Of course patrol is not represented. If you count people from districts, its only 13, rest is coming from units and get. areas.
What happened to 66 being promoted?
Congrats to the Area 3 guys .you deserve it.
Congrats R.M. from 010, make us proud!
time to promote a class OF evidence technicians NOW!
how many were merit, nine???
12 from districts.
Good Luck with Wantuck!
Ok people OUT THEIR CLOUT!!
To score in the top 150 on that test you had better have a B.A. From U of C or Harvard or equivalent, right? NO?
Well, the girl that scored #1 on the sgt test....and 2 on the dicks test used to be a barmaid.
Study harder next time people
Hahahahahahah
"it'd be nice to see if Patrol is adequately represented"
Haha, that's a good one SCC!
Eleven from patrol, I believe.
You forgot roger powell from 019
OT
Thanks for the assist, Franklin Park PD. Appreciated.
OT-more bad news coming out of 018. It involes a on duty p.o., a transvestite, inside a marked squad car. The end result is not good. Use your imagination as to what did or didnt occur. Does this shit ever end?
barney.... hopefully he is gonna be a desk sgt. cause that is all he has done is work the desk
Did they break it down by clout, I mean merit, or did they go back to the old way of making us guess who's got juice?
19 from units 11 from partol same old shit
thats great and all but now patrol is that much shorter officers.
17 are assigned or detailed to units.
13 are from districts.
The 30% MERIT picks were NOT stated.
I'm sure that was Wysinger's idea since he was a "Merit Hack" his entire career.
Congrats, tom !!!
You thought this day would never come.
I'm still wearing that old vest from the dog days.
Good luck.
Time to retire. I know not one single name on that list. My new white shirt goes back in the closet. Again.
Don't have Units of Assignment, but it'd be nice to see if Patrol is adequately represented.
I saw the list yesterday and in answer to your question.......No, it isn't.
Congrats Jimmy and John, two great guys who actually made it off the list!!!
-025
To my pal from 007 and area sour, you're a great guy! You're a Navy vet, a solid cop and a family man. For your efforts, you'll probably go back to 007. I wish you the best, you'll be a great sgt and leader!!
Ooppppps , you forgot one! Better check again .... Just sayin

It is amazing to me how many gossipy rats are out there. Why do the news media's job for them? Are you one of those clowns who has to be the first one to give out the "news?" Get a life, loser! The old days - when a cop could bear a burden and keep his mouth shut - are gone forever.
the mayor and the pols care less the affect of these promotions. it is one of those things they want to control. they cant find a place to hide all the new sgts. so the pos will have to deal with the incompetent ones. if this keeps the public happy so be it, keep voting for inept pols. bottom line our contract is with the citizens, not rahm or the other lap dogs. so shake your head, spit on the ground, show how a professional acts and do your job.
OT. Gang funeral procession in 022 yesterday. Police helicopter did a great job filming entire thing and kept zone 9 abreast for 10 minutes. 4 arrested and 4 veh. Impounds at 111 and western.
I have one question. Are any of the merit picks officers who have been shot in the line of duty?
Are any of the merit picks officers who shot a bad guy or two dead who posed a serious risk to the community?
I hope so, but I doubt it.
Congrats Jimmy T. I worked with this guy in 11th Dist. he is tough as nails. Hard worker and will make a great Sgt. Signed 11th District Ranger

From districts or from cushy spots? There's a difference. Just because you're assigned to patrol doesn't mean you're actually IN patrol as a beat officer.
How many beat officers should be the question. I hope all of them.
Congrats to those legit. Congrats to the merits who actually deserve it based on TRUE merit. Fuck the merit scabs.

Was her mentor Aunt Bea? I can't remember, did she retire?
This must be gut-wrenching for those who were hoping to make it but didn't. Hang in there--there could still be another class or two made off this list.
Remember what's truly important, family and friends. Fuck this job. I always thought sgt. was the worst job in this dept.--and chances of making lt. are slim.
How can you complain about patrol not being represented. These are people who passed the test. You got to do well to get promoted. This is not the merit list.
Congrats to Tom, B from 98-2B.

