This sucks if true...I need a KateyKakes comment to make me feel better :(
What do you expect from such an asshole that says there is no money for pot holes yet he's paving a street for the Olympic Committee to drive down on their next visit. He could care less about the police and should you end up being killed in the line of duty, do you think he cares?????
Seriously, we have to start hitting Daley where it hurts. With all the focus on the Olympic bid we need to have a protest where the Olympic pick committee visits next. Or instead of a no-confidence vote for Weis how about a no-confidence vote that the City will be able to provide enough safety to visiting athletes and spectators. Now THAT would get some publicity if the FOP publicly expressed that with the current level of manpower we could not adequately ensure safety for the projected crowds.
Come on, lets play hardball.
But the aldermen got their 6% cost of living increase for doing a part-time job.
Look you people have the city by the balls although sometimes I think your too stupid to realize it.
During the early 70's when we were trying to have a collective bargaining rep. we went on a ticket blitz. Everyone poo pooed the idea. By the end of the 3rd day all the bosses were inspecting your ticket books to see if the citations were being written on your beat. My point is that you have so much more power now. Go on a ticket strike, except in those areas "where courtesies are give, i.e. certain restaurants, churches, political gatherings, if you don't wake up your going to let this asshole shit all over you. Fuck him and the people he's with.
Just remember, that due to inflation, a zero percent increase is actually a pay CUT. That is, today's dollars are worth less in terms of what they can buy due to price increases.
Classic Daley, release the information late Friday or early Saturday and hope that the news gets buried over the weekend and nobody hears about it. The FOP should really think about trying to get a group together for informational picketing while the IOC is in town next month.
WHY IN HELL DOES ANYONE WRITE PARKERS & TICKETS???!!! WAKE UP DUMMIES!!!
Maybe arbitration is the only means by which to compel this den of liars, thieves and scallywags to open up their books and prove the city's 'inability to pay' isn't purely a case of 'unavailability of funds due to widespread theft by deceptions'.

The definition that best fits Richard M. Daley, CEO of the Daley Crime Family
mr. mayor. go fuck yourself!!! i bet revenue goes down even more. thanks for the support.
Retaliation for the 'no confidence' vote.
Arbitration, anyone?
Why doesn't the city just get rid of CPD all together and hire security officers? Its pretty clear the City of Chicago does not want the CPD to be proactive now days anyway. The City will generate revenue by writing tickets and totally eliminate court time these officers get when making an arrest beacuse there won't be any arrests.
The City can pay these security guards $10.00 an hour. They can also totally eliminate police vehicles and put everyone on foot to write tickets. This City and its tax payers do not like the CPD to get new vehicles anyway. The City can also push out the FOP, since their will be no police officers anyway. The City of Chicago and its citizens do not want police officers to have a salary or a raise anyway so who needs the FOP? Totally privatize!!!! THATS THE TICKET. Who cares if the gang bangers are out there and the CPD is down thousands of officers. The City can eliminate all its officers. They will save money by hiring $10.00 hour security officers who only carry pepper spray and an ink pen. Meanwhile your taxes will keep going up to pay for the security guards $1000.00 ink pens that the city only pays a quarter for. THATS THE CHICAGO WAY!!!
If this is true then all bets are off. The FOP should move to take our contract to arbitration as well as publicly criticizing the Mayor. Supposedly there was a deal in place between the Union and the City not to discuss the contract publicly, yet every chance the City has it takes a swipe at us. The public should be made aware that there are nowhere near the number of sworn officers that the City claims there are (Why doesn't the FOP publish the true number or file to obtain it under the Freedom of Information Act, the fact that the radios often don't work, the computers often don't work, that the squad cars are falling apart, that the vaunted cameras often don't work. That the reason their cars are being damaged due to potholes,that their taxes are sky high is so that the Mayor can sink all the City money into his dream of the Olympics where you can bet all his friends and relatives are just waiting to make fortunes while we get stuck with the tab. Sorry about the runon sentence, I was on a roll. The Mayor hates us an I for one surely hate him. My only hope is that he either dies while I'm alive so I can go piss on his shanty Irish grave or that he goes to prison. Thanks for letting me vent
F U Daley and Jpud!
Daley's a fool. Maybe a blue flu" epidemic should happen the next time IOC is in town. They could meet Chalkie in person!
IT's FUCKING WAR.
Some how J-failure is worth $300,000 a year but a Police Officer is not worth even a cost of living increase?
we'll see about that..even less parkers and movers. If you haven't been brining in Zero's everyday, I suggest start now!
Sit back and watch the city burn!! Take care of the neighborhoods we live in........FUCK DALEY!
SCC. Christmas came yesterday. Our director resigned. Hope the same comes to our brothers in blue soon. Merry Christmas.
No raises,no step raises,no cost of living raises,no retro check,no pension,no medical coverage,no long guns,no tahos... MY ADVISE TO ALL???? Watch "THE SOUND OF MUSIC"!
It's time to realize that this mayor has to go! He is a reason for term limits! Mr. Mayor you are turning Chicago into Detroit real fast. Why you treat your police department like shit is hard to understand. We need the police to be happy and feel energized, so we can all live safely. You and the Aldermen get heafty raises constantly why can't you give them one. Please just be fair to them. It's amazing how hard people will work if they're happy.
From a concerned citizen.
It should read "Fuck You Police and Fuck Your Family Too!" Real estate tax up, sales tax up, cost of living up, value of your home down and now no raises!! I am now going to throw up!!
-just a PO wife
The news never gets the story right or fails to leave things out. They need to report that officers do not reach their top pay until their 25th year. They way they wrote it makes it look like we are making the $78,000 early on. Reaching top pay in the 25th year is unheard of in almost every industry. Most police departments reach their top pay by their 10th year.
P.S. The last of morale just got flushed down the toliet!
The raise that he pulled off the table is just over 3 percent a year, not including the increased Medical, that will take much of that back. The cost of living in Chicago has got to be 4 to 5 percent at least...what the hell is going on? We are taxed to death by Daley, Stroger and now Quinn...something needs to be done. Some type of UNIFIED action. Seriously, maybe a Blue Flu day in May? Seriously!!!
OAKLAND, Calif. -- Two Oakland police officers were shot this afternoon near 74th and MacArthur avenues, according to Oakland Fire Department spokesman David Brue. The shooting reportedly took place during a traffic stop.
The officers were taken to Highland Hospital in Oakland. Their names and medical conditions were not immediately known.
A manhunt is under way and dozens of Oakland police, California Highway Patrol officers and Alameda County sheriff deputies were roping off streets looking for the suspect.
No raise should mean no Olympics!
So his boyfriends can steal over and over and now he can't find money for our raise. His family can steal our pension money but he can's give any to us in the form of a decent raise. Mr. Mayor, how much do you, your family and friends have to steal to satisfy your piggish hunger for money.
There's one reason and one reason only Daley pulled the offer: The city is broke and getting worse. This "recession" we're all talking about is really a Depression. We will not have public support for our contract woes. By 2010, I believe there will be civil disturbances up the kazoo in this country. I would like a pay raise, but right now I'm happy I have a paycheck. It's moments like this that I hate Daley, Madigan and the rest of the corrupt scum we call "elected officials"; these assholes really fucked up this country.

