Special Meeting
Invite only according to the rumor:
- Unbelievable!!! Supposedly the A.S. [the "bartender] and the Superintendent's wife are hosting an invitation only event [...] for female police to have a meet and greet with female exempts. Only the "most exceptional" females with the "most potential" have been allowed to be invited. I guess if you are a stand up broad working the street you do not qualify. I wonder if this was a brain fart from the girls in the policy group?
We don't even know where to begin with this one. We will say that the crude innuendos that started popping up at the first mention of this will be summarily deleted as per policy.
But really? Having "the bartender," who's most famous accomplishment to date is having dope and illegal guns being stored in her condo is the person you want setting an example to any cop? We're pretty sure there are better examples, but we guess it depends on the lesson they are trying to teach. Obviously, hard effort and good police work aren't it.

What is the purpose of this "meeting?"
I am waiting for the Supt. and Peterson to have a meeting of M/2 officers.
Not enough viable women, not enough viable hispanics, not enough viable african americans; hence the 'Star Search.' Looks like I'm about to get lapped again. With the change in city politics underway, the clear lines of succession will blur and yield some stunning moves. I think we could see another 35th street decapitation as the J-Fled regime lame-duckwalks out of here.
What strong message is that sending to all of the hard working females on the street? That only a select few with clout are considered for future promotions? This is an absolute slap in the face to every female. An example of typical clout bullshit. Weiss has no idea how to lead. From this stupid idea to the smart answers on the 501 blog. Whats he thinking? Or what is the policy group thinking?
Will the so-called "exceptionable" individuals be all those ladies who work in CAPS and inside positions? Especially those fortunate to be so well qualified to be detailed or assigned to 35th Street.
What about those women who work midnights on the street in districts. Will then be overlooked again?
AMAZING
SCC, you can delete this if you want.
I have a question. Name me a good female exempt on this job?????? I cannot think of any. I have a hard time thinking of any decent females who are Lts or Captains. Most of the female Captains I can think of are medical abusers or just plain horrible
Lets call a spade a spade. The majority of females on this job ride a desk. I have worked all over this city and the vast majority of the time when I see a squad car there are males in the car. Go to any desk on any watch in any district and I can tell you what the majority will be, Females! Go to the office staff in any dist, unit, or headquarters and the overpaid secretaries dressed as Police Officers will be female. Do I have to mention the CAPS office??? More cowardly females hiding in that office.
I have no problem with women who can do the job or at least try. There are plenty of men on the street who have no clue and are cowards.
This meeting is just a show to add more women to management ranks who don't deserve and certainly haven't earned it.
To the working females on the street I apologize. I respect what you do and wish you the best.
i say that's bs
Sounds like bartender B is trying to garner support from barbie and her band of $&);: and all females. Maybe calls to their peeps to keep B near tge top and/or put her at the top when the fledster's services are no longer required.
I'm sure there will be hints of retention in spots and future promotion.
Is penny the key note speaker?
If this is on city money keep us updated. I will happily file a lawsuit.
Remember when she wanted "Mo pod" to go mobile? That was her baby. Go go Mo Pod!!
Whenever the City of Chicago uses such obscure and subjective terminology such as "most exceptional" and "most potential" without well-defined written criteria, it means but one factor: "CLOUT". The Chicago Way.
Leroy Martin hosted a " survivors lunch" for all exempts each Christmas season at the Conrad Hilton. The exempts had to wear their dress uniform with a bow tie. He also had about a dozen police women from the buildings serving as hostesses. They escorted the exempts to their seats, took the coats of wives and got the bosses their drinks. They all had to wear red dresses for the occasion. In short, they were free waitresses. The police women were recruited from those working in the HQ bldg. The photos of these police women in their lovely red dresses were posted in the lobby along with the party photos which were taken, as always, by the crime lab. I was disgusted then at what some people will do to themselves just to keep a position. I knew some of these officers and I asked them why they did this? Their reply was to "volunteer" for this humiliating job or be transfered back to the field. This continued until the Sun Times wrote a story on this party and the fact the city money paid for the party.As I recall, 50 grand was the price.
Granted, it's good to spend time with the next generation of women in the ranks and reflect on all the compromises I had to make back in the day to get ahead...
And over the years, I've always taken under my wing the handsome young ladies (who reminded me of when I was an officer working the beat for three periods) and tried to explain the back-braking work I went through...
But don't think for a minute that having a brain alone got me to a command-level rank.
I learned SO MUCH from all those Sgts and Lts and Capts and Commanders and Deputies and Chiefs and Supts...my head is spinning...never underestimate the power of being connected to a heavy dude.
G*d bless Chuckles and Phat Phil, but thanks be unto Weis for dumping me back to Captain so I wouldn't have to do furlough days and take a pay cut in my autumn years.
Anyone see my Impala?