Because you know the whole Department, right? Are you really that self absorbed? Good thing you didn't make it baby sarge!
It will be interesting to see how much penalty box time the technical advisor will have to do in district law enforcement before being summoned back to a unit. We all know that kind of talent can't be wasted in the patrol division.
time to privatize evidence collection NOW.
Congrats to all the new sgts.! Take care of your people, they need you now more than ever.
(And thanks for bumping me up the senority list)
Fellow Sgt.
I always wish promotees that they get a dozen or so to supervise that are just like themselves.
I'm so glad we have more Sgt's. Please Mr McNutty get rid of Sgt do nothing TC and Sgt I know nothing about gangs FU from 314. Complete wastes! Both together have ruined this unit.
Who the hell are they all?
barney.... hopefully he is gonna be a desk sgt. cause that is all he has done is work the desk
7/28/2012 02:07:00 AM
Screw you. You know nothing about him or where he's been.
One guy here got it right. Promotions are great, but the Department is robbing Peter to pay Paul. Congrats to those who made it, but every guy or girl who leaves patrol makes it that much harder for those left behind. Comp time just got even harder to get.

I can clear that up for you. They all had clout, some even had the test.. right x-020???
The one person I know on that list has worked the desk for as long as I've known her.
19 from units 11 from partol same old shit
7/28/2012 02:40:00 AM
"PARTOL" ?? Really?? This is why you:
A) aren't on the list
B) will always be in PATROL
Damn, don't know one single name!! 30 Sgts are not even going to put a dent in the shortage. Why even bother! Like the 45 recruits. We need mass hiring like 91 & 93.

I have never posted anything on this forum before but feel I must.....
I am s supervisor and work in 007. Seeing this list is just a joke, you mean to tell me there is not one promotable person working in the 007th district? I work with those officers every day and I can tell you that most are more qualified than any two promoted from those outside units! The officers in 007 bust their butts from beginning to end of every tour. With the stuff they deal with on a daily basis, they are more qualified than most by overall experience. I do not want to undermined those officers working districts who are always under represented in promotions (003, 005, 009, 011 etc...).
Its a wonder those officers continue to work as hard as they do when the exempt staff continues to tell them their not qualified by refusing to promote from working districts and continue to promote from clout filled units.
Well, the girl that scored #1 on the sgt test....and 2 on the dicks test used to be a barmaid.
I don't know what kind of Sgt. she is, but she IS pretty smart...
Who cares! They all heading to midnited on the southside! Good luck to all! You gonna need it!
KMA
Congrats M.M! You deserve it and will do a great job! It's nice to see someone that isn't merit, and who is from a district on the list.
Way to go J.T! You'll make a great Sgt!
Congratulations Meghann! FINALLY!! Be proud, you earned it! No merit for you!
Really surprised that people were " made " with manpower being short and all. I wish everyone congratulations that were promoted. It seems a true hard worker whether in patrol or a unit will not be promoted because the " worker " is what they have to have on the street. It's just a terrible shame that the " workers' " out there on the street that know whats up on the street are controlled by people not in the know. The hard worker today seems to be fewer and fewer, too. Being proactive, subjects you to lawsuits, complaints, divorce, and an endless array of despair of fighting a losing battle. Got to love the GPS car to car stuff too. The job is now a job.
Hard to start talking trash about all the unit people getting made, if u don't know who is merit. What's to say the majority of people on the list who made it off the test weren't in units?
Congrats Curtis!!!!! Nice work you did at the City's IGO past 3 years.
So Gmac didn't tell us who the merit picks were? At least Weis did that. I suspect Gmac himself was a NY's version of merit pick.
You could have that job. It's not worth the money.
Congrats Tom D.!! I guess the little guy doesn't have to corner the sup anymore :) lol!!
K.K.
F up move up . Ignor the man behind the curtain this is all legit .
Those who have a real education went up and off this job the others went to our silly units..... The law dept call back etc