Off topic but needs to be said. WHY do Commanding Officers and a Sgt. Need a take home car from the Academy. Ruthie talks about P/o's plugging in a refrigerator as theft from the city but THIS is ok? I hear Ruthie is in WAY over her merit head.

Hey Ruth,
you got a fridge and microwave in your office = you be the first to give the money back to the city, then maybe we might respect you and your bs rules.
Also, if you are so worried about theft of city money for fridges and microwaves how about you look into the theft of thousands of dollars by your admin. mgr. A.C-H?
She's been stealing from the city for years.
3/20/2009 11:12:00 PM
WTF is going on at the academy, aside from the fact barely any recruits are being hired and trained? Is there some sort of mass exodus from there? Is there anyone left there that knows what they are doing? Judging from these comments the new PPO's are going to suck more than usual.
If this doesn't make even the few guys still working out there slow down I don't know what will. Lets stick together guys!
please please please do not make any more arrests, write parkers, movers, anovs
DO NOTHING UNTIL THERE IS A CONTRACT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
who gives a fuck if your not the "working police" we get fucked with everyday on this job, it is time to tell the city to shove it up their ass
DO NOTHING!!!!!!!!!!
RMD wants rent a cops.......
they are way cheaper. and some aldercreatures can cash in on the deal.
LMAO keep on bringing in those numbers!!!
I say we help the city out with it's financial dilema and write parking tickets on every thing we can. That includes all the unofficial (from district commander) off limit cars that double park, block cross walks or what ever else !!!!!!!!
I'll show you fuckers no confidence! Make me look bad in the papers. I'll show yous.
Who is the bigger dumb FUCK ..those who voted for O'bama , or those that voted for daley ????
Picket the IOC when they visit chicago for a inspection of the 2016 Games
Met them at the hotel APRIl 2nd !!!!!!
Rent-a-cops? Refusal to negotiate? Do yourselves and your families a favor and transfer to a suburban department. More money, more support from the municipality and citizens, better schools for your kids. Let the city rot and watch it from the comfort of your suburban home.

***********************************Your right the country is in a depression. However Daley wants the Olympics! He has the money from the Skyway, Parking meters, parking garages and Midway Airport. The police are his least favorite people because he is a CRIMINAL! I'll show up for work when scheduled, but fuck anything proactive. Little Jody got 300K, Luberman got his money, the alderthieves got paid as did the teachers. So if I don't get paid (actually a pay cut) I'll just do less work.
I would like to thank the mayor, Jody, the aldermen and Todd Stroker FOR FUCKING UP WHAT ONCE WAS A WORLD CLASS CITY!!!! GOD I HOPE YOU ALL GO TO JAIL!
Yeah, I heard it this morning, too. No contract, no workie, dick.
DOEN NO WORK NO MORE!!!! THANKS DICKY DALEY BURN BABEY BURN
FOP please just wait them out.... they have to have no open contracts to be considered for the Olympics... so lets just wait till we are ready.... arbitrition just screws us more
wow. morale just got even worse. good luck with the homicide rate. i predict a 16.1% increase.
INFORMATIONAL PICKETING !!!!
CITY WORKERS AGAINST DALEY 2010 ralley together we can!!! Who wants his job? Can we get anyone whose not got there hand in the cookie jar yet? 2010 Daley OUT!!!!
Keep this in mind when you vote, and when the Olympic Committee comes to town.
Massive Demonstration in the works. We will have spys in the hotels letting us know where they are staying and where they are going.
KEEP IN MIND HOW THIS MAN THINKS, THAT IS WHY WE HAVE THESE RENT-A-COPS.
THEIR COMPANIES WILL BE MAKING CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY OF COOK COUNTY, WHERE AS FOP DOES NOT.
Posted Earlier, Worth Repeating
About 12 or 13 years ago, the Chicago Sun-Times ran a series in the Sunday editions where the readers would write in questions for famous people. The second in the series was Richard M. Daley. It was during contract negotiations and after the city council voted the mayor and themselves hefty raises.
One of the questions was, “How can the mayor get a 35% pay raise and the aldermen get a 30% pay raise and you only offer the firefighters and police officers a 2 ½ % pay raise.”
The mayor’s response, “I am the mayor of a great city and the aldermen are the legislators of a great city. I am very proud of the salary that I make. If this guy or anyone else doesn’t like what we are offering he can quit. We had 40,000 sign up
to take the firefighters test and he can be easily replaced.”
This is what we are up against, the mentality of the mayor.
What ever offer they will give you will suck. Every new contract has always got worse. The medical insurance will suck more. What next? $1000 deductible with perscriptions From $20 to $50? Generic to $25?
A dispatcher with the Oakland police department says two police officers were shot in the 7600 block of MacArthur Boulevard just after 1 p.m. Saturday.
Police sources tell NBC Bay Area the injuries to the officers are very serious.
A huge police presence swarmed the scene, including members of the Oakland police department, the Alameda County Sheriff's Department, the CHP and a SWAT team as they search for the shooter.
The Oakland police helicopter also flew overheard.
Police on the scene told reporters it started as a traffic stop by two Oakland officers on motorcycles. They say the driver got out of his car, shot the two officers and then ran away.
KCBS says police may have been searching for two suspects. .
Then, just after 3 p.m., at 73rd and Hillside one of the suspects was discovered. A shoot-out followed with two additional officers being hit by gunfire.
The suspect was also hit.
Many streets near the Eastmont Town Center were closed including busy 74th Ave.
The first injured officers were taken to Highland Hospital. Just after 4 p.m. the coroner was called to Highland, although it was not immediately confirmed it was for one of the officers.

It was not immediately clear where the two additional officers were taken. Highland is a trauma center.

Mr. Mayor the summer hasn't started yet, but what's the Homicide count now? We really don't have confidence in YOU!!!
He is acting as if 16% over 5 years was some great fucking gift! You factor in a certain raise in medical responsibility and the raise just went to zero! Now factor in inflation/cost of living increase and we actually get a pay cut at 16% over 5 years! FUCK THAT! No one went into this job to make a million dollars a year, and for that guarantee, we are afforded certain ther guarantees... like the guarantee to a cost of living raise, guaranteed medical coverage, and guaranteed pension... When times were good, and boy were they REALLY good up until about a year ago, I dont seem to recall the city saying "hey, times are good, we are not only going to give you your raise, but we are going to throw in a little more!" Nor do I remember during thsoe times the city saying "times are good, here is a $3000 Christmas bonus for a job well done!" This is a slap in every officer's face! FUCK THAT STUTTERING PRICK!!!
Update 4 Oakland Police Officers were shot today...its look like 3 of them were shot by the same suspect. As the weather heats up here in Chicago, please remember to be SAFE OUT THERE!

