Captains Moved?
Who's got a copy of the order?
We were told a whole bunch of surgical appointments were made for next Wednesday so shoulders, knees, elbows, and arterial stents could be prepared for longer and healthier retirements.

Bye Bye Dugan, looks like you are INSIGNIFICANT!
I saw the order and it is pretty funny. Wedster to 003 on midnights! Lipman launched to 011! One guy who lives in 022 to 020 from an inside spot!
As long as they don't bounce Aguinaga when he's done filling in for T-cubed (Telephone Threats Trahanas). We don't want Andrews getting any visions of grandeur and making 2/W any worse than it already is.
Wait, wait...
FINALLY someone who has the stones to stick up to Masters/Weis. Thats right, Dan Dugan took a stand against the dynamic duo on the issue of moving Captains around to spread around the workoload. He told Weis that if he cant run the Patrol Division then expect him to drop papers and leave. (and go to the media about manpower shortages). low and behold, J-fled backed down (once again) and now the Captains will stay put. Way to go Dugan.
Remember this? Ahhhh... guess it was all bullshit, or Dugan's on his way out.
TO CAPTAINS:
Get to work youse overpaid whiny desk jockeys!
Get on dem summer nights and LIKE IT!!!!
Youse gets paid enough...youse don't like it, QUIT!!!!
R. Daley, Lord of Chicago
yep J-fled is going to deep-6 a little bit more of the collective knowledge base in one more stroke of a pen.
As much as some captains suck, these never been the police mother fuckers are killing this job.
looks like dugan got trumped---watch for a bunch of bosses to pull the plug--- looks like the city is doing this on purpose to make guys retire to trim the payroll.... what will happen next will be something to see, sgts as watch commanders....
Yes Capt were moved and lts from the building detailed to districts... this det has no clue what they are doing anymore..
I looked at the survey they want you to fill out on-line. This nonsense is the type of garbage that gives credence to CAPS and other social agendas. There is no way to answer a question without somehow supporting their agenda.
This crap is just welfare for the otherwise unemployable eggheads that run them. It also allows the politicians to funnel money to the Universities that employ people like our President's wife in nonexistent positions for hundreds of thousands of tax dollars a year.
Hit DELETE on the survey.
I thought that wasn't going to happen, per "Doogie"
The order is in the district in box for clear applications.
call my aldercreature i was promised days
merit promoted 3 times and i have to work nights
this isn't fair
area deputy chief will be doing medical checks on captains
Give me a break, the poor captain has to go and work midnights or third watch! Who cares? They make big dough and will have a great pension! Political hacks in rare form. We do NOT need captains. It's a political rank that should be eliminated or reduced to one captain per district just like C.F.D. has one captain per house. Just like us, they have overlapping shifts where the captain sees everyone under his command and if a situation arises, he can handle it. Plain and simple!
NOOOOOOO!
Say it ain't so!
who cares , all captains are merit appointments , many police officers were passed over on sergeants test by the merit captains
look in the mirror and you will see you're a good guy still wearing a blue shirt , quit drinking the cool aid
captains are draining the pension
fund , 75 % of captains were merit lieutenants
heard through the grapevine.... your back-pay checks are printed and waiting to be released from the comp controlers office downtown......hopefully its true.
SUNK
How is the captain from the duce going to 18?
And all the house mouse Lietenants were put on days. Makes perfect sense. No Captains on days ( except for the one in 020 who " can't work nights")and now the know nothing downtown Lts' will be on days in the district. A patrol Lt. with years on afternoons or midnights is too insignificant to be given a chance to work days because the poor meritorious headquarters dollies can't stay out after dark
So, if this is true, then what happens when the days captain has more seniority than the 3rd watch captain? Does the 2nd watch capt go to 3rd then the 3rd to midnights?
Fuck you Don O'neil, you sold your soul to the devil and you sold out your fellow captains don't forget it wasn't long ago when you were one. Its a shame that this department chooses to srcrew with the leaders of district watch personnel. JPUD bit the hand that feeds him and I hope you goofs start waking up as for me I won't ask my people to do anything more than answer their jobs and back each other up.
Disgruntled Capt.
These exempts will sell out their own mother to keep their gold star. "Yes master, JFED, whatever you say. More missions? More contact cards, reduce homicides? Please don't put me on the hotseat at the CAR meetings. Please don't bust me back to Lt or Captain? Whatever you want" The sad part is from POs to Sergeants all the way up to the top everybody knows that this is the most self-serving, gutless bunch of cowards the CPD has ever seen.
Why anyone does anything is beyond me? I guess their is still a small percentage of coppers that still believe it will get better someday. The CPD is broken and it will take a lot to put back the pieces.
Awesome to see the great citizens of LA destroying their city after the Lakers win.
Look at the pictures and let's guess how many of them work? How many collect some form of government handout? How many of them are actually citizens of this country?