Cato the Three'ed? Merit youth officer who was made a dick. Lazy, couldn't find his own scrawny ass with his own hands. A poster boy for affirmative action. Business as usual
CPD's exempt rank and xo's are over 90 % merit sgt and lt before the selection to exempt.
Many of us wearing the blue shirt scored higher on a sgt test and were passed over by our new leaders.
remember write the curfews and movers for these political hacks.
cpd is like streets and san
ya better have a politician or ring doorbells .
Geezus. Get off the patrol representation already. Anyone knows patrol sucks and would jump at a spot to a unit. The units are always represented because the guys in them care enough about their job to study and work hard. While there are always the merit hacks and those certain people in units that have the juice a majority are hardworking guys.
Most of the guts bitching never put forth an effort or would spend a dime up front to pay for a study group. They are open to everyone cuz u already believe in the bullshit of its rigged. If he guys who bitch all the time put as much effort into studying as they did whining and complaining they would be peonoted already.
Patrol is represented on the list as well as the d unit. So Stfu And study harder next time instead of sitting at the bar telling war stories the night before the test

"19 from units 11 from partol same old shit"
You and the others brain dead who think like this are crazy, FU. If a cop bust his ass to do his job, yes a worker and a good boss recognizes him and ask him to come to a team, or unit, what that's bad so now he studies all this time and he is condemned because he came from a unit! Cop starts in 011, 015, or 007 gets shot, they look out for him and he gets into a unit, 3 years later he gets promoted by testing or merit. you than generalize. Than you are worst than IPRA's clientele. your a dog ass and want shit given to you, your the worse kind of cop.
Your such an embarrassment!
Congratulations to all and makes us proud, you deserved it and I look forward to your leadership.
Pirate Sgt.
I love hearing about units. I went from a district to a unit and left the unit after 4 years and more back in a district. And that was by choice. I have no clout. I put in for it and after waiting a long while I got detailed there. I still do horrible on promotional exams and probably will never be made. My point is who cares if the new sgts come from a unit. As long as they back you up so be it. If there werent any units then you would be complaining about notall the districts were represented or something else. And having worked with guys in units I wo uld rather have one of them the some guys who went to the hole all night just to study and make sgt
Proves barmaids are smarter than college graduates. Now that explains Cuello
In the past they listed those from "merit", and listed the people who put them in. What happened to Legitimacy and Transparency Mr Superintendent ?
Another class or two to come. Luitenants on Friday...good luck to all. Stay safe...
People deserve to be promoted but they are not. The problem is that there are too few promoted these days and so many of the spots are taken by "merit" . The whole thing is just sad.
Congrats Shenetta and Michelle.
You will both make great Sergeants.
WASHINGTON TIMES
Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel wastes 1.5 million dollars on Ceasefire
CHICAGO, July 28, 2012— Mayor Rahm Emanuel has proclaimed that Project Ceasefire is getting $1.5 million dollars to help reduce mounting violence on Chicago’s streets.
Mayor Rahm Emanuel proclaimed it. It shall be. It is pure boodle, graft, and boondoggle. It is a total waste of taxpayer money.
Ceasefire Director Tio Hardiman and creator Gary Slutkin M.D. are laughing all the way to the bank. Slutkin gets to donate more money to the politicians that matter to keep the scam going. Hardiman keeps getting a welfare check. Grant money is just welfare by another name.
The alleged purpose of Ceasefire is to mediate and interrupt violence, whatever that means. Ceasefire’s “Interrupters” supposedly go into neighborhoods and beg criminals not to kill people. They do not tell them to stop committing crimes, being in gangs, amassing guns, or selling drugs.
Major street gangs and the dope economy are the causes of Chicago's violence, especially the spikes in weekend summer violence. Eliminate gangs and drug dealers and those spikes will drop. So will the large amounts of weaponry on the streets. That is common sense gun control.
But then poor schmucks like Tio Hardiman would have to go out and actually work for a living instead of getting welfare.
Hardiman and his band of merry “Interrupters” walk the streets like mopes telling people “don’t shoot, don’t shoot, don’t shoot”. They might even say “please” once in a while.
It is a nice gig if you can get it. By the way did Hardiman get the name “Interrupters” from some comic book? Maybe there is an animated movie here, “Shootus Interruptus”?
Tio Hardiman blames the Chicago Police for much of the violence. He asserted the police “are too quick to pull the trigger lately”. “You have this ‘license to kill’ mindset,” Hardiman said. “The mindset is: ‘We are going to get the crime down no matter what it takes.’ ” (Chicago Sun Times)
Those same police are now expected to work with Hardiman and his “Interrupters”.
Someone should tell Tio Hardiman that it is the job of the Chicago Police Department, and all law enforcement agencies, to get the crime down no matter what it takes. That is what policing and law enforcement is all about.
What are the police supposed to do when confronted by armed criminals?
“Excuse me “Mr. Mookie Mamaluke sir, I happen to notice you have a firearm in your hand and are pointing it at me. Will you please cease and desist pointing the gun at me, and kindly drop the weapon sir. If you do not, I will be forced to draw my own weapon forthwith from its secured holster and properly ventilate your insides. Please, sir, don’t make me draw my weapon to use deadly force. It would be so very messy and inappropriate.”
Let’s get real. If you point a gun at the police, or refuse to drop the gun you are holding, they are going to kill you or try to. That is not a license to kill. It is justifiable homicide. Self-preservation is the highest order of nature. If you are too stupid to understand that you have no right to live.
Hardiman claimed Chicago youth are not properly trained how to deal with the police. Hmmm? Maybe he can find more grant money to teach them. It won’t change anything except the size of his bank account.
How are inner city youth supposed to deal with the police? Politely, respectfully, and by the way, leave the gun at home. Thugs of all ages would rather be disrespectful, impolite, and fight with or run from the police with their guns. Death must be a better alternative to jail.
Tio Hardiman is one of the self-promoting circus clowns and carnival barkers who use the grant system to rob, loot, and pillage the taxpayers. The media gives him undeserved credibility. Mayor Rahm Emanuel wants to pay Hardiman. The Chicago media goes hip-hip-hooray, flapping their flippers like trained seals.
Toss them some fish.
Etc...

