Captains Sell Out Again
No idea what they got for their vote, but it looks like they've managed to screw lieutenants, sergeants and police officers from ever earning Out-of-Grade pay again.
They also sold out all the promotion lists since the city isn't going to promote to fill vacancies anymore to save themselves money. They can just order people to work as Acting Desk Sergeants, Acting FTO's, "Station Supervisors" (formerly Watch Commanders) and lord knows what else.
Who's got the scoop on this one?

it wouldnt suprise me one bit that them jag offs sold everyone out!!
And the thing of it is - How many Captains are there? 45? maybe.
This tiny selfish group just sold out and stuck it up 10,000 fellow officer's ass. Way to go boss. What bullshit.
I call BS! No one would break the brotherhood policemen have no matter what rank they are. We are all blue and unified forever. This has never been a "me me me" department and never will be. There is no way a group of policemen would seek to get special benefits at the expense of the others. We all look out for each other. I can see the captins making sacrifices to help strengthen the others below them, but being selfish does not sound like the CPD. This department will never be divided, so stop spreading silly rumors.
A sellout is someone that receives compensation. The captains received nothing for this..
Highlights of the Letter of Memorandum:
The XO shall work either the existing 4 and 2 schedule with rotating days off based on operational needs or an 8.5 hour day with a fixed day off group. (Sounds ambiguous for those that have families and obligations that require a fixed schedule.)
XO will be offered the opportunity to work out of grade as DC only when DC absence will exceed 5 consecutive workdays.(DCs don't take more than 5 working days consecutively so they gave up right to out of grade pay.)
XO in District Law Enforcement will typically work a watch when the Distric Commander is not present. However, it is acknowledged that operational needs may from time to time or unit to unit require the EO work days. (Typically means what?) (Gave up the right to work steady watch, subject to changing watches day to day or week to week, good luck when you have a side job or family plans scheduled)
The Department, including the Superintendent, specifically acknowledge and agree that the Captain rank shall be preserved and maintained. (Could this be more vague)
This is what happens when the rank is filled with Meritorious and Clout. They are promised inspector positions and future consideration for DC and sold themselves out.
The letter of memorandum will not stand, despite the Captains consent. They will get moved and shuffled but the letter will not stand the legal challenge.
The letter states: Implementation of the Executive Officer assignment will result in the dissolution of teh Watch Commander as a separate and discrete assignment. There will no longer be an individual assigned as Watch Commander: duties and responsibilities formerly performed by the Watch Commander will be absorbed by the district Commander and Executive Officer or will go unperformed on a specific watch or will be pushed down the supervisory chain of command and divided amongst multiple supervisors as appropriate.
Sorry City and Captains PBPA, you cannot negotiate away a rank that is recognized in other union contracts.
Anyone performing a WC duty will file grievances for out of grade pay, and the city will pay both Sergeants and Lieutenants.
Thanks for the extra cash.
Promotions..............Poleeese!!!!!
There is little to no chance for advancement on this Dept.
Way to build moral, Garry.
The very people who are supposed to be leading the patrol division (Captains) have just sold out their own LT, SGT and Patrolmen. Who do they expect to lead? Nobody cares anymore, if you bite the hand that feeds you eventually it will bite back. Captains sold everyone out and now nobody respects them anymore. In the old days, long before our new savior McLiar was in place, if you’re Captain asked for something most would perform. All captains are now is overpaid Lieutenants.
One big mistake this "NEW" administration is making is alienating its supervisory ranks.

Captains are such traitors to themselves and everybody else!!
Years ago, Capt, Harry "The Hat" Hohm sold out his fellow Captains in exchange for becoming a Commander himself. As a result of his actions, the rank of Captain is no longer a career service rank....but he retired a Commander, so what does he care about that?
It's nice to see that Captains are still so short-sighted and easy to bribe that they will give up everything for what they consider their own self interests.