Dude... A CFD Captain is equivalent to a CPD Lieutenant, A CFD Division Marshall is equivalent to a CPD Captain.
A CPD Sergeant is equivalent to a CFD Lieutenant, didn't you ever notice there are no CFD Sergeants.
It is a bad thing that it was made a political appointment, but we do need someone competent in charge.

Screw Daley, Register and Vote. It's not just about the Captains.
NICE MOVE Management! Way to think this through. I am sure the money savings looks great on paper.
Seriously … Who cares if a bunch of Captains are getting bumped, moved or dumped? It only makes sense for the administration to get rid of Captains because the Lieutenants do the same thing for cheaper. Also the Captains are such a small minority, it’s one more appointed knuckle head in the chain of command. I say do away with them!
so what. does it really matter to us lowly blue shirts. we just show up, get the keys and radios and do our jobs. who gives a fuck.

Wow, if true, this sucks. Don't be so quick to jump on the 'who needs captains' bandwagon... if we didn't have captains, the watch would have a different watch commander with different expectations, consequences, and favorites. The rank of captain keeps everything on an even keel. Do I wish that i was that politically plugged in? yes. are there a lot of horrible captains? absolutely. But there are also a lot of really, really good ones, and its a shame to see 1. that they are being moved by j-fled and 2. that they are being thrown under the bus by everybody else. What a petty, angry, vindictive shithole this place has become thanks to EVERYBODY involved. Can't wait to f'n retire.

Did the taxpayers pay any money to this liar? Did the US attorney know about this before they brought this crazy case?
The sooner the captains take their pension, the faster the pension runs out of money. My guess is still 2022 before it is gone. And people worry about a retro check.!