Do you really think she never met any bosses while bartending? The whole test process is a joke.... Just remember to notify the watch commander wink wink...
Congratulations Andy Stewart from 022--well deserved.
I know the guy who was 24 out so merit could at most be 6
I dont know most of this list. I do know Jimmy Tri, congrats holy cross brother! You were/are the real police and will make a good sgt.
Hey lets all stick together through this nightmare of a mayor, Let's all have a safe weekend and I mean all, if your working in any district, if your one that takes off all the times on weekends and even the ones that go on the medical all summer, lets all be safe and stick together we can get through it.
Time to retire. I know not one single name on that list. My new white shirt goes back in the closet. Again.
*Can I have your white shirt before you put it in the closet so I can wipe my ball! Sergeant by score for 5 years!
Enough with not enough sergeants make it from patrol. I was in patrol for 10 years before I made it to a unit and got promoted by score. Too be honest with you most coppers, not all, from patrol are lazy and dumb. If you're a decent beat copper the chances are you would go to a unit or tact team etc.
"That guy's a merit hack!"
"She's never been the police."
"He's a housecat, who never did any real police work."
"Can't believe that jagoff got promoted."
TRANSLATION: "I'm jealeous it aint me."
Congrats to all, we need your help in the districts.
Attention to any new Sergeant or any current Sergeant if you were thinking of bidding into 010.
Captain C.W. will be gone in November.