Commander Judith Martin of 013th is a hard working exempt who never worked the desk or had an inside position and is not a medical roll abuser.
Any female Officer that attends should be ashamed of themselves
I work for a female Capt on 1st watch in 022. She makes working midnights somewhat bearable. Even though she achieved the rank via a law suite I would put her in the same category of many of the tested Captains I've worked for years ago. I would love to see her make exempt, I know people would love her and she leads by example. She is a "prince" of a boss.
Isn't that some sort of discrimination?

I just want to say that when "Aunt Bea" was a Commander in 010, she was an EXCELLENT boss. She did nothing but try to take care of the working Police. Anything brought to her attention was handled with the best intention for the Officers. Awards were plenty, no crazy b.s. that I hear about hear on the blog from other Commanders.
Also the current Commander of 013 was exceptional as a Captain and is still the same as a Commander. I would work for these two female bosses any day. Shit happens. You cant run an adult kids life. I sure am glad none of us are held accountable for our adult relatives actions because we would all be getting F*cked over for someone/something. I am not female.
I am not a suck up. I just know of alot of male bosses that are not worthy of any type of leadership and would never willingly work for them (again).
Give me a supportive boss and I will show you a crew not afraid to work. I know having these types of parties are b.s. I just want to know when the Departments party for white male Officers is going to happen?
Parties or "Special Meetings" for only a Male Caucasian American Club? (Not everyones Irish) That wouldnt go over well would it?
post some photos of the police waitress , some were probably promoted before they retired
will jfled and company be performing as the we gotta run dancers for the female officers
I am a female officer who works the street, and I think this rumor is an insult to ALL hard working PO's!
why not ? that is the way this department works. the revrunds, greeks, irish, big bosses at headquarters, etc... all have special meetings to ensure hireing and promotion of their people.
ANYONE ON CPD WHO THINKS HARD WORK AND JOB KNOWLEDGE IS THE PATH TO PROMOTION IS A COMPLETE IDIOT !
I don't have a problem with helping out my friends on this job. Who else can you trust other than someone you have spent time with and had some common experiences with. My concern is that the upper eschalon of this Department is now shopping around for friends, because they dont have any, because they never did a thing. So what a woman wants to promote a woman. A white dude a white dude and a black dud a black dude. The FOP gave them the 20%, dont blame anyone else. If I get invited can i bring my scented candles to sell?
Captain Lipman is an incredible boss! She is fair and old school police. She knows what its like to be out here! I know she is not liked by all because if you are a lazy dog ass copper she Will get on your case! This is why she is most appreciated by the working police. We are most fortunate to have her.
I am in total agreement with the comments of 9/29/2010 08:22A.M.

I def agree with you!!!!
It's only a glorified tupperware party...geez
Commander Judith Martin of 013th is a hard working exempt who never worked the desk or had an inside position .......
You are a dumb mf'er. Martin has always been taken care of especially while she was at 35th street working for a previous Sup't domestic violence program. She was only a Lt or Capt for a short time and promoted by our bartending asst. sup't because they were friends that worked together in 10. On top of that, how hard does anyone work in a district like 13. More like a vacation spot compared to places we work in. How is that not being taken care of?? Go back in your hole, you troll.
This is an absolute slap in the face to every female
**************
You are right, but most of what this administration, especially JW is doing is SLAPPING US ALL IN THE FACE.