Congratulations on your retirement! We are going to miss you tremendously on the watch. Enjoy the farm and the horses.
The vote was 23 yes votes- and 20 no votes. Most of the no votes were adamantly NO!! Many behind the scenes promises to select captains to vote yes. When the electorate is so small it doesn't take much to swing a few votes and win the decision. This is a disaster in the making. By May 2012, the Department will be in utter chaos.
They are not "real captains" anyway, so they could never think for themselves...
All this shit started with Daley. He had bosses shaking in their boots for years. Now Racoon Eyes does the same thing.
its good to save the tax payers money. the money can be used for the obamas vacation.she can play in the sand, and work on a tan. he gets to stay in dc and be with his true love, and i dont mean golf.
Oh im sorry order me to work out of grade for no pay...I order you to blow me ....KMA club
What did you expect? Every single Captain in this city is a no good meritorious political hack. They only care about themselves period. Every single one of them think they deserve better than their meritorious Capt. position in that somehow they were screwed by taking it. Lt. is the last true rank left in the Dept. and that one has it's meritorious hacks also.
THERE IS SO FEW IT AN EASY BRIBE.
MOST ARE CLOSE TO RETIREMENT AND REALLY DONT CARE ABOUT THE FALLOUT FOR THERE LACK OF A UNION.
THE FOP SHOULD REALLY LOOK INTO NOT ALLOWING THEM IN THE FOP LODGE 7.
THEY R MANAGEMENT. LET THE CITY BACK THEM IN A SHOOTING OR A FEDERAL LAWSUIT.
OR MAY BE DUES SHOULD BE BASED ON RANK!!!
LT'S AND ABOVE SHOULD PAY A PREMIUM. WHAT WOULD THEY DO QUIT THE FOP.
BUT MIKEY SHIELDS WORRIED ABOUT STEPHANIE NEELY DRIVING AROUND IN A UNMARKED.
Name those who voted yes so we can all show them the proper respect when they are the XO, or now to be known as the Xanadu Optimist, since the promise is to make their dream of gold come true. Post the names of the chumps who voted yes so we can treat them accordingly- As of now the XO can kiss my ass, they will be treated like the commander's errand boys and the civilian secretary they have voted to become.
Who's surprised here? The cocksuckers that be put all those traitors on MIDNIGHTS for the last year... now they tell them they can have DAYS if they fuck over the rest of the department.
Are you really surprised these traitors sold their souls and ours for a fucking time change?
I call BS. We still have a contract. Regardless of what the Captains vote on, they have no say with regards to our contract. Nor do they have a say with regards to the Sgt. Or Lt. Contracts. That being said, I have no doubt most of them would sell us or anybody else out to benefit themselves. That is just the way CPD is.
As long as the contract for PO's is ineffect the Captains can stand on their head for all I care you still get out of grade pay! It's in our contract!
Just stay in the conflict zone you suckers!
All these guys had to do was stay strong for a few months and remind the city that any changes that were in the "XO" order cocnerning out of grade pay and/or acting up would be discussed at the negotiation table in June. That's all they had to do but obviously 23 of those dickheads can't think right.

You wont be ordered to work out of grade, you will be ordered to do what will now be in your job description. Thats the issue they are we writing all the orders changing our jobs descriptions, its an end around the contract-where are the unions? How can this be considered a fair labor practice. First we receive a contractual right, then the city takes it away by changing its name?
Attention all Officers with less than 10 years . 100 % of captains are appointed , 90 % never passed a detective , sergeant or lieutenant test . Remember the captains and current command exempts are good guys , just ask them . Sad part is many of current blue shirts , assigned to district patrol scored higher on sergeants exam but were left behind for the political chosen few .
The 20 no votes are probably assigned to cushy districts , with a desk crew that does their work .
Field Lieutenant was the Best job on CPD , now became the worst .
Good luck to all Patrol Officers that are 100 out on sgt list and sgts that are close on lt list .
Look in the mirror and I'll bet you see a Better person than the merit , he's a good guy , bosses that have your well deserved promotion .

I thought that was our mayor?
The lieutenants, sergeants and patrol officers all have contracts, which the City must comply with.
The City cannot change the contracts without the approval of the other side. If they attempt to do so then "unfair labor" charges can be filed and it goes either to arbitration or to the Illinois Labor Board.
The unions, other than the Captain's, need to stick together and not cave.
Shameless WHORES!
12:33 AM:
Unless you are being totally sarcastic, pass the bong.
Years ago the Captains sold everyone out for $15,000 each to make the rank of Captain exempt. Then they sold us out for the random breath tests to go with the urine tests and the 2% raise to keep from adding testing to make rank. Now this.
NO Officer could be forced to perform a desk duty function.
23 to 20 , ya have to give the 23 credit for cutting a good deal for themselves . A few will probably be exempt command staff in the next year or two , another dozen will be assigned to second watch in a unit , with less manpower , responsibility and shorter hours .
Not bad for over $ 125,000 a year,45 min a day free comp time and $10,000 in cash , free overtime quarterly checks .
Lieutenants , many who didn't want to be captains /watch commanders got it stuck to them . Many day time lts will lose their spots to our new XO Merit promoted captains.