I have news for you. I scored under 150 and I don't have either degrees you mentioned. I also used to wait tables, wash dishes, and push shopping carts at Jewel. As a matter of fact the pushing carts and moving boxes was part of my fitness program to get on the job. I will tell you how I made it under 150, but it wasn't easy. I made an agreement with my family that we would change our lifestyle a little and make the Sgt exam a team project. My new part time job was the test. For six months I studied, attended Bernstien and Roberts study groups, and lived the orders. I made flash cards, review cards, and flow charts. My wife became effectively a single parent. I studied at least 3 hours a day almost every day. I skipped ball games and twice, when I had to drive to games, sat in the car reading while my family watched. It sucked. I promised my wife and family that I would give the test 100% of my energy. I could never say I deserved it and couldn't be upset if I gave any less and didn't make it. That being said, I know a lot of great cops who felt that some extra reading and a little studying would get them under 300. They didn't make it. Congratulations to all who made it off the list.
Mike Shields and all 9 of his friends voted for Lappe for State Lodge VP.
Kevin Graham won with 58% of the vote defeating incumbent Duckhorn (52 votes) and Lappe (10 votes).
Shields couldn't get half his board of directors to vote with him. What does that mean for negotiations?
No Confidence? Maybe Consigliere Geiger can advise. He is always full of it . . . Advice, LOL.
All right. Show's over. Move along. Nothing to see here.
You'll be able to tell who the merit people are when you see where they go. Those that go to 011 and are gone within 3 periods are high up the merit list. Ones doing mids in 007, 003, 005 are the poor saps who scored well on the test. Oh well, for those who did it the right way congrats. The rest of you can go fuck yourselves.
What did Franklin Park PD assist on?
Not jealous here, congrats to all the new sergeants. Always remember where you came from, and be a leader, a mentor, and a friend to those who work for you. This job is tempoary but your reputation is forever.
Congrats Dean. You are a good guy and you deserve it. Not gonna write anymore because as usual coppers will tear the shit out of here as the haters do. Good luck!
Congrats to all...just remember, let us do our job - we'll let u know when we need you.

Border patrol union sounds off on invasion....I mean immigration.
I'm going nowhere fast. I accept it and do zero. That said, I don't blame ANYBODY that has a hand up. Lord knows I'd take it!
In response to this comment "The old days - when a cop could bear a burden and keep his mouth shut - are gone forever."
You are right how f'd up is it when transvestites are police to begin with.
Also some names for sgt I noticed. I wouldnt say they are overly intelligent but definitely have enough to make the list on their own. People shouldnt hate for names who made it. Maybe they should test better or prepare more. I did not take this test however Im confident I would make it on my on. Any malice from people seem to be venting from their own failures in life.
My question is why would anyone want to babysit incompetent maliced p.O.s anyway? Good luck with the chevrons and all the headaches!
Congrats to J.F.- you deserve it.
i remember the first case i tried having to cross Folino. i knew then that he was one of the good guys and should move up the ladder. glad that he has. good people!!

To be truthful, I'd rather work with a former bartender who has street smarts, than a U of C bookworm, any day!
Wantuck calls for a supervisor for everything. Now she will have to figure it out for herself. Good luck to the district that gets her.

Who won State third vice president? I hope it wasn't that used car salesman from Bedford Park!
Good to see very few Irish on the List for a change. Maybe the Department IS TRYING to change for the better, away from the back-slapping good old boy Club police, who've given it a black eye for decades now, with their drunken, "I'm protected by Clout" antics
The FOP should post all the testing results just like the Fire Union LOCAL 2. I know they can't post the merit, but they can post the results of the ranking order of people who took the test.
The union is part of the problem with merit...............
Congrats to Thomas & khalil. You were good cops from git!!! Even during the "dark" days @ CHA. You're climbing the ladder now, be good to your troops.
Well no transperancy on this list. So much for saying that and now just doing whatever. Always the shady stuff. Never changes.
Sw
thanks
tb
Berstien and Roberts courses were only offered to the chosen few I call bullshit. Giving the answers and where and what to study is not setting a goal its cheating. Oh and I attended yhe classes at 35 th street.
They didn't post the merits here so they won't have to post it when Al Wysingers wife Sgt Hall makes merit lieutenant!