THATS ALL I HAVE TO SAY
If you are a FOOT MAN or TRAFFIC CAR and you are still bringing in 20-30 parkers or 5 movers YOU ARE THE PROBLEM DUMMIES.I hear all these old timers complain ABOUT EVERYTHING but yet they still do this stuff.
Just as people are demanding the bonuses for AIG exe's be returned, we want the aldermen to return their raises!
NO money generating activity at all from this point on.
Protect your neighborhoods.
Daley and Jfed need to give back half their salary.
Once again the mayor will cry poor like he always does, but what about all that money Richie? The stimulus, the privatization of the Skyway, Midway, and the parking meters. We have been getting 16% over 4 years the last decade..now you want 16.1% over 5 years..GO FUCK YOURSELF..I would rather see lack of contract continue..
Crime is up..Homicides are up..Bank Robberies Up...Morale is down..number of arrests are down..and tickets are down..which equals revenue DOWN.
Time for FOP to take it public..like the mayor said if I am the mayor of one of the largest cities in the country I need to be paid like it..well we are the second largest police force in the country (well that's what we are according to Jody's number)..Pay us like it!!!!
EASY WAYS TO IMPROVE MORALE
Remove Weis
Remove Merit promotions
Supervise all equally (No Favorites)
Open up all positions to bid
Give us a fair contract (comparable to other departments the same size)
Support the police by fighting some damn cases in court, and quit settling because it is cheaper..it makes us look bad.
And FOP...if you do not want to fight for us, then let us know so we can hire a lawyer skilled in labor negotiations with NO TIES to the CITY OF CHICAGO, who will fight for us...IF YOU HAVEN'T HEARD in the new work schedule, your furloughs get reverted to HOURS....NOT DAYS, and you lose days off..AND have to put in time due slips...the FOP says you get extra time on the holidays..Yes we do, but IT IS OUR TIME DUMBASS, WHY WOULD I WANT TO USE IT TO MAKE UP FOR MY FURLO???
Fuck him, Bullshit scare tactic. I'm sure this scheme was dreamed up with Mark Don-a-hoe to make it look like we are getting a great deal from the city.
Time to organize that Olympic march!
Hey t shirt and button people-
We need shirts and buttons to say:
NCNS
(no contract no service)
NCNR
(no contract no revenue)
It seems the mayor found a way to secure 200 million MORE for his Olympics but now has no money to give us a raise. FOP, how about organizing a gathering and greeting the Olympic commitee when they come to town next month. WE need to stop talking and gather at this point. No contract/no Peace!
Cease Fire showing check for 500k.
may not see Chalkie around to much during the IOC meeting. rev's will be having private parties for the week to keep the bangers satisfied. Amazing how money can come from nowhere for this while you people just had it shoved a little farther. Bet there's momey from nowhere to buy the elections the next time around. business as usual in chicago (which just annexed in Washington d.c.) whats going to happen now???
quit bitchin get out there and do something for your pay. your making good money with benifits! times are tough brothers and sisters.
My morale is way up you can wear my uniform boss...Just keep doing your job...
Does this mean there is no retro? If they pay you the same and you do nothing your still ahead.
Its just typical. I cant believe how weak we are. We let one little midget mayor fuck us everytime. And what do we do?? NOTHING!
ITS IN SMALL PRINT AT THE TOP OF THE FRONT PAGE OF THE SUNDAY SUN-TIMES
In 1972 and 73, we were in a deep recession. Pres Nixon, froze federal salaries. Old man Daley said "If it's good enough for the feds, its good enough for me" We went two years without a raise Made the same salary, 71, 72, 73. Be very careful, my young friends
I slowed down from what I was doing before, but now I will not do any revenue producing activity at all!

It should read "Fuck You Police and Fuck Your Family Too!" Real estate tax up, sales tax up, cost of living up, value of your home down and now no raises!! I am now going to throw up!!
===================================
With that said, something the FOP should do is fight to allow us to live out of this shithole of a city. We're forced to live here if we want to keep our jobs.
F.O.P. S.O.S.
Supposedly the deal includes health care for 55+ retires...
Mr. Mayor,
I will sacrifice 100% of any raise on one condition.....Let me live wherever I choose. My child's classroom is a trailer(annex) which itslef along with the school is overcrowded. I can't get my child in a Day Camp because there are limited spots available which fill up in under a minute, because the parks by my home are under-funded. The street in front of my house is a joke, it looks like it was hit by a Daisy-Cutter, several calls to 311 and nothing. If you can't provide employees with simple adequate city services, then maybe it's time to let your employees choose a city/town that can!
INTERESTING:

THis whole thing is just retailiation for the FOP's vote of NO CONFIDENCE against J-FED. Daley is just attempting to negotiate the contract in the Media.
Will FOP now say "Please Please Please reconsider...We will take your 16% and you can forget the retro"???
FOP you have made the King/Furor/Chairman of the Democratic Republic of Chicago angry.
Arbitration will lead to what?? ZIP cause the city is gonna cry poor. Bringing up the billions from Skyway, Midway, Parking Meters, Downtown parking garages will not be allowed cause the whole process is controlled by Daley and his community organizer in D.C.
Can see the a distinct possibility of dramatic changes to my families current lifestyle.
"THE HILLS ARE ALIVE, WITH THE SOUND OF MUSIC"!
Watch for Jfed to step in like the voice of reason and get things rolling again. Fuck it dont give me a raise. Medical for every stubbed toe thats still covered on this contract.
Seriously, we have to start hitting Daley where it hurts. With all the focus on the Olympic bid we need to have a protest where the Olympic pick committee visits next. Or instead of a no-confidence vote for Weis how about a no-confidence vote that the City will be able to provide enough safety to visiting athletes and spectators. Now THAT would get some publicity if the FOP publicly expressed that with the current level of manpower we could not adequately ensure safety for the projected crowds.
Come on, lets play hardball.
WOULD THIS BE A VIOLATION OF THE CONTRACT? OR IS THIS COVERED UNDER THE 1ST AMENDMENT RIGHT TO FREE SPEECH IF THOSE IN ATTENDANCE AT A PROTEST ARE OFF DUTY??

