Hiring? Finally?
From the comments:
- City Hall announced the only new CPD Academy class for 2011 starts Oct 17th and consists of only 84 recruits.
Anyone have a link to this supposed story?

84? our manpower shortage is solved!!! thnx rahm
Now is that the only classfrom the list or are they hiring a class on a momth by month basis
84 recruits with how many retirements????
Sigh..One step forward, 200 steps back.
No longer true. This was recently put on hold. The class will prob start in 2012. -also theres talk of assigning po's to assist with property cases at areas. They would do dicks work except major cases. Just a discussion at this point by Supt. Detective promotions on hold til at least AFTER G8/Nato summit. List may get pulled down. -35th st guy
If you don't have clout, don't accept a position with this bullshit department! Due to our flawed complaint process you will become damaged goods no other law enforcement agency will want to touch! You have been warned.
The Academy is preparing for this class.
Ok, so wtf have all those people assigned to the academy been doing all this time?
I thought daley budgeted 200 for this year? I don't think a class of 116 went throught the academy but I could be wrong
84 Recruits that won't be on the streets until June 2012. What sense does that make?
How many are cadets? They were told that they would be first hired, and have already given years to this job.
let see, we lose 30-40 each month so being generous with the numbers in 3 months time we'll start subtracting the numbers of officers on the job. add that number to the already couple thousand we're short. you aint fooling nobody.
One new recruit already dropped out, is in academy for state police and was a no show for polygraph on Saturday.
I'll believe that hiring date and figure when they walk thru the doors of 1300 West.
Welcome aboard ladies and gentlemen.

Rahm has already stated he wants to reduce the size of cpd by attrition. Read the news stories from last week. Crime is down and he will relocate officers to high crime areas. Then reduce (layoff) the current size of the department by retirement. What happened to the teachers is nothing compared to what he will do to the CPD. Listen to what Ald beale is proposing.
How soon after the recruits get hired that the bids will open for Public Transportation? With 24 years on I should finally get my retirement spot.
empty the academy of instructors not doing anything ..

If there's any truth to this post of P.O.'s working property cases, DO NOT DO IT! If true, this is yet another way the city's attempting to circumvent the contract and avoid promoting. If they do attempt this, file a grievance and fill out an out of grade slip and get paid D-2a if you're backed into a corner. Hopefully the union will jump all over this, cuz this is just another Rahm/Mc Jagbag ploy to defeat the union.
Who's gonna train them? Wasnt the academy emptied out with rahm putting 1000 more police on the streets?

Preparing to ensure that the recruits receive the best possible training for this fine city. Lol But seriously they have been doing nothing but have been eating well.

To help cover the IODs from the G8/NATO protests
What happened to that little rumor by the 35th street know it all poster who posted a few months back that classes of 50 will start in Sept and classes of 50 will continue every month until Dec. I guess the 35th st. guy was wrong again. One of these days you will get one of your bullshit rumors correct.
Don't forget that Rahm is closing the doors on CTA Special Employment. Rahm took the CTA's money to fund new recruits and they still aren't going in the Academy.
Remember that next time you feel that thug sizing you up on the train. Rahm doesn't want Officers working their day off at straight time ( a bargain for the City). We won't be there to help.

YEARS OF LEAVING EARLY AND GOING TO SCHOOL SHHHHHUSH!
This was factual information 3 days ago.

