Sec'y to commander of unit 609 on that list--when's the last time she was on the street? I'm sure she's very qualified to write memos but as far as supervising patrol officers? No way in hell.
Oh, I forgot, she won't go to patrol--or if she does, she'll be at HQ in no time.
How many from units? How many meritorious? How many who actually deserve it?
Congrats to those who made it legit. That is one tough job now....you get it from both ends. Good luck . And it's about f*cking time!
Now promote some det's--we're f*cking dying out here! Hammered relentlessly day after day no matter what. For God's sake, promote some people to the D Unit. At Area North people are retiring left and right, as soon as they can get the hell out.
It took 3 months after the merit picks had to be in to come out with a class of that size!
If 75% of these fresh young white shirts don't go to a fast short handed district I'll...I'll....well I don't know what I'll do....but I'll be pissed. But hell, that's pretty standard these days.
Congrats rookies. How many of you are already calling your Chinamen to stay north or east???
Congrats KR it's been a long time waiting and much deserved. You will make a top notch Sgt and whatever district gets you will be lucky.
Can't wait to see who had the most whack to get on the list. I wonder if this list will prove that merit promotions are given to the most qualified candidates or will it be Chicago business as usual.
I wonder who the merits are.
Congratulations big hands !
Congrats to all. Get familiar with the south side of Chicago u will be there for awhile!!!
Congrats JIMMY T (193) !!!!! Good job!
Is it true M. B. from 009 made it? Shouldn't someone teach her how to be the police before she makes Sgt.?
Congratulations to all that made it!
For those of you that are close, (like me) don't worry your time is coming soon. (Within 6 months)
To the few regular guys and gals who made it off the list, congratulations. To the rest of you clout-heavy retards that had the answers in advance or are meritorious, fuck you. (fart noise)
More Sgt's??? Too many white shirts not enough blue shirts. How about just busting down some of the top heavy brass instead?
I hope Barney is on it, he should be on there. Go Hawks lol
Anybody remember the tool at the Bernstein class that dropped all his paperwork and started to cry and stormed out when the whole audatorium laughed at him? Douchbags papers were flying everywhere!!!
Heard he was a merit.
its funny. Just by seeing the unit name then the persons name you immedialty know that its a merit pick. I mean come on, the inspector generals detail unit..... ummmmmmmm, yeah ok. Im sure you earned it with all your hard work humping it out in the inspector generals detail. what a joke.
OT
Who is Steve Robbins and why does he want retirees from voting inFOP elections -and proceedings.
Good luck to all,the new Sergeants! Hope you all can be as tough and patriotic as me!
Would have been nice if they'd have continued to let us know who was meritorious off the list, and who nominated them. It sure didn't take long for that to change under this regime.
off topic. 5 homicides in the city last night which brings our total homicides citywide for July 2012 to 44. This time last year we had 55. So far we are down 11 homicides from this time last year for the month of july. Look for that to be big news come aug 1st about how the new crime strategies are working. shootings are also down 74 from this same month last year.
I feel sorry for you guys/girls.
congratulations Milo!
C'mon guy!!!
Hope they put out some Sgt's who actually know the job and common sense. I slide though and was promoted a few years back by the "test". What a joke. I dont deserve it. Everyone knows the job better than me.... (Sarcasm off). I cant wait for the whinning and shit talking to begin.....
Wow! I noticed a person who is the bodyguard of Louis Farrakhan on the list. He also sued the city over an eeoc complaint because of his Islamic beliefs. This city sux. I guess Farrakhan has his people in the department too.
Is this the first "it's happening Friday" prediction to come true? Who has the scorecard?
Congrats T.D. You deserve it! Best of luck you'll do great!
Area South TF
SCC, You Tease!
002 gets two picks. Long live Terry Hillard! Total bullshit.
So i'm guessing 21 off list and 9 thieves as has been the case in the past. What a crock of shit. If i had a decent number on the list i would be so fricking pissed off at these merit a-holes.
Congratulations to the 21 new sergeants promoted off the list. The other 9, not so much.
Good Luck!
Congrats, A. S.
No Merit List this Round!!! All By Rank!!
Look at the last name on the list and keep her in mind. If she gets assigned to your district, LOOK OUT. No common sense and a trouble maker. She is one you definitely don't want on your job. 009 is going to have a party when she leaves. Oh yeah, if you yell at her or challenge her, she will start crying like a little baby. Wait till you see how fast she comes off the medical, her favorite place to be.
Please say it ain't so that the Facebook drama queen from 009 made Sgt!
Merit is a secret all over again. I heard they get to round up. If so that makes ten merit. What a waist.
I just saw the Sgt list on Shaved.
Talk about worthless 35th street house mouse never worked the streets suck up to the bosses merit promotions. I saw 2 that fell into that category. I am sooooo glad That I am out of there.
Congratulations Billy! I mean....Sgt Meador sir...
how many will be promoted off the list this time around?
019 dist. Really needs to consolidate
Btd the phone calls and the bullshit. They are not leaders just hack and cogs in the machine of stupidity? The min they are promoted they get the attitude that they are better than the blue
Any military veterans? The city use to give points for being in the Service until the Gays complainded. Now with the end of DADT will the city and Rahmboooo start to truly honor our service? Or will they just treat them like shit? The did that to my HRI McGuire when he came back from deployment. colonel in the national guard but dumped to mids in t he ol 023. He took it all with class and never beefed-
Sempervivum
Just what we need... more Sgt in our Area there's about thirty now!!
Why do we need more Chiefs, when there's less Indians?
OT. After watching the opening ceremonies of the Olympic games it became very apparent why Chicago was passed over. With our graft and abysmal corruption we do not fit into the world stage. The wool cannot be pulled over the worlds eyes. Rightfully so.
Some of the merit picks couldn't supervise kids picking up shit in the park, yet they are sgt designees. God help us all!