Show that fucking asshole mayor how the police really feel. No tickets at all !!!!!!Set demonstrations for when the IOC is here let them know that HITLER is alive and well in Shitcago !
Someone please flush the toilet that is City Hall, let him swirl around the bowl and then be gone as is proper for a obnoxious TURD.
Fuck You Daley !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Simply amazing! How is it that other big cities New York and LA can hire people in 3-7 months but Chicago takes 2+ years? NYPD using stimulus money to hire 4000+ cops in the next 4 years, while Chicago is using stimulus money to buy cameras that dont work, not to mention contracting out private security companies. What a joke!
http://www.nydailynews.com/ny_local/...d_nearly_.html
More than 3,900 new police officers could soon be working in New York City, thanks to extra federal funding.
Approximately 400 cops could be hired in the next few months as part of the $1 billion set aside for new police officers in President Obama's economic stimulus package, Rep. Anthony Weiner said yesterday.
The proposed Obama budget also includes federal funding for an additional 3,500 cops the city could hire over the next four years.
The federal government would pick up 75% of the funding for those new hires as part of the Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS) program.
"Our safety challenges can't take a backseat to our economic ones," said Weiner (D-Brooklyn, Queens).
"The COPS program is a proven winner, cutting crime and making neighborhoods safe in New York City."
The extra funds could offset last month's news that the NYPD was being forced by the city's fiscal crisis to cancel its 2010 rookie class, eliminating 1,000 positions
This topic makes me wonder. It occurred to me that CPD are Humpty Dumptys security detail right? So being an average citizen, I'm wondering since he is such a jag off to you, (Oh, may I remind you he screws us often too?) why would any of you be his security detail? I mean I cannot stand the guy and if I were the police, I would hate him. So why is it that any of you would potentially risk your lives for that rat? Exactly what kind of cops would want that job?
RICH the bitch Daley, ESAD (eat scat and Die) you asshole !! Your day is coming !!!!!!!!
That's why the contract shoud be negotiated a year before it expires, not 2 years after it expires..... Hold off for a couple more years FOP and fuck this city!!!!
They are giving us more to do with less personnel, and this is our thanks for putting our asses on the line for this shit hole.
Aldermen got their 6% cost of living increase for doing a part-time job. Teachers get 5% a year and we get shit on...
ITs on daley wait till the Olympic pick committee comes to town and we picket in front of them,lets go fop.ill be thier cooter said
The check-off sheet in every district should be blank every night. No parkers, no CTA checks, nothing.
General Orders don't require you to generate activity. You only need to answer your calls, write paper and make arrests ONLY on signed complaints... nothing more.
I'm just sayin'

4 OAKLAND COPS SLAIN
FOUR (4) Oakland police officers were murdered by a gunman in two incidents this afternoon in East Oakland.
The lone gunman, also now deceased, first shot two officers in a traffic stop. The gunman fled on foot. The neighborhood was sealed off to traffic for the ensuing manhunt for the cop killer.
He was later located on a 9-1-1 tip barricaded in a nearby location. Two SWAT officers and the gunman were killed in the last gun battle.

Excluding the murders of police officers in NYC on 9/11, this quadruple homicide of police officers is unprecedented in modern time in the U.S.A.
You guys need a 24 hr no show to get people's attention. What's he gonna do, fire the whole Dept.?
Sadly we're led by a union manned by cowards. Not one of them was the was the working police in recent years. Does anyone believe for a second that any FOP leadership cares in the slightest about the rank and file?
They're getting paid by both the department and the union (money from our dues).
They get to spend evenings, weekends and holidays with their families.
And just about all of them has some gig lined up for when they're done leeching off us. None are going back to police work after their FOP stint.
Call them about the city taking your health deductions out after taxes and you'll get told by Dougherty that "It's just pennies."
The only time they take any real stand is when it involves them. Like when they were actually expected to qualify with their weapons.
The FOP is the CPD's version of AIG executives.
WAKE THE FUCK UP PEOPLE OUR UNION IS A JOKE. WE'RE NOT BEING REPRESENTED BY OUR OWN!
Oak Lawn PD tops out at $76,000 after 36 months of service. Chicago PO's top out at $78,000 after 25 years of service..... WE ARE A FUCKING JOKE!
And Capone was called a crook.
Capone had nothing on

How about a no confidence vote on Dick on the second day of the IOC visit.
Hopefully it will be a warm day, and the gunfire from 003 will echo through the spring air.

DALEY says thier is no money but a quick look shows that thier are hundreds of millions in TIF slush funds from all over the city. TIF funds are property taxes that have been diverted to be used by Daley to give handouts to his developer friends. These propert taxes are supposed to be used to pay for city services like schools, and streets repairs, and Police services. so next time a young chicago public schools honor roll student dies remember Daley took the money that was supposed to hire police and gave it to a developer friend to build condos no one is buying and Offices (block 37) that no one will occupy.
Daley has nothing to worry about.
The suck a$$ dui guys will pick up the slack to keep their choice benefits.

WTF! Now the Mayor wants RENT A COPS writing tickets!
Just on fox news....Daley pulls 16% raise offer off table....says tough economic times....What a jag bag!!!!! why doesnt he pull olympic bid......asswipe
Remember city council gave themselves a 6% percent a year raise. Then gave there staff a5% a year raise. the carpenters were given prevailing wage increases over 4% a year.So were the electricans, the laborers, and the streets and san teamsters all more than 4% a year. The teachers recieved over 4% a year so did CTA. All recieved more money and did not have to wait one day after thier old contracts expired. I will write reports and take appropriate police action when it is neccasary but fuck you daley and fuck you city council. FOP HAD BETTER NOT SETTLE FOR A CENT LESS THAN 4.2%-4.5% A YEAR. AND NO GIVE BACKS ON MEDICAL,
Saw it in today's Scum-Times....Daley has finally thrown down his midget gauntlet!
This Dept. can forget about any activity from me!

WHY IN HELL DOES ANYONE WRITE PARKERS & TICKETS???!!! WAKE UP DUMMIES!!!

Now, private security companies write tickets. JFED likes the idea as he stated in a press conference today. One less way to force a contract.
No raise should mean no Olympics!
So his boyfriends can steal over and over and now he can't find money for our raise. His family can steal our pension money but he can's give any to us in the form of a decent raise. Mr. Mayor, how much do you, your family and friends have to steal to satisfy your piggish hunger for money.

There's one reason and one reason only Daley pulled the offer: The city is broke and getting worse. This "recession" we're all talking about is really a Depression. We will not have public support for our contract woes. By 2010, I believe there will be civil disturbances up the kazoo in this country. I would like a pay raise, but right now I'm happy I have a paycheck. It's moments like this that I hate Daley, Madigan and the rest of the corrupt scum we call "elected officials"; these assholes really fucked up this country.