Ya, right. Refuse a direct order and see what happens to you, wise guy. Every union arbitrator will tell you obey first and grieve second. To refuse a direct order can cost you your job.
What do you expect from career merits the likes of a Carothers, Graeber, Skahill, etc, etc, etc.
I ask, "how do they have a sergeant work as WC and not pay him out of grade?" and the answer I get is that there will no longer be WC but XO...What is the F-ing difference? So use semantics to change the job description and now you don't have to honor the contract? What is point in having a contract if these assholes can change the wording in order to avoid the damn thing?
Don O'Niell is running around the building telling everyone how he got these jagoffs to go along with this stupid idea. Fast track to a gold star, bullshit. He is already telling people that almost none of the "Executive Officers" will ever become commanders. These captains are sellouts just like O'Niell was to get his spot. Merry Christmas you cowards!
event numbers, diserpsals, anovs, curfews, deployment boxes = real policing. notttttttttttttt
The 23 that voted yes all must be French war hereos. Surrender instead of fight. Not one testical between the 23.
I heard from one of the captains that the city met with them and told them if you don't vote this change we are gonna basically put you all on midnites kill your bids and get rid of 10 of you, so sell out isn't proper those. Itches got pimped
I am a district sergeant.
I'll tell you what.
You make me the "Station Supervisor" with no "out of grade" pay.
You COCK SUCKERS in city administration will see the quality that I will give you.
"but it looks like they've managed to screw lieutenants, sergeants and police officers from ever earning Out-of-Grade pay again."
--------------
So what is the factor that will keep everyone else from getting out of grade.
What are the details to this? How can the Capt club change anything in the LT, Sgt and PO contracts? All these new titles, with no out of grade, will be grieved. What did the Capts do to change this?
Looks like 23 triple merit captains decided that working week ends , 1st and 3rd watch like the non clouted patrolman , sergeants and lieutenants didn't fit with family life.
Now the unqualified are again rewarded with a better position than us peons without political clout .
The 20 No votes are likely assigned to good districts and come and go as they please .
Come late , leave early types that will now be moved to busy areas districts while the yes voters are rewarded .
The command staff promoted from captain rank in the near future are the sell outs .
Who was captain that sold out union and promoted to commander of mlas . Unit of 12 officers .
Any respect I had for the capt rank has now turned to disdain.
As a previous poster stated, when a good capt or boss came into roll call and said they needed something the troops would go out get it. But if Ur a shitty boss and don't take care of Ur own troops an then come into roll call asking for numbers, guess what, u can fuck off.
this job has been a one way street for a long time, from the supt to the ppo. Thats one of the reasons it has sucked for a long time.
Morons like bubble head and hootie pushed for this because they could never get promoted again so they are looking for more control, a car and a blackberry. Be careful what you wish for, it will bite you in the ass, and we will be laughing as we walk by you.
What's the surprise here? Years ago the Captains sold out for $17,000 to eliminate the exam and make the captain promotion "meritorious." The result is that every unqualified political hack was promoted while highly qualified non-political lieutenants were pushed to the side. What a disgrace this Department has become.

I don't know how this would effect out of grade for acting desk sgt. etc. Just because the Capt.'s sold out doesn't mean that we've all sold out.
Hey Hoot, from all the PO's who work out of grade as desk sgts., from the 1100 sergeants and 200 lts., a BIG F--K YOU! You would have sold out your mother to get off of midnights. You are all talk until you have to prove yourself.
By the vote total , there are at least 43 triple promoted merit captains . Is anyone surprised of the sell out ?
How many are over 60?
This will push captains over 60 to retire , that's what the ballerino really wants . Don't you think his uncle , retired cpd told him how useless the captain rank is.
Every blue shirt with 2 + years knows the Desk Sgt runs the Watch.
SCC get the list out! who were the 23 that voted yes?
90% of captains are clout heavy but have too much baggage to make commander. its a consolation prize for clout heavy fuck ups.
the great mentors of the patrol division sold out! i'm shocked!

Congratulations Captain DeLaTorre on your retirement. Thank you for all your help. You will be sorely missed!
You know that degenerate gambling clown from 007 was 1 of the 23
we forget we sold THE recruits out and extended the probation period to 18 months instead of a year!