The criminals are profiling....they need to be filling out those statistical study cards
Speaking of Captains, Last week the day after the Hawks victory, there was a RIOT at Clark and Addison. A plan 5 was called and along with a call to the 023 DC who happend to be the 3rd Watch WC (Acting Commander TL). Well apparently Acting DC TL could not be reached via phone etc.. so a call went out to Area 3 Dep.Chief BR who was contacted in the early am. Heard he was not very happy with 23rd Acting DC TL. In fact the classification was changed from RIOT to Major Disturbance. Looks like a certain Captain who wants so very much to be Exempt may stay right where he's at. This guy was also trying to escape any responsibility from the major fiasco on the night of the Hawks win in Wrigleyville by saying he "had good ideas but there were too many exempts with different ideas than his". We are soo screwed.
whatever feeling you might have for the rank, the SAD truth is that the City of Chicago is NOT addressing the manpower shortage!!!!!!!!!!! LESS CAPT. MEANS LESS PROMOTIONS.....so expect the movement from patrol up to be SSSSLLLLOOOOWWWW! this was a SLAP on the face to our department. WEIS/MASTERS....running the Police Department like a corporation. BUT JUST WAIT, RON HUBERMAN WILL COME BACK AND SAVE US!!!!!!!!!!!just keep your MINDS open, so you don't get shocked!!!
PAX 501
Volume 10 , Number 5
18 June 2010
Summer 2010
As Superintendent, one of my primary focuses has been emphasizing the importance of good supervision. A good supervisor acts as a leader and mentor to the individuals that he or she supervises, providing guidance and accountability as well as assisting in educating those who are less senior in rank or position. Critical to this is ensuring consistency among our supervisors.
Officers should expect to have consistency among those that supervise them; this provides for stronger relationships, better accountability, improved communication and, in the end, a better functioning organization. You should not have to walk into work and face a different – and sometimes unknown – supervisor, everyday.
The Department has previously utilized lieutenants from various units to fill-in as watch commanders at various times.
To minimize disruptions and ensure consistency, the Department will make adjustments and place our Captains on the watches and in the Districts where they are needed most. My intention is that this move will strengthen the leadership that is in place at the District level and allow us to better serve our officers, as well as the public.
All told, approximately ten Captains will remain in their District but have their watch changed; approximately ten
Captains will be detailed from their unit of assignment. This will provide Districts with the presence of a Commander or Watch Commander on every watch. This will ensure single-point accountability, consistency and best serve the Department.
By making this ninety day change, I hope to minimize the number of days Lieutenants are away from their Districts of assignment, allowing them to focus on the specific needs within the community they work.
The documentation that was previously distributed through the Bureau of Patrol regarding the distribution of Captains and the detail of Administrative Captains and Lieutenants was inaccurate and published without formal approval. For this, I apologize.
I recognize that some may view this as an inconvenience. The responsibilities of supervisors are varied, complex and often challenging; they serve a vital function for the men and women of the Department. I appreciate the work that our Captains do and I am certain that, recognizing the importance of being there for the officers in their Districts, they will accept the responsibility of their rank, and I am appreciative of them doing so.
Thank you for your service and, as always, be safe.
Jody P. Weis

By whose standards is it broken? This is the debacle that the stuttering prick envisioned all along!
From the point of view of the Daley Crime Family, it is infinitely cheaper and more desirable for the city to "pay out" on a line of duty death to the family of a slain police officer, than it is to pay millions of dollars over and over in lawsuits against the CPD and the City Of Chicago.
I hope no one thought Daley cares about any city employees... Well, at least employees that aren't also part of the Daley Crime Family!
I glad some of the captains need highway therapy they forgot where they came from . Its a shame they didnt move around a few more especially one captain in 012 he has gold starits so bad you can feel it ooze off of him, and no its not the captain on mids good egg leaves only one watch left since the other one got dumped to 010.

What else is she qualified to do? Not to work in a district? Imagine the damage she could do to a watch. A captain is not needed in personnel but clout says different.
Who are the least motivated POs on the department? The veteran bid guys on the 2nd watch (and not without good reason I would add, they've seen all the nonsense, been there done that, and know there's no percentage in it). 1st and 3rd watch are filled with young, aggressive, self-motivated officers. So, take the veteran, experienced, knowledgeable Cpts. off of days, where they are, if they're good guys, and many of them are, respected and are able to motivate the veterans to at least do something, and put them on 1st and 3rd. Then move a Lt. to days, a Lt. who no doubt has much less time (often less than the officers on 2nd watch), not to mention the lower rank, and pay them Cpts. pay to do the same job. Then thank those 2nd watch Cpts for motivating the veterans by dumping them off of their watches, where they've established good will with their people. And, don't give them any notice either. Thank them for their years of service by screwing up all of their plans for the summer, or their second jobs, or their family life, etc. Don't give them a period or two notice so they can make the adjustment. Don O'Neil, how do you look yourself in the mirror. Weis, Brust, Masters and any of you other non police idiots who came up with this, you're a disgrace. Chalk me up as a Cpt who got a lot out of a watch full of officers full into "de-policing" mode. And now chalk me up as a Cpt. who's going ask for absolutely nothing from my people. I don't care what they do or don't do. And I'm not going on the medical and I'm not going to retire, so you're stuck with an extremely bitter, disillusioned Cpt. for a long time to come.
"Do I wish that i was that politically plugged in? yes. are there a lot of horrible captains? absolutely. But there are also a lot of really, really good ones"
ALOT? THAT'S A STRETCH. PERHAPS WHEN THEY WERE A CIVIL SERVICE RANK. THE APPOINTED,ANOINTED ONES ARE WORTHLESS POS,THE WHOLE LOT OF THEM.