I'm with you.
The politicians Washington keep media attention on the banks and AIG bonuses, to keep the attention away from themselves.
The state pols in Springfield keep bs ing about blago, yet did nothing to change things until the G pinched him.
The city council is worried about dog and cat genitals, and lessor nonsense.
We are doomed!
Daley will have Obama tax us 90%. So he wins again.
Too much time wasted worrying about jody, not enough worrying about
da mare. Richie's plan to hire an outsider worked.
First the ones talking about the FOP being more public about the city's BS still don't get that or FOP and the city are partners. They all get great city spots after they're done. They have had so many great opportunities, but have said and done nothing.
The public needs to know that the mayor is destroying the city to get the olympics and it's only for his legacy and his cronies to get rich on. The public needs to know about all the spending and corrupt contracts. Where's the money? He sold the Sky Way! He sold the parking meters! He sold Midway! The police aren't asking for much, just a normal cost of living wage. The mayor is hiding all the money and paving a park just to show the olympic committee. He is forgetting about the rest of the city. We will be the next East St. Louis under Daley.
It is true yet my moron co-workers just dont know when to quit! Why are you still going out there every day and putting yourselves at risk with nonsense arrests, parkers, movers ACTIVITY!!!! This department is so far gone that I will never see the day the pendulum swings in the opposite direction.
This mayor could come to the house of these 3 year wonders, knock on the door and walk inside then take a massive dump right on the living room floor in front of the wife and kids and these go getters would tell the wife to clean it up then drive to work and aggressively seek out drinkers and one baggers just to keep that plain clothes tact or gang spot.
THIS DEPARTMENT IS DONE.... PERIOD
"I got ur Back" J-Fed isn't worried about us guys without a contract. He's just like the aldermen with their heafty cost of livng raises they vote themselves and he gets a $310,000 a year salary, company car and a nice FBI pension too. If the Mayor and the Aldermen are so worried about revenue why would they vote themselves raises? They're too dumb to realize that over taxing drives business away.

Hey Ruth,
you got a fridge and microwave in your office = you be the first to give the money back to the city, then maybe we might respect you and your bs rules.
Also, if you are so worried about theft of city money for fridges and microwaves how about you look into the theft of thousands of dollars by your admin. mgr. A.C-H?
She's been stealing from the city for years.

ADS and commander have cars. The ADM sgt and another officer in office also have take home cars. Three full service officers as secretaries in the office to serve two exempts. The adm asst has not worked in months and they worry about fridges? The priorities are mixed up in the academy.

Seriously, we have to start hitting Daley where it hurts. With all the focus on the Olympic bid we need to have a protest where the Olympic pick committee visits next. Or instead of a no-confidence vote for Weis how about a no-confidence vote that the City will be able to provide enough safety to visiting athletes and spectators. Now THAT would get some publicity if the FOP publicly expressed that with the current level of manpower we could not adequately ensure safety for the projected crowds.
Come on, lets play hardball.
3/21/2009 04:17:00 PM
I am in, we all know what route they will take, it's the only newly paved road in the city....
This needs to happen....
Do not demand arbitration....
That is exactly what this move is trying to instigate.
Many of us have never taken a single medical/sick day since we've been on the job...
The department allows five occurrences per year, if you go over 3 days, you have to get a note from the doc (I'm sure it's not hard.)(If you are unsure of the rules, call FOP or visit the lodge 7 website). If they want to treat us like shit, this WILL make us ALL feel like shit.....and ALL of us need to take five very long medical occurrences this year to make us ALL feel better.....
Let's stop the BS and turn this up a notch!!!!
officers
dont believe in any white shirt
go to roll call and then have "your" own roll call and take a stand.
back each other up, write reports and lock up the bad guy, thats IT
veteran officers should be taking a lead roll for young ones.
if this cant bring us together nothing will!!!
No, FUCK YOU DALEY. I Wrote my last parker 2 days ago. Last mover several months ago.
I'm not a big fan of the coverage we usually get at the Chicago reader but this week's issue has a pretty good article about plans underway to allow security guards to issue movers and parkers. We got to wake up. This is a big threat to one of our job functions and is going to undermine our negotiating power. For further info go to Chicagoreader.com the article is by Ben joravsky. we can't let the city council get away with this. It, like the introduction of the TMAs a couple of years ago, is a direct threat to our jobs.
God Bless the Oakland families that lost loved ones today.
These animals are not worth it...let them kill each other every day, show up to do the paper work then tag em and bag em...thats all. For all you CPD out there working the streets...STOP!
NOBODY BETTER BE WRITING PARKERS, MOVERS, ANOVS OR ANYTHING ELSE THAT BRINGS THIS CITY MONEY. FUCK YOU MAYOR. LETS PROTEST OR STAND UP AND DO SOMETHING.
Can you say goose eggs?
WELL WELL...
MARK D WHAT R U GONNA DO NOW!
LETS PUT RESIDENCY BACK ON THE TABLE THEN.
HERES A SAMPLE
AFTER A MEMEBER HITS 10 YEARS(OR ANOTHER SUITABLE TIME PERIOD) HE MAY RESIDE WHERE EVER HE LIKES AS LONG AS IT DOESNT INTERFERE W/ HIS DUTIES.
CITY PLUSES MOST OFFICER BUY A HOME WITHIN THEIR 1ST 5 YEARS.
MOST OFFICER WOULD NOT RECIEVE THE AMOUNT OF MONEY THE PUT INTO THEIR HOMES. SWIMMING POOLS AND HOT TUBS DONT MAKE A HOUSE BIGGER.
FOP WOULD LOSE POLITICAL WEIGHT BECAUSE THEIR MEMBERS WOULD HAVE NO VOTES ON CITY ELECTIONS.
TOLL WAY REVENUES WOULD INCREASE
OFFICER PLUSES.
LATE BLOOMERS CAN SEND THEIR KIDS TO GOOD PUIBLIC SCHOOLS.
TAXES WOULD BE CHEAPER IN SOME AREAS.
MORE HOME FOR SAME MONEY AND OLD TIMERS COULD BEGIN SETTING UP THEIR RETIREMENT HOME LEGITLY.
CHEAPER CITY STICKERS/ AND BOTTLED WATER?
U GET THE POINT. I WISH R DELEGATES WOULD GO TO THE NEGOTIATION TRAINGS INSTEAD OF DRINKING AND EATING ON THOSE FOP FUNDED TRAING TRIPS.
KEEP SAYING UR HOPING THE CITY KICK IN 4 INSURANCE AT 55!!!!
HELLO THE CITY IS PAYING PEOPLE TO RETIRE EARLY OLD TIMER DONT PRODUCE AND U KNOW THAT.
(NOT SAYING NOT PRODUCING IS A BAD THING EITHER.)
OH WELL IM GOING BY DOUGLAS PARK TO LOOK AT THE NEW ROAD INSTALLED AND THE PRETTY FLAGS THAT THE CITY HAS NO MONEY FOR????
Tough economic times? If times are so broke that C.P.D is not affordable for the good citizens of this city to provide for, than are the good citizens being robbed of their hard earned cash by paying for more state txs. more cook county txs, higher medical costs, higher entertainment txs cost, higher taxes period! and topper on the cost of robbng the good citizens of illinois/Chicago No provisions to pay for law enforcement survival!
OT: Our heartfelt sympathies need to be expressed to the Oakland Police Department as they suffered a tragic loss of four officers today.
May you rest in peace and be comforted in God's arms, fallen heroes.
Daley, Weis intrigued by security guard proposal to write tickets ......... I WONDER WHY THEY ARE INTRIGUED? MAYBE BECAUSE THEY ARE CHEAP, MONEY HUNGRY BASTARDS WHO WANT TO BRING IN MONEY.....BUT NOT FOR THE DEPT.