Hi Judy thanks for visiting now go back home!
Can they do this? Seems like it violates some type of civil rights or fair labor law
i feel discriminated against M/2/40
The negative writers on this blog that slam A.S. Bea Cuello, do not know her. You have never meet her and know nothing about what she has done on this job. Its obvious when you write negative comments about her. When r u ever going to respect the women who you work side by side with everyday, that would save your life in a hot minute, and never think twice about it. We are all BLUE and PROUD. RESPECT EACH OTHER PLEASE.

They have it all the time it's called the Policy Group Meeting

Not so sure about that, word is KB is all alone in the WTA these days.
And what is the criteria to be invited to this meeting? I've never worked inside so I know my name won't be thrown around. I know where I'll be the night of the party. Working hard on the streets...unnoticed. They might as well be standing there sucker punching the rest of the hard working street women as we are locking up some gun-toting thug.

The J-Fled administration has nothing on the Obama administration. The rats, sensing the inevitable, will desert the sinking ship.
I agree with those who commented about Capt. Lipman. A great boss. And as far as that law suit, she stood up to that piece of shit commander of 002 who tried pulling some racist shit and when that happened, the city retaliated against her and a couple of other female bosses. That is what the settlement was for. They didn't find in her favor for the original grievance against Perry. Also I work for Capt. Helm now. Another great boss to work for. Don't know why she got dumped but I'll bet it was for standing up for herself. And shows no bitterness.
I have a question where is the 13th district? Not sure if I have seen that place yet.
If you really have anything negative to say about Commander Martin in the 013th district, hold your breath! She's a wonderful boss. I work in 013.
however, there are two female bosses, Capt. Ann Egan and Sgt. Maher who were both dumped by Weiss and I got to tell you...boy oh boy....they really need to retire.. FAST!!!!!!! and what the heck, take Lt. Stone with you Ladies :-)
Last great watch commander we had was Capt. Elmer....the good old days mate :-(
To the working females on the street I apologize. I respect what you do and wish you the best.
I can say we are here, I have 27 years on the street, in the Ghetto. However I'm on days because I can bid. yet some of you Young bloods want to change that and not pay your dues.
Captain Lipman is an incredible boss! She is fair and old school police. She knows what its like to be out here! I know she is not liked by all because if you are a lazy dog ass copper she Will get on your case!
So she is a BULLY_ JUST like a male white shirt Bully- Ryan
Don't know why she got dumped but I'll bet it was for standing up for herself. And shows no bitterness.
She is a Caption! why would she someone made her caption???????? she didn't take any test???????
you need to get off the board.
I would love to see her make exempt, I know people would love her and she leads by example. She is a "prince" of a boss.
That would be "princess" would it not?

Did you just get off probation?

I just love to listen to all these 013 district "warriors" ramble on what a great boss Elmer was. If he was so good and the current ones in 013 are so bad, why don't you transfer into 021? And better yet,if you are such a great police officer why didn't he take you with him or ask you to transfer into 021? Stop whining about the white shirts in 013. All they ask us to do is our jobs, nothing less, nothing more. Stop eating your lunch at the desk, stop staying down for an hour or longer on simple 10 minute jobs etc. and you will see that life in 013 isn't bad at all. The people you mentioned may not win the award for Mr. or Ms. Congeniality of the year award but they usually do not bother anybody but instead simply ask you to do what you are supposed to do. We could do far worse than those you mentioned. Do you remember Groucho? Or DH? Want those two back? My God man, grow up!

She is a caption???? is that a new rank? Is it above or below Captain?
All the negative posts about women on the job makes me wonder. No one could possibly know all the women on the job. It just seems that some men have a problem with women. A very strange and diagnosable problem. They just hate women, period. 20 years ago there were a lot more woman haters, now there are less, but I see they are still there.