===================================
So what does that mean. They budgeted 13,500 each year for the last 4 and the CPD hasn't had that many in at least that long. They are alway over budgeted in the numbers so that someone can steal money later for something else and say it was in the city budget.
Hey remember this is CHICAGO, nothing has changed but the names of the people stealing the money.
But one thing is the same, they are all DemocRATS

Thats right. I say the CPD will probably lose 600 men BEFORE these 84 get out of the academy. So it will be down more then 3000 before we get more.
Should be 2,084 just to bring us up to strength. Won't happen. More window dressing to make it look like Rahm is doing something. With 500 or more retiring every year that 84 is nothing. The public is still in a coma and think Richie Daley is still cornholing them. Wake up folks the Mighty Midget is now stroking you!
Drop in a bucket!
We have been losing over 400 Police Officers for the past 5 years with no slowdown in sight!
This goofball city is gonna have a lot of trouble next May!
Undermanned and Outgunned is NOT a smart way to run a city!
Glad we don't have the olympics!
Da Pelon
nice 84, here is a bandaide for the gash. No detective promotions till after G8. Doubt they will use P.O.'s from the list so they have experience with property cases, instead a bunch of clout heavy few will get fat from out of grade pay
Remember these words during the G8 riots recruits "REMAIN CALM"
hate to tell u this but patrol officer are doing dicks work already!
THEY CALL IT THE MISSION TEAM. THEY DO SURVEILLANCE AND FOLLOW UP AND EVEN GO OUT ON THE STREET AND CATCH BAD GUYS.
THEY ARE CARRIED ON THE DISTRICT MANPOWER SHEETS. THE OFFICERS R HAPPY TO WEAR JEANS AND PLAY DETECTIVE. THEY GET A TASTE OF SOME OVERTIME.
THE DETECTIVES THEN JUST TYPE UP REPORTS AND TAKE THE GLORY OF CLOSING THOSE MULTIPLES R NEW SUPE WANTS.
AND WHATS THE DEAL WITH SUPE MAC THINKING HE IS A HARD ASS YELLING ALL THE TIME.
IT SAD TO SEE JELLY FISH EXEMPTS WHO USED TO BE THE POLICE COWER IN FEAR.

...................................
they got screwed, told they would have priority hire for time worked. but they got put in the lottery. another great" city promise".
No money for new cops, but the City can find 60 million for "parents" to walk their "kids" to "school."

Put the dicks in uniform, in marked cars would show more presence and would be a valuable tool in knowing "car 54 where are you?"

President BUSH had CRAWFORD TEXAS his hometown taken care of,but in barries town guess not! Old 1 termer barry will be gone,welcome REPUBLICANS!
fools!
Perhaps the city's financial position is even worse than has been admitted to.
the cost of propping up all the pension plans is a huge number. many of these plans have invested in things of very dubious quality that may not be worth anywhere near what they are currently booked at.
the current crop of city employees may well have to take one in the shorts so that existing and near term retirees actually get their pensions.
it is somewhat like what has been going on with social security for a while. it is basically the same kind of Ponzi scheme as public pensions are and is no any more sustainable.
84? our manpower shortage is solved
-----------------------------------
84 is better than zero.
it appears the city has decided to reduce the size of the CPD to something it can afford. it has been going on for some time now without being admitted to. rahm is at least being more or less honest that it is being downsized.
84 hired? Big deal. I personally know more than that who have retired.
Hell there's more staff at the academy then trainees!
NYPD's Detective Bureau Organization
How the Detective Bureau is Organized
Four Detective Boroughs - Brooklyn, the Bronx, Manhattan and Queens - oversees 73 precinct squads.
Local squad detectives work closely with patrol officers in their precincts to provide an immediate investigative response to crimes and incidents. (Patrol Borough Staten Island supervises its own Detective Operations, which oversees detective squads in each of that borough's three police precincts).
Specialized borough squads - homicide, robbery and special victims - bolster the efforts of local squads, especially by identifying and investigating pattern crimes. The Detective Bureau also staffs Robbery Apprehension Modules, known as RAMs, in each precinct; these units are charged with further reducing crimes of forcible theft.
Five specialized Detective Bureau divisions provide investigators in the field with a vast and diverse array of technical expertise. There is an unlimited combination of specialized units that will assist in any homicide or other major investigation.
This is what is coming. We are going to go to the NYPD style. Wait and see.
Atleast it's 84 more paying into the pension