This topic makes me wonder. It occurred to me that CPD are Humpty Dumptys security detail right? So being an average citizen, I'm wondering since he is such a jag off to you, (Oh, may I remind you he screws us often too?) why would any of you be his security detail? I mean I cannot stand the guy and if I were the police, I would hate him. So why is it that any of you would potentially risk your lives for that rat? Exactly what kind of cops would want that job?
3/21/2009 08:35:00 PM
They don't like him either but stay for the 1 day on 1 off schedule and sergeants pay grade that is pensionable! Even the fat sam his commander is only a patrolman but gets paid double+patrolmans salary1 Being mobbed up helps sammy,and keeps him fat! Hey j-fed how about a power test for daleys and burkes detail? Why not they were "promoted" and most are to fat to run!
Daley got 1 billion for the sale of the parking meters. The alderman say they have 900 million in their TIFF slush fund. Daley has 500 million in his rain day fund and he put up a 500 million bond for the Olympic bid. That’s 2.9 billion without the procedes of the sale of Midway. The city has already allotted a 16 % raise for the police. Last year the cost of living for Chicago went up 5.6% and the aldermen and the mayor took a 6.5% raise. If the city wants to roll the dice at arbitration they could lose big time.
The City settled with the other unions, only police and fire are left. Does anyone actually believe that an arbitrator would allow 30 unions to get raises and then tell police and fire that there is no money for you?
All Daley wants is to take your attention off of Al Sanchez, Bill Daley, Victor Reyes and his wife, Degnan, Donovan, Joyce and the Mayor’s extended family and himself. Remember that the mayors nephew is under investigation by the IG for loans from the Police Pension Fund! Kiss the Olympics good bye. The city is running third out of the four contenders for 2016. The police will picket the IDOC now and Daley will blame the police for Chicago not being picked.
SCC,
since the FOP has no balls, how about setting up a survey on who would be interested in partcipating in a rally when the Olympic commitee comes to town. If you get enough supporters, put it up on the board, lets band together and show this Mayor we have had enough! They tell us to eat shit and like eat and for years we have, now we have a voice(SCC) we dont need the union to organize!

UPDATE on Oakland P.D. Murders
The Oakland Tribune is now reporting THREE officers dead and ONE officer in critical condition.
On the initial traffic stop of the gunman, now deceased, the two officers were on motorcycles.
An Oakland P.D. press conference is scheduled for about 11 PM Chicago time
Just saw j-pud on the news about security guards writing tickets. That numbskull actually said, "I don't know many officers that like writing tickets." What a fool. A know-nothing moron who is so far up Daley's ass it ain't funny. How the hell does Weis look at himself in the mirror every morning. Nice to know he's a $300,000 whore.
It's time for a serious job action. No arrestes in the hot districts.
Time to put the blinders on.
Make a blizzard of paper on every call. No arrestes just paper.
Hookers, druggers, and battery cases all result in no probasble cause.
It's a great time to be on the medical for an IOD.
To 9:31 P.M. I know nothing of their skills as union people but on the street neither DiMaria or Bella were ever cowards.I would work a car with either of them and I have with Frank.Know of what you speak.

I'd be 'happy I had a paycheck', too, IF NO ONE ELSE COULD GET A RAISE, either.
A city should value its teachers and its public safety officers, above all else. Without education, the next generation is lost. Without public safety personnel, the line between civility and chaos disappears.

Wrong!
The city claims a $200 million deficit, when the city is really flush with cash after the sale of the skyway and parking meters.
The mayor is holding that money for Olympic reserves. The large cash deposit is required to hold the games since the US government does not guarantee financing like other countries.
The mayor holds this money as if it is his private Olympic account, but this is the taxpayers' money.
The city claims a deficit as a means of increasing taxes and fees. Those taxes are indirectly financing the Olympic bid, as the mayor holds large cash reserves away from the taxpayers in the hope that he can give this money to his friends to construct the Olympic games.
The city sold 100 years of taxpayer earnings. Make no mistake. There is money available for police pay raises.
FOP please just wait them out.... they have to have no open contracts to be considered for the Olympics... so lets just wait till we are ready.... arbitrition just screws us more
3/21/2009 06:34:00 PM

Bull. It's just not true.
Once again the mayor will cry poor like he always does, but what about all that money Richie? The stimulus, the privatization of the Skyway, Midway, and the parking meters. We have been getting 16% over 4 years the last decade..now you want 16.1% over 5 years..GO FUCK YOURSELF..I would rather see lack of contract continue..
YOU FORGOT THE MONEY HE'S GETTING FROM OBAMA. 1 BILLION.
Remember city council gave themselves a 6% percent a year raise. Then gave there staff a5% a year raise. the carpenters were given prevailing wage increases over 4% a year.So were the electricans, the laborers, and the streets and san teamsters all more than 4% a year.

AND NO GIVE BACKS ON MEDICAL.

WHY IN HELL DOES ANYONE WRITE PARKERS & TICKETS???!!! WAKE UP DUMMIES!!!
-----------------------------------
What's a parker? I vaguely remember writing one long ago. Movers? Who wants to go to traffic court on their day off?
""Consider into the equation the coming 1.5% Illinois Income Tax HIKE and we need 1.5% just to stay even, not counting cost of living or the currency being worth less than last year.""
Um, I hate to break it to you, but the 1.5% increase you are speaking of is really a 50% increase in the tax rate.(3% to 4 1/2%)
Just like the license plates are gonna go up from 78 dollars to 98 dollars, is just short of a 25% increase.
And don't forget, this is NOW, all at once, not like your 16.5% raise was going to be over 5 years.
So why is it that any of you would potentially risk your lives for that rat? Exactly what kind of cops would want that job?