Check out the PAX 501--Never have seen anything like this in my 20 plus years.......
Don't know where else to post this but would like to say thank you to Beat 835. Today about 1635 when the storm hit, Bt. 835, well at least half of the car was out there clear debris by hand. At about 8300 S. Western, a tree fell almost blocking the roadway. In the rain, I saw an M/1 P/O, about 6ft 3, clearing this stuff up by hand. Just wanted to say thank you. Sure wished your F/4 partner would have helped but she stood there watching you.
Dont need second watch captains while we got district managers !
So, if this is true, then what happens when the days captain has more seniority than the 3rd watch captain? Does the 2nd watch capt go to 3rd then the 3rd to midnights?
++++++++++++++++++++++++
I don't think seniority matters, it's an exempt position. The supe can move them at his discretion, just like other exempts.
And while I am not sure how much this will make a difference, but for everyone saying"we don't need a Captain", be careful what you wish for. The watch could be thrown into disarray from the standpoint of who works what car, who works early cars and shit like that. There needs to be one person making those decisions, not different Lts doing things different all the time.

----------------
The above was emailed to everyone from the Superintendent of the Chicago Police Department. He claimed to have been in the military? He claimed to have ran a division of the FBI? This alone is the worst possible way to address a top management decision. Why did the entire police department need to be involved with a major internal decision that has totally humiliated an entire division and an incompetent Deputy Superintendent. You discipline or address things as this in private!
Now watch Assistant Superintendent Cuello back slide and distance herself from DD himself. Yes, he needs to be reminded that he does not run the entire Chicago Police Department and cannot continually micro manage and make decisions without any input from anyone except himself, but to direct a fucked up email to him and his incompetent entire unit is just not an example of leadership period!
Nice job Danny Boy, Harmon, Kappel, Iglinski, Zaragoza! You guys put a lot of work into screwing the department again!
The rank of captain keeps everything on an even keel. Do I wish that i was that politically plugged in? yes. are there a lot of horrible captains? absolutely. But there are also a lot of really, really good ones, and its a shame to see 1. that they are being moved by j-fled and 2. that they are being thrown under the bus by everybody else.
Oh give me a f&%cking break! They threw themselves and all of us under the bus by taking the BS no test rank. Even Keel?? Oh yeah, it would be anarchy without a bunch of egomaniacal clout hacks to keep all those actual career service rank Lts in line.
So I hear the Captain and Lieutenant movement order has been rescinded by Jimmy Jackson. That is what this department gets for taking the job of the movement of personnel, especially Lieutenants and Captains, from the 1st Deputy. We need a clearly identifiable 2nd in charge so we don't have to go through shit like this. We do not need an ASO who runs people and an AS who runs resources and training. What kind of shit is that! What were you thinking Weisel? Oh I forget, you never were the police, you had no idea regarding this department, you stupidly got rid of all top management, replaced them with mid level management who had no idea how to think other than within their inexperienced box, then you get what we have now!
A totally fucked up police department!

This guy was also trying to escape any responsibility from the major fiasco on the night of the Hawks win in Wrigleyville by saying he "had good ideas but there were too many exempts with different ideas than his".
But "TL" is the real police....yeah, he is, I heard him say so, he told me how he rides with his "guys" and goes out there and "does it" and there were at least at least two or three of his "guys" from the district there to back him up. When "TL" told them to tell me how he's the real deal they did, they said he was the best.
Dont need second watch captains while we got district managers !
Another postion to eliminate if they want to save money. District Manager? WTF do they do all day except come late and leave early.
Really, what is a District Manager's function?
The Captain rank is essential for a smooth flowing police department. This is just politicizing the last remnant of the CPD.
There is no way the watch can be effectively run with multiple lieutenants acting as Watch Commanders.
WATCH, this will destroy the Patrol Division nka the Bureau of Patrol.
Who are the least motivated POs on the department? The veteran bid guys on the 2nd watch (and not without good reason I would add, they've seen all the nonsense, been there done that, and know there's no percentage in it). 1st and 3rd watch are filled with young, aggressive, self-motivated officers.

