.
a) There is no Dept Notice # affixed.
b) It is unsigned.
c) If it was legit, the Department Notices would have been distributed to all units by now.
d) More than likley an Administrative Fax Message would have been sent from HQ.
Our copy had a fax return number from Area 1 Detective Div.,
Someone deserves a nice pat on the back for sending the entire department into cardiac arrest. Can we all go on the "heart bill" now!
SCC,
You know I love it when you speak Latin. Rawr!!
FOP? any comment? said...
Why isn't the FOP questioning the CPD's contractual ability to issue such a General Order? Wouldn't such a requirement have to be covered by our contract. Such as pay being affected, disciplinary procedures and so on?
1/30/2008 03:00:00 AM
Rest assured that the FOP is watching the situation carefully. Any employer can require you to swipe or punch in or out. Not even FOP can stop that. FOP is watching to see what orders are issued to see if they violate federal labor laws. They will sue to enforce your rights if violated.
IT'S ALWAYS BEEN IN THE ORDER THAT YOU MAY SHUT OFF YOUR RADIO AT LUNCH.
1/30/2008 11:20:00 AM
YAH....Always....Right on short timer
Impress me with your 18months on the job.
Does Daley swipe? Or is that just silly, silly, silly, silly, silly..
Oh my...what is Sgt. D.F. from HoSq gonna do? He comes into work 5 hours late and leaves 2 hours early.
Swiping is only a tempest in a D cup.
Thats ok, i have no problem swiping. i work in a district where we cant check off until 20 after the hr anyways so i will just be sure to fill out a slip and to also be watching for the wc to be sure he isnt flying home early. i would hate to have to send pictures to IAD, because believe me, our WC's NEVER work a full tour
Yellow slips? We only need those for court and comp time use now. If they are gonna make us swipe, who needs a fricking signature? I was there, I swiped, you told me to, now pay up fuskers! As much as we get denied lunch on Zone 8, it's gonna be great!
Well now that they are getting this implemented, a sgt in the court section told me about the new system they were told they would be getting. You must log into a computer in the sign in room using your PC #. That way no one can show up late and sign in on time or sign out later than they are there.
How do they expect me to swipe when I'm still learning how to wipe?
------
Ick, so that explains the skid marks on the front seat of the squad. poooeeey
***Some units have already been told they have to swipe in & out. I hope someone has contacted the Union for their input on the matter. Is it 8 hours or 8 1/2 hours? There are going to be yellow slips flying for those who stay 5 minutes after their time. Bosses are gonna shit when they get piled on their desks. I think this will bite them in the ass at some point.
1/30/2008 01:06:00 PM
We got a union? Since when?
Mr Swipe says:
"don't tase me bro"
People clam down! Get your facts straight. The rumor is wrong.
The truth is, we have to WIPE in and out, not swipe.
..."How about digging ditches and cleaning sewers"...
What unit is that?
I'm coming to get you dirty little bastards.

Great joke but who started it? will kirby be getting her last cr numbers before she is rightfully dumped?
Not sure if anyone corrected the posters that keep writing that you can not listen to the radio, shut off the radio, or that you can't get a job at lunch.
YOU ARE WRONG. You, by order, must always monitor the radio. The only exclusion is Caps meetings and you must notify COS of it. You have to take all assignments given unless called off by a supervisor. If you get a job at lunch, you just get to take another or put in a slip.
Not sure if this was already posted, I'm not going to read 120 posts of people crying and bitching to see make sure everyone saw the actual order and how wrong they are or if someone else posted a similar comment to this.
Just like the swiping in thing, this will go away until they need it. Not tied to payroll. Just for them to check when they need it or another way for inspectors to check up on people.
Why da PO-leece be swiping stuff?
I work tact.. if you want to cal it that lately. I cant wait to swipe! I am on time every day by 20 minutes. I saty 10 15 minutes late about three times a week if we are on days, not getting a slip. The perc's are gone bring the money!