I think its bullshit that its going on 2 yrs to get this contract. I dont think it should be called a contract, they should call it an "agreement" the whole point to having a contract is that once its expired the previous contract is void. With that, everything written on the previous contract cannot be enforced. Residency, no strike clause. etc etc. I know there is a rule that states that until the new contract is agreed upon, the old EXPIRED contract is the written rules. that is non-sense. As far as doing anything for this city...whats the point? they dont give a shit about you, why should we give a shit about them. Just show up for work on time and them go home on time. thats about it. And..that whole private security thing is some funny shit. half of those shitbirds have IR # themselves and the other half have either a suspended or revoked DL.
I just read the Sun-Times piece regarding the private security guards possibly writing citations, in which our Super. is quoted as saying: "I haven't met many Police Officers who love to write tickets." That means that our own boss is under the impression that the majority of Police Officers do not love to do their job.
Thanks a lot fuckhead.

The answer to what is going on at the academy is Howard Lodding. A smiling yet ruthless backstabber and good enough of a politician to run for prssident. On another topic this talk of blue flu is a joke a good 40% of the p.o.'s at my district are afraid to go on the medical when they are actually sick instead they would rather come to work and infect everyone else or burn their own earned comp time which is the same as you paying the city $250 so you can stay home for a day. The contract will be settled in late September with financial and a couple other issues going to arbitration. 013 and 021 will be closed sometime this year.EOM
Round II
The Grievance is a wonderful thing....
There are sooooo many things that can be legitimately grieved but nobody does.....maybe we don't want to be individually scrutinized out of retaliation for grieving something, maybe we don't want the "boss" to assign us to some BS every night.....Well, it's time to make the city catch up for their decades of neglect and our silence. I ask that our district union reps make a detailed list of all things that represent legit grievances. Prior to submitting the grievance, inform all members of that district/unit.......
If/when this is done, I ask that ALL members of those districts/units sign off on the grievances.....
Individually they can make our day shit.....United, we can take them down!!!!!
I'm just saying .... the citizen/prisoners of Shortshank's fiefdom should rise up and block these newly refurbished streets [or pull a stuttering pri*k trick like carving giant "X"s across the street as he did to Meigs Field] so while the IOC is visiting next month, they'll see that we don't want them here!!!

And..that whole private security thing is some funny shit. half of those shitbirds have IR # themselves and the other half have either a suspended or revoked DL.
Your point? Its a politically gotten contract. And Im sure there are Aldercreatures with IR#s as well. And whether the DL is suspended or revoked doesnt matter,they are here they are working so leave it alone. Ya know?
Chill my Brother Chill.

Wanna drop a bomb on the Mayor???
Check out this whistler blower site
bettergov.org/investigations
At the bottom of the page is an "email us" address which is (info@bettergov.org).
Look, if you see something-For example: a HQ suck hole with a take home car drop a dime on the dept. Be detailed and make it easy for them to embarrass the City. Have city car's plate #, description of car, location of the car, who is driving it, how is the car a necessity for their job etc.
THese guys have the connections with the whores in the media to exploit for the Good of the Public.
3/21/2009 08:59:00 PM
Good idea, hey great SCC how about an "open thread" where we could plug in plates locations and drivers who are using city cars for personal use?
/////////////////////////////////
Okay I'll start. How about a commander of a specialized unit who went on the medical two days before his retirement date. Hes been carting his wife back and forth to work. Hes still in your old hood mayor shit and should be easy to find.

If you are a FOOT MAN or TRAFFIC CAR and you are still bringing in 20-30 parkers or 5 movers YOU ARE THE PROBLEM DUMMIES.I hear all these old timers complain ABOUT EVERYTHING but yet they still do this stuff.
NO MORE:
I use to have one of these cush spots, I admit it. M-F S/S DOG. However, I bid back to 1st W so that could be at home during the day to take care of the kids. And please, it is not because we live over our heads..anyone who has kids knows they are expensive. I drive a beat up compact car and so does the wife.
We couldn't afford for me to stay on the traffic car schedule. I was writing 30-50 parkers 12-20 movers/day, but not anymore. I'll do my 8 and go home to what really matters. "Oh dude hit you, but you don't want to sign complaints, well I hope you get your keys back and have a nice day"
"Hey look, that citizen is waving us down..NOPE...Hey look at that nice citizen waving and thanking us for paying for their housing, comcast, and cigarettes...time to wave back"
Daniel, you're wrong. Arbitrators are bound by past practice and past practice is retro. And your blanket insults are the reason for deleting the comment.
To the other mope who is attempting to tell us how to run our comment section and our blog, we make it a habit to do exactly the opposite of what you suggest. You're welcome to start your own blog and comment away to your heart's content. But demanding we bend to your wishes? ::flush::

I wonder if this has anything to do with the no confidence vote on J-Fed.
Screw the police, because the police embarrassed "His Elective Majesty".
Richard M Daley reminds me of a spoiled ten year old. Only shorter and not potty trained.
This city needs an enema.
3/21/2009 11:25:00 PM
The City pulled their economic offer BEFORE the No-Confidence vote was taken. It just took Fran Spielman a few days to get fed the story.
The check-off sheet in every district should be blank every night. No parkers, no CTA checks, nothing.
I'm just sayin'

I would assume that you have more than 10 years on the job and have a secured bid spot on the watch. But, how about us who are have less than 10 years and desperately trying to get the watch we need for family reasons?
I do my activities not to make my Supervisors happy, but, for myself and my family. I do believe that Watch Commanders do review your monthly activities.
One of the problem in this Department is there are too many fucking whiners. I'm just thankful that I still have a job, receiving my checks every two weeks, able to provide for my family, and a roof over my head.
Well, now we know what it takes to pay off an FBO agent: $310,000. To think, he could have sold out to the Russians for more. I guess we got the bargain.
BTW, there is NO requirement that contracts be settled before the IOC makes their decision. That's a very wrong rumor planted by the Hall.
"i bet revenue goes down even more."
"WHY IN HELL DOES ANYONE WRITE PARKERS & TICKETS???!!!"
The people don't care if we don't write parkers and movers. It does'nt hurt them. We should do the opposite, write every parker or mover you see. Much more dramatic effect on the citizens of this city.
SO THE MAYOR"S OFFICE ADMITS TO NEGIOTING IN THE PRESS !!!
all specialized units tacts gangs narcotics all write to froms that they want contract protections or they want to be sent back to districts. .. but those are only looking out for themselves and not the greater good .. clout babies will never do that
I say, BYE-BYE Olympics!
Mr. Mayor, anything we the patrolmen of Chicago can do to thwart your Olympic dreams you can count on us doing it.
You evidently have disdain for us, so its is time to show our disdain for you one knotch higher.
Go look for your private security guards and be prepared for the chaos they will bring. Get more cameras so you can watch Chalkie at work in real time. Your threat of no pay raise will explode in your face.
If another officer is killed in the line of duty in Chicago, the family should request Daley not be allowed to speak at the funeral. Daley is a P.O.S. who does not care about the police. F%$# Him!!
Informational pickets by all ranks along spread thruought the route that the IOC committee will be taking, I know we have it already. Time to Unite like never before, signed a white shirt.
Howard Lodding. A smiling yet ruthless backstabber and good enough of a politician [POS] to run for prssident [sic].
3/21/2009 11:51:00 PM
Thank you, thank you, thank you. Finally, someone else has seen Lodding as the absolute jagoff he is and has been for years. Howie, or Lil' Huberman as he is known, is a smiling, no good, back stabbing POS. And he and Ruthie Wedster make an unbelieveable tag team for treachery and nonesense. Steer clear of those two.
The mayor’s response, “I am the mayor of a great city and the aldermen are the legislators of a great city. I am very proud of the salary that I make. If this guy or anyone else doesn’t like what we are offering he can quit. We had 40,000 sign up
to take the firefighters test and he can be easily replaced.”
This is what we are up against, the mentality of the mayor.