Okay now bring down all the list and give some new tests

Former pension board rep, ran for trustee with Shields, did not make it.
In other police unions, retired PO's are not able to vote on anything affecting active duty PO's. Why should they? Retired PO's are not part of the bargaining unit here. The pension board represents retirees here, not FOP. A retired PO has no standing with the FOP under the contract.
A PO got hurt two months before his 63rd birthday. At age 63 he was mandatorily retired and ceased to be part of the bargaining unit. His calls to the FOP about his injury were pointless. He thought he would get a year on IOD medical. Wrong. At age 63 he ceased to be employed.
If a retiree has a complaint they are told to call the pension board. The FOP might send a letter in support but there is nothing else that can be done. No article or page in the contract gives retirees contractual rights and there never will be anything in there giving former employees any contractual rights.
So why should a retired PO be able to vote on issues which affect active PO's who are in the bargaining unit? It is a very simple issue.
Some years ago the FOP made proposals to put in the contract language guaranteeing retirees rights. This was a non-starter for the city. They would not even sit down or even consider putting anything about retirees in the contract. And why should they?
Retirees are no longer employees, they do not work for the city any longer. They resign, retire for pension. Their rights etc. are written in the pension code. Not the contract between the city and FOP. Why should retirees therefore vote on issues that affect the working police?
The answer seems obvious, they should not. I know of no other police union that includes retirees in their board of directors with the power to vote on issues affecting working cops. Grievances, lawsuits, contract issues etc. Why should someone whose career is over have that kind of power over working police officers?
Out of the 27 members on the FOP Board of Directors, 9 are retired PO's.
One third.
One third retired PO's with the power to vote on contract issues affecting active working PO's yet they are not part of the bargaining unit.
That is why Steve Robbins has taken on this issue.

Since when is a sergeant called "sir?"
Steve Robbins is my hero, that's who he is...and he's funny.
At Area North people are retiring left and right, as soon as they can get the hell out.
No new Det's for Area North. As a compromise, the city is generously allowing you to keep the cage they put up for NATO. I hear that they are going to put some picnic tables in there, some will have umbrellas.
I wonder who the merits are.
-----------------------------------
Ya. I guess they did away with J-Fleds practice to name the merits. But if you look at the list, there are A LOT coming from units, so I think you can have a good guess as to how many are merit.
Tom and Dave.... Good guys off the list.
You had a god run in OCD.
I hope you get back soon.... But.... You may not be the right shade of pale that Roti is looking for.
You'll be fine wherever you end up.

Who? At least initials, please! And hey, does Farrakhan represent the values of this city???
Bwahahahaha!
I'm sure people on this blog know who came from a unit and who has whack. If you do, you should post it! One by one, I'm sure we can come up with where the 9 merits came from and who their whack/significant other is!!!! Not that hard to do!
If you know it post it!

But there are a lot more det's they are responsible for. I don't see my sgt's sitting around shooting the shit, shopping online, or playing video games. They are always busy putting together Compshit data. Sgt's are being worked as hard as det's or harder. No, I'm not a sgt. Just reporting what I see where I work. I know for a fact, at least for my sgt., there are no early ducks--in fact, he's there longer than his tour, and no, he's not some idiot who lives for the job.
Det's don't have time to do investigations, and sgt's don't have time to help det's out on investigations. They are stuck with busywork all day long, on both of the shifts I have seen. Don't know about mid's.
hey I know a guy that made it meritorious- all on his own- no juice- nothing-just an average cop- see there is still hope for the rest of us

FOP should step up and demand it be made known! All of us deserve it! And if you are made by merit, and you're proud of your past record and can defend why you deserve the promotion, why be so scared for people to know?
Believe me, once the sgts. hit the districts, people will know who's who. But it should be public recrod. How can the city enjoy the right to have their 30%, but not be accountable for it?
They should release the reasoning and proof of 'merit' behind every single merit pick--because if merit picks are legit, then the rest of us will know what we need to do to be considered--if the process was legit, that is, which it's not.
Show us their numbers! Show us their incredible arrest history!!!! Show us what makes them worthy of being a merit pick! Show that they weren't made merit because of their name or significant other!!!
That is how the process SHOULD be. It's not going to happen in my lifetime on this job--or even in my entire lifetime!
Keep studying hard and you too will be rewarded.
Watch your fellow officers pass u up and wonder why not me. Well study harder next time.
Make more arrests. Lockup more bad guys. Get numerous honorable mentions and department commendations and watch your fellow officers pass u up. Why not me.Well study harder.
I now have a chest full of awards. I've saved lives, have put people on death row. I've been the real police. Why not me. I will study harder.
Wait, all the white shirts at St. Jude's parade don't have a chest full of awards. Matter of fact most of them don't have any. They must be real smart because they must spend all their time studying. I'm sure glad to have such smart bosses.
Guess I better stop locking up bad guys and start studying harder so I too can become a boss.
I thought Robbins was the the guy that sang "El Paso" and "Pink Carnation".