No problem officer Go to Personell and get another one
Dont damage this one or there will be a CR for inattention to duty
Boy some of you must be idiots. If you swipe out late, payroll doesn't automatically pay you overtime. Seriously, you can't really think that. You still have to fill out a slip for overtime and it still has to be approved and signed. Payroll isn't going to pay every yahoo 15 min ot if they swipe out at 7 after the hour.
They changed the rule where you can swipe out at any machine specifically because of streets and sanitation. Now, the majority of city employees have to swipe out at their "home" location.
Shows how easy you guys are. It was on the blog it must be true.

Let the OT begin. I will just show up early every day and swipe out late, no more side job. Thanks City of Chicago!
Subject: IRISH Joke
A young Irish woman in Joliet, Illinois, was so depressed that she
decided to end her life by throwing herself into the I&M canal. She went
down to the docks and was about to leap into the frigid water when a
handsome young American sailor saw her tottering on the edge of the dock, crying.
He took pity on her and said, "Look, you have so much to live for. I'm off
to Europe in the morning, and if you like, I can stow you away on my ship.
I'll take good care of you and bring you food every day." Moving closer,
he slipped his arm around her shoulders and added, "I'll keep you happy,
and you'll keep me happy ."
The girl nodded yes. After all, what did she have to lose? Perhaps a fresh
start in Europe would give her life new meaning.
That night, the sailor brought her aboard and hid her in a lifeboat.
From then on, every night he brought her three sandwiches and a piece of
fruit, and they made passionate love until dawn.
Three weeks later, during a routine inspection, she was discovered by the
captain.
"What are you doing here?" the captain asked.
"I have an arrangement with one of the sailors," she explained. "I get
food and a trip to Europe, and he's screwing me."
"He certainly is," the captain said.
"This is the Empress Casino, and we never leave Joliet."
dear "totally unreal" you made too much money because your greedy ass worked all the special employment you could get and your old lady did not want to stay at home with the snotRats so she went to work and also made a killing. Welcome to the middle class.

Yea...... He is the ep-it-tome of a good speech guy! Let me repeat that..... He is the ep-it-tome
Ture. D.N. 08-02 dated 31 jan 08 signed by Jody P. Weis takes effect immediately and continues till further notice. All department members will swipe in at the start of their tour and swipe out at the end of their tours.
Right from the order----
a. be granted one 30 minute meal period each watch and will not be subject to radio assignments or required to monitor the radio during the meal period. Such members will, whenever possible,
take their meal periods at the time prescribed by their unit watch
commander. Lunch will normally be taken within the district of
assignment. Unit commanding officers may make exceptions if
conditions warrant. In those instances, lunch may be taken within a reasonable distance in an adjoining district. Meal periods will normally be assigned between two hours after the start of the tour of duty and one and one-half hours before the end of the tour of
duty. Members who are unable to take their meal period during
their prescribed time will notify their supervisor of this fact no later than two hours before the end of the tour of duty.
8 for 8.5---.. I told a "know it all" cop to start getting late pinch's. If you want me here up to the minute, than I'll make it worth my while. I'll stay a couple hours over and build up my bank account while I'm at it. His reply was "fu** that, I'm going to the watch" I was confused, how does that make any sense? On the watch they make you stay for 8 and then they tell you to go home after 8hrs. On a team you can stay and make over time and they get their stupid numbers. It'll be like going to 10hr days and getting paid OT at the same time. Example: 2nd watch. 0800hrs to 1630hrs then 1630 to 1830. 6 days at 3 hrs a day for 4 weeks = 72hrs (that's possible, far stretch but possible) 72 X 33.97 =$2445.85 (over 1600 a month after taxes) or if you did it 3 days out of the week thats over 800 duckies a month. Mercedes payment, new mouth grill, kids tuition, whatever. All for 2 hrs extra a day or at least 3 days a week. It's easy... just take that shop lifter, piss bum, trespasser, gangster, fake charity collector, job from the watch, hand waver or whatever. I wanna see if I can match 300k a year for being the real police. Just stock up on the blank yellow slips or pink one's.

Makes me wonder if the bashing about the people at HQ is merited, I don't think their lunches are denied, weekends off, they don't get their hands dirty ect ect. It seems they have some something to offer if not brains.
Personnel doesn't have the authority to impose this oprder without review and signature of the Supt. of Police. Its BOGUS DUDES......