I guess you don't know captain bubblehead in 007.
The vote does not matter at all. The ruling will be thrown out when it is grieved.
Captains want to be Inspectors .
I retired 10 years ago and Inspectors were Lieutenants .
Sounds like the new merit clouted rank of captain are afraid of responsibility .
This is exactly what happens when cpd promotes officers that aren't qualified .
Next the xo's will want the court sergeant jobs .
They are all nice guys and gals , just unable to pass a test.
captain delousy of the 017 district will be leaving next month and it can't come quick enough--- we bought her a 2 man pup tent for her retirement party so she can stuff all her paper ass suckasses inside with her--- they love to tell war stories together about all those felony parkers and contact cards they write everyday--- bye bye dd and you will be remembered as one of the most useless dumb bosses ever to occupy a watch commanders office--- your job as a wal mart greeter awaits you--- take the coo coo on 05 and the pumpkin head traffic wizard with you as well before they get someone killed....
You all know bubble head from 7 sold his soul to pay off some gambling debt.
What is the sell out? alot of posts but not one fact. as watch rep who cares, i've been on a lousy beat car for 20 years and guess what, a patrolmans duties have not changed. I do what i want when i want and how i want. i dont care who the watch commander is. so i dont understand why everyone is so upset over something that does not effect us. no leadership equals no activity. besides i thought when you made the rank of capt you were suppose to stay a watch commander and not get exempt rank.
i bet that goofy looking captain in 001 nagode voted yes cause he is a goofball
Seriously, if you think the "vote" was binding or had any other type of impact, you are nuts. The city, as usual is going to implement what they want, when they want, and they can do it without violating any contracts, just read them for a change.
The one thing they they always do succeed at is getting us pitted against each other.
I work at the Airport. Will they replace me with a candidate from Universal Security?
Many behind the scenes promises to select captains to vote yes.

this shit has been going on in Forensics for a while forcing ets to do the job of the crime lab but not paying them out of grade its all a scam
I haven't had any respect for the rank of Captain since Quaid retired.
Look at Sergeant's website. They lost their grievance reguarding 5th period furloughs. Have a feeling it will Affect us all. Arbitrator Benn. Surprised this hasn't been mentioned anywhere...
We all kind of knew the majority of the Captains were ball-less due to the fact they were all appointed, but I think the city's in for a fight against the lieutenants and sergeants. I've been a sergeant (legit) for 15 years and have been in a district my entire 25+ year career, and I can tell you the lieutenants and sergeants I talk to are digging their heels in. At least in our ranks, there are a majority of legit promoted officers, whereas at the Captain rank, they were ALL appointed and therefore are beholden to the powers that be. I know for a fact the 2 Captains in my district were vehemently opposed to this deal, but then again the vast majority of their careers were in patrol.
We need to stand together!
This is not the time to break ranks.
Please be safe out there!
I say we do not negotiate for them anymore. The supervisors as a whole sold us out on the last contract. Fuck them and their me too clause.
.....it wouldnt suprise me one bit that them jag offs sold everyone out!!.....
I don't think there are any Legit Captains left, all are now Merit Hacks that would Suck Start a Harley for that Badge!
OT: LT MB.
Heard in the halls of the new Public Safety HQ Building.
Any truth?
Allegedly, LT. MB has been quietly promoted to the rank of Captain in a class of 1.
And newly-promoted CPT. MB will supposedly, once again, command the News Affairs unit to replace Sarah Hamilton, who is leaving CPD to replace Chris Mather as Mayor Emanuel's Communications Director.
Mather's unexpectedly resigned her post, effective 31 December 2011, but is not "expected" to return to City Hall after today. The City Hall welcome/admit list no longer contains her name.
People jumping the City Hall ship after only 7 months? Hmmmmm?
12/15/2011 06:43:00 PM
Wow, a class of one. Must have been really deserving of that promotion.
12/16/2011 12:39:00 AM
Did this really happen???
Well if captains will be judged for promotion based on how well they lead easy solution. Don't do anything that counts towards the index. Come in with zeros if the capt is an asshole. The best part is there is nothing they can do to you as long as you do your job. Time due is already denied regularly so what do you have to lose. There is power in numbers and pos outnumber all supervisors activity put totgether. Let the captain go write his own tickets.
The Captains are appointed they are not a career service rank, they gave that up a long time ago. The Captains are now just another group of yes men/women.
The time was for better or worse the captains would speak their mind and do what was best in most cases and the worse that could happen was a transfer not so now.
Could someone please explain the chain of command to me if there is not W/C? I foresee arrestees being unable to be processed and released. I see a big, fat, clusterfuck ahead. How can they order you to do a job you're not qualified for (i.e., trained to do?)
Who is the ranking officer going to be? Who is ultimately responsible for running the watch?
If they sre saying things can't get done on a watch due to the lack of appropriate command, that the next watch will address the issue?
I'm so confused.
I keep telling you guys that contracts and things in writing don't mean anything here.
The latest example is the city contract with that restaurant in Millennial park next to the beam.
They put them in a trick-bag.
The people running the place and taking the initial risk thought they had a sweet twenty year lease deal with the city.
Now they're getting kicked out.
The clouted 'professional courtesy' that the restaurant people there praised and loved has turned against them and now they are on the other side of the clout and hate it.
It's not about fairness and honoring your word. No, it's about who you can scam and rape.
Watch as mayoral jihad is launched on these working people that thought they had a contract, and that your word is your bond as the city inspectors and the mayors personal army of 10,000 descend to "just do their jobs" for fear of losing their paychecks.
Live by the sword, die by the sword. When you endorse and back these actions just remember that the exact same tactics will be used on your very own contracts as well. Why not? They got away with it here and who knows where else.
Pick and choose. The parking meter contract we're told cannot be touched and the restaurant contract with the park district is fair game and can be cancelled. See how it works? Pick and choose. You get a tax break and you over there don't.