I remember this article like it was yesterday!!! When I try letting some of the younger Officers know about this particular article, I'm not sure they believe me. Coming on the job 23 years ago, I too was pretty oblivious to the corrupt ways of this city. But when we were going through negotiations and this interview hit the news stands, I was livid. I was thinking, "how can our mayor talk about us like this when we are chasing thugs with guns through alleys at 3 in the morning, or handling 34 assignments on a summer night"? This was my introduction to this piece of excrement known as Daley. He thinks he is beyond reproach! Let's stick together and ride the storm out.
BACK UP EACH OTHER!!
Imagine if cherry bombs and M-80s were gong off all over the place in Washington park when Crime boss daley and his Olympic stooges were touring? Just sayin!
Not to mention constant police sirens in and near the park. Should make quite an impression on our gangster mayor. And the Olympic committee.
to the "REGULAR READER" who has "LOST A LOT OF RESPECT" for us:
We don't know what the hell you're talking about, but criticizing the blog and calling us names ISN'T the way to get published. The minute we see that, flush goes your comment. We don't owe you a forum now and we never have in the past to rip us.
We delete comments on occasion because they run afoul of the rules, good taste, or because they're duplicate. We've also deleted comments that run on and on and on for a thousand words, ones that are completely and provably wrong, and ones that are obviously posted one after the other in a 5 minutes span by someone who doesn't know how to take off the CAPS lock.
We're pretty sure you ran afoul of at least one or more of these rules. Try harder to comply and make sense and you might have a decent shot at being published.
You still have to do ur job just nothing EXTRA,like if someone runs dont chase,if you see a battery,just walk dont run.if someone calles,just a report.so on on on.

You truly do have the patience of a saint.
Thanks for all dedicated work here on this blog. If people are so disgusted, they can rant and sprew by starting their own blogs.
You ALL be safe out there.
BTW, I'm really sorry you all got screwed over.

The people appreciate the absence of having their pockets picked.
That 'much more dramatic effect' is achieved by those natural activities that the savages will reliably engage in, if left to their own devices.
The only ones calling for ticket blitzes are city hall suck asses.
To satisfy these desperate folks, blitz the ghettos. Plenty of activity, yet zero revenue.
I have a standing understanding with my family whereas if I am ever killed in the line of duty Mayor Daley in NOT to be at my funeral. I suggest everyone do the same. In fact, maybe we could put it in writing. Hey FOP can you help!!!!!!
If there is no raise then we shouldnt do anything for this city fuck daley and fuck j-fed. who is the puppet and who is the marionette. give us our raise you midget fuck and fuck the olympics. fuck the fop too the sell out president. that is all my friends.......
old retired guy said...
In 1972 and 73, we were in a deep recession. Pres Nixon, froze federal salaries. Old man Daley said "If it's good enough for the feds, its good enough for me" We went two years without a raise Made the same salary, 71, 72, 73. Be very careful, my young friends
3/21/2009 07:51:00 PM
Yeah, no raise, but how much were you stealing?

You can get the watch you want and probably furlough too, just readjust where you work, go to a district where your seniority can get you what you need. As your seniority moves you up, move over to a more desirable district. That is how that seniority thing works.
Fuck this jagoff mayor, he gets nothing from me. Nothing. Go ahead, hire rent a cops. See if I give a fuck. I am gone in a few years and I am just going through the motions. Soon it will be over.
I say let's hold out for the next mayoral election, it couldn't get any worse.

So you think the solution to your perceived problems is to piss off the citizens at large?
Chances are that will not garner you a whole lot of public support.
I don't have a whole lot of good answers for just how you can go about improving the level of general public support for police. In a city as corrupt as Chicago, no one trusts city government, and the CPD is after all, just another city agency, and one that has a somewhat sordid history.
It doen't really matter much that most Chicago cops are probably decent people. The perception is somewhat different from the outside looking in. People look at the corrupt nature of Chicago government at all levels, and just figure the police department is no different.
No offense but many people these days are going without raises. Some are taking pay cuts as part of their jobs. Sorry that you have to suffer like everyone else.
I love that idea of constant sirens and M-80's at the Olympic Event. Now wouldnt it be a shame if for some unknown reason I just couldnt seem to get the "dump gate" on my Garbage truck to close? I HATE when that happens. Or better yet if the spinklers "suddenly" went on near the podium. Wouldnt matter the water would run right off that Little Fat Greasy bastard.Another Idea is to lace the area with Seagull Food for a week prior to the event.That way the nice birds can have a stuttering target to shit on JUST LIKE HE SHITS ON US......
To the Sun-Times reporters who troll this site...
Please go back in your files, find this and republish it before you paper goes under,
About 12 or 13 years ago, the Chicago Sun-Times ran a series in the Sunday editions where the readers would write in questions for famous people. The second in the series was Richard M. Daley. It was during contract negotiations and after the city council voted the mayor and themselves hefty raises.
One of the questions was, “How can the mayor get a 35% pay raise and the aldermen get a 30% pay raise and you only offer the firefighters and police officers a 2 ½ % pay raise.”
The mayor’s response, “I am the mayor of a great city and the aldermen are the legislators of a great city. I am very proud of the salary that I make. If this guy or anyone else doesn’t like what we are offering he can quit. We had 40,000 sign up
to take the firefighters test and he can be easily replaced.”
And make a big deal out of Chicago being dead LAST on the Olympic Committee's list, (not enough bribes), and how much we are being screwed.
"No offense but many people these days are going without raises. Some are taking pay cuts as part of their jobs. Sorry that you have to suffer like everyone else.