Hit has nothing to do with the FOP board. Steve Robbins is trying to take the retiree spot away from the pension board. By taking a retired PO out of the pension board it's easier for the city to push their agenda through. Robbins took the issue on because he was promised a spot in the water department by Rahm if he could get this passed. In the end it's a power play by Rahm to give the city a bigger voice in pension votes.

I agree with Steve. Hope he runs for FOP President!

Retiree's on the Board can not vote on contractual issues. Robbin's should read the FOP by-laws. Robbins should get his head out of his ass.
whats the beef ??? she was high on the list ... if she was merit you would be bitching ... you get what you study for

Yeah...you can try and tell them that, but before you leave the academy in two weeks, everyone will know who the merit hacks were.
And as usual, the rest of us will have to sit back and watch your rise begin just like we did with B.West and M. Pena. Worthless and NOT worthy!
One third retired PO's with the power to vote on contract issues affecting active working PO's yet they are not part of the bargaining unit.
Then why not restrict them to voting on issues related to retirees ONLY? Robbins may be looking to create a spot on the board for himself.
Retirees on the Board are not on the contract negotiating committee and do not vote on contract issues. The FOP represents retirees on pension matters in Springfield. The word is that Steve ( the rat ) Robbins, wants to run for a seat on the Mtropolitan Water District Board and has been promised support from Rahn in exchange for creating dissension within the FOP. Robbins, the rat, should be expelled from the FOP.
retirees do not vote on the contract. retirees on the board have no say in the contract.
Sgt is usually called sir by a non military person thst doesnt know better
Since when is a sergeant called "sir?"
7/28/2012 04:09:00 AM
Only when voluntarily offered as a sign of respect to one that has proved worthy. And there's not many of them still around.
Steve Robbins tks for the long drawn out bullshit answer re retirees rights /pension issues being protected inretirement, why you are so short sighted defies all logic. If retiree pensions don't stand as garanteed by previous FOP contract votes then nothing you vote for in FOP contracts and get even in binding arbitration with the city has a prayer of standing. The longer you are in the union the better you know and understand the history and art of negotiations and remember the fight to get where you are today....so goof first you divide the retirees contracted benefits from the rest of the police contract and then you will learn what happens when you weaken your union numbers, guess I ll have to show up at Sept mtg to help take you off your politically motivated pedestal and show that many of us who went thru hell and high water in the 70s,80s,and 90s still have your non retired backs, why in the world don't you have ours? you are a inept self appointed leader of very few! Retired proud FOP member
Obviously the hack that is poting out cm from ig unit does not know him and does not know his background from when he was in patrol and how hard he studied for this test. Congrats Curt, you earned it.
Why is it that a certain "person" on this list is a sergeant after getting caught shooting his gun off in public at his car windows after locking his keys inside then proceeds to fight with the police who respond on scene..... yet this person has been made a Detective and now a sergeant not counting the units this person has also been on. And people wonder why there is no faith in our Testing and merit system within CPD. Its a joke!!! and this person is a joke....and their clout is a joke for allowing it to happen. Guys have been stripped, fired and have taken more time for absolute b.s. then this guy has.
oh, and the day I call him "sir" is the day I shake our Mayors hand and the superintendents hands..............which will be never
if you dont want retirees to vote for certain offices, dont take money for dues. who should the retirees go to for help to get a raise for some widows who fall way behind after hubby bites the dust? oh i know screw them. the local has more influence than a small group of retirees. be honest how often do pos attend union meetings? and do you vote on every election? how much money is spent for arbitration for grievances or contracts? so you really dont need retirees dues.

The reason posted about the FOP Board came straight from Steve Robbin's mouth. Rahm already wins every vote he wants to win, like Daley. What's the difference if he wins 5-4 or 8-1? The pension board is already stacked in the city's favor, more stacked doesn't help.

I second that. I work Area 2 (I hate the term Area south). Sergeants are being asked to do more than ever. I am not a sergeant.
Mohammed Khalil or Khalil Muhammad, there's two? I know one was the real police from the "shit hole days" of public housing, who's the other guy? was there an amended list?

Unless speaking infomally...
If that Sergeant, Lieutenant Captain or whatever is significnatly older you give that person the respect of using "Sir" or "Ma'am"*. It is the same respect you should give any elder in any profession.
(* "Ma'am" is short for "Madam", which if you use that in some cases could get your face slapped.)
OK, laugh, we need it.