And now chalk me up as a Cpt. who's going ask for absolutely nothing from my people. I don't care what they do or don't do. And I'm not going on the medical and I'm not going to retire, so you're stuck with an extremely bitter, disillusioned Cpt. for a long time to come.

Ok, I'm in.... I'm coming to work for YOU!
Who gives a shit about any captain on this fucking job. They can take their sorid lives and go fuck themselves. They all call each other and dispense favors to each other like russian whorehouse owners trading bitches. Jody is an imbicile and will fuck the department even more with this one but he is here to play fuck fuck anyway. All these captains have over 20 years on anyway. 20 and out. a relo and a finger. Can't these guys ever stop kissing ass? Say no to ass kissing and go to the beach already. And for you guys that are working yourselves to death for your keg drinking kids... a college diploma is not worth shit anymore. Send them to a trade school if you want them off your old lady's tits.

Seriously … Who cares if a bunch of Captains are getting bumped, moved or dumped? It only makes sense for the administration to get rid of Captains because the Lieutenants do the same thing for cheaper. Also the Captains are such a small minority, it’s one more appointed knuckle head in the chain of command. I say do away with them!
**********************************
Lt's do the same job cheaper now do they?? Funny, they fill out the yellow slip for Capt's pay every time they are the W/C!
Thanks for playing!
Out of grade is the white slip.
Helm is there to help Ladner?????????
Helm is as incompetent as they come...throw in Sgt. Cleveland and you now have 3 people promoted beyond their capabilities.....this department is a joke and Weis is the Court Jester.
As much as some captains suck, these never been the police mother fuckers are killing this job.

Capt., if you are one, you got the Don O'Neil part right. Really a piece of work, but he is looking for the civilian job after his police job so he can double dip.
Now, for the bitter part: suck it up. You have young P.O.s that need some help staying alive. Do your job.
....and 04:22 a.m. has my vote for the most cynical post ever. Please take his guns away!
I glad some of the captains need highway therapy they forgot where they came from . Its a shame they didnt move around a few more especially one captain in 012 he has gold starits so bad you can feel it ooze off of him, and no its not the captain on mids good egg leaves only one watch left since the other one got dumped to 010.
NONE of the Capts. in 012 put in for Commander when requested, so sorry bad theory
oh captain my captain---- looks like some of the bosses are seeing the light at the end of the tunnel--- if you ran a productive watch you still got the shaft so why ask your people to do anything but lay down like a flea bitten dog, woof woof.... now you know what it feels like to be a partolman again.... don't hate the clowns, just hate the circus.....

I'm glad you're impressed. Even though I don't think the woman issuing the tickets was in fact a cop, it was an embarrassment to our profession, and most definitely portrayed us in a negative light.
A BIG Thank You to CFD Truck 34. They responded when I observed a woman down with head injuries on Archer and Tripp yesterday. Fast to the scene and compassionate to the confused, disoriented woman.

I didn't even know that Mexicans like basketball!
Not only is this blog fun to read, it's educational!

do you mean that being reminded of the daley regime's unquenchable thirst for fleecing the public is somehow the Police Department's fault?

Give me a break, the poor captain has to go and work midnights or third watch! Who cares? They make big dough and will have a great pension! Political hacks in rare form. We do NOT need captains. It's a political rank that should be eliminated or reduced to one captain per district just like C.F.D. has one captain per house. Just like us, they have overlapping shifts where the captain sees everyone under his command and if a situation arises, he can handle it. Plain and simple!

===================================
The CFD does not have just 1 Captain per house. They have 1 Capt per apparatus. If there is an Engine & Truck in the house there are 2 Capt there. And if there are 3 pcs of equipement there, then they have 3 Capt. But there are assignned to different shifts.