The E/Ts we have these days shouldn't worry about out of grade. The majority of them couldn't find their hands in front of their faces, so they compliment the useless crime lab quite well.

Ben gave a ruling.. and it was like an early christmas gift. He granted the city the right to cancel 5B but in return the city had to give two extra summer segments. Who cares about 5B when you are given an extra 7B and 8B. I think that i speak for most Sgts, when i say I would take this deal every year if I could.

we usually have a decent lt acting as the wc anyway
Yeah, let's see how many of us have the balls and self respect to let the captains know exactly what we think of them. I can see the line us kiss asses forming now. Bring them all Christmas gifts and tell them how great they are and what a privilege it is/was to work for them.
They're a bunch of lazy selfish punks who screwed us all out of a career service rank and now they're screwing everyone over in perpetuity so they could stick someone else with the job they asked for. Asked their chinaman for, of course as they didn't have to take any promotional exam. F&%K them, F%$K Rahm and F%$K that arrogant drunk McTRASH as well.
Don't cry for the Park Grill, all the investors are connected.

I haven't had any respect for the rank of Captain since Quaid retired.

Retired? I thought he got eaten by that shark.......
How about the Supts drivers, egos as large as Lake Michigan, they don't even wave or acknowledge you. But, what goes around, comes around!

Quaid was okay. But remeber he learned from the best! Last word in real captains was the crew from 014 through the early Nineteen-nineties!
One of the supt's drivers/bodyguard had a prisoner escape from the 023 tac office a few yrs ago. A couple of POs on the incident car chased the prisoner down and caught him a block away and brought the prisoner back. The driver never knew that prisoner was missing until he was brought back. True story.
Shocking! Simply shocking!
85 comments about an appointed rank that makes 6 figures for reading a C.O Book?
Glad to see we got our priorities in order...

Yeah, it's so unimportant that YOU felt the need to be number 86.
What exactly will the function be of the new Executive Officers (Captains)? If the lieutenants are doing the Watch Commander's job now for free, what exactly will the XO be doing? The Xo will be kissing DC butt.
the rank of merit captain is a
joke m most were merit sgt and lt that were assigned to units
as soon as they found out the work involved as wc and working 1st & 3rd watch without weekends off they began ass kissing to become unit co's and inspectors
so is anyone surprised that they sold out for a position with less responsibility ?
let's hope rahmbo takes away the 45 minute a day comp time and !0,000 a year in supervisors quarterly pay checks , remember they get paid time and a half when they work overtime
Not the first time they sold out. The last time they collected thousands some over 10k. Well if they rewrite the orders they still have to meet with the other unions. Sgts will be out of grade doing Lts job.
xo's will be thanking the LOrd that daley and rahm hired two outsiders for police superintendent
captains and exempts are pulling the wool over these fools eyes
commander of 12 in mlas fooled jfled and mcgoof tried it with phil cline and failed
take the coo coo on 05 and the pumpkin head traffic wizard with you as well before they get someone killed....

You're going to have to be more specific...
as a sgt i welcome the change
as desk sgt 's we do work of capt for sgt pay , i'll gladly work out of grade for lt pay
just hope sgt union can make out of grade for us pensionable
it's a win win for sgt rank
Got news for you, Sarge. You're going to be doing all of the work of the watch commander, not just approving arrest reports. Then, you'll find out just how much the WC does. And, you'll be doing more, shouldering a ton more responsibility, but you still won't be getting out of grade.
Melissa Stratton sent from city hall as the replacement News Affairs director.
I think that a lot of folks think out of grade pay is something that will be around forever just because it is here now. If the department rewrites the job descriptions of each rank , eliminates some positions ( desk sergeant, watch commander to name two ), and takes this for sure grievance to arbitration, there is no telling what the outcome would be.