I have news for you. I scored under 150 and I don't have either degrees you mentioned. I also used to wait tables, wash dishes, and push shopping carts at Jewel. As a matter of fact the pushing carts and moving boxes was part of my fitness program to get on the job. I will tell you how I made it under 150, but it wasn't easy. I made an agreement with my family that we would change our lifestyle a little and make the Sgt exam a team project. My new part time job was the test. For six months I studied, attended Bernstien and Roberts study groups, and lived the orders. I made flash cards, review cards, and flow charts. My wife became effectively a single parent. I studied at least 3 hours a day almost every day. I skipped ball games and twice, when I had to drive to games, sat in the car reading while my family watched. It sucked. I promised my wife and family that I would give the test 100% of my energy. I could never say I deserved it and couldn't be upset if I gave any less and didn't make it. That being said, I know a lot of great cops who felt that some extra reading and a little studying would get them under 300. They didn't make it. Congratulations to all who made it off the list.

I scored under 200 for both the dic's and sergeant's test. The preparation for the test was somewhat similar to the above poster. I quit school for both the dic's and sergeant's test. Studied every day as he or she did and more than 3 hours on my days off. Recorded many of the orders and listened to them while driving. I would say that my intelligence is average or maybe a little above. I would not have scored well without studying hard.

Enough with not enough sergeants make it from patrol. I was in patrol for 10 years before I made it to a unit and got promoted by score. Too be honest with you most coppers, not all, from patrol are lazy and dumb. If you're a decent beat copper the chances are you would go to a unit or tact team etc.
7/28/2012 01:27:00 PM
You're joking ... right?
Congrats to Dom. Hard worker. Great on the street. You will be missed.
So of they make thirty lieutenants then these new sergeants are a wash. Now that is some orginazational planing.
I'm so glad we have more Sgt's. Please Mr McNutty get rid of Sgt do nothing TC and Sgt I know nothing about gangs FU from 314. Complete wastes! Both together have ruined this unit.
Thank God Sgt. JB is there to save Unit 314
Tom Barker good luck brother you deserve it, finally a real copper gets promoted! As far as wantuck,she has no clue but could get you a good price (overpriced) on a furnace!

Wow. What unit am I supposed to get into these days? Tact team, you say. Oh yes, I want to bring in pimp arrests and have my hours screwed with. You must be the guy who looks down his nose at me with your backwards hat. I guess Im just lazy and dumb.
Penix your military service outs for Zero. What a sham and a shame
Penix you are the most well rounded officer in this department, R.mata no offense but pennix deserves the merit spot
Congrats JT & MM . I just moved up 9 spots on the dicks list
I won't hold my breath, but I hope they make dicks!!!!
For all you jealous fucks, these two guys are the real police before they went to units...
Relax 007th Dist. There's more to this job than dope and domestics....
It is funny how guys are dividing up those officers from units compared to districts. The sergeants exam was in 2006. That six years. Anyone could be in a different assignment in six years, from patrol to a unit. I'm just saying, you can't say who was merit just by their current assignment. Congrats to all who made it. Good luck.
to all the mfer's that talk shit. you shouldn't when you dont know !!! Dean, you're going to be a great boss, for those that don't know shit, you are going to get a sgt who is not an ass kisser but rather one who will look out for you and your best interest. if you don't believe it, just wait til you have to work for him_ whether he's on the desk or on the street, you're gonna wish you worked for him when asshole bosses or civilians try to screw with you. you just wait and see... mark my words!!!!!
CONGRATS DEAN !!!!
late addition a. senner from 630, damn was that a late phone call or what? corrected list, what's that?

what did the irish ever do to you simple simon--- you might have a beef with the kennedys but most irish are god fearing hard working individuals--- there would be no police department if it wasn't for the irish....
1: 27 pm, i call bullshit on your fucked up comment. Nonetheless, congratulations to all promoted, even yourself. I can see your going to be one of those new assholes, with the bright blue chevrons, going to whip into shape those blue shirts on patrol. Be careful, pedestals are usually 4x4 and with that grey matter holder on top of your neck getting bigger with your delusions of how your going to reinvent the wheel or how this department works, your going to fall off and fast. Congratulations again, on your new phases in your careers. G-d Bless, be fair and impartial, and keep your troops safe.
I work in 012 , I'm so glad our merit pick did not make it. What a lazy fuck.
The FOP should post all the testing results just like the Fire Union LOCAL 2. I know they can't post the merit, but they can post the results of the ranking order of people who took the test.

I don't think so.. ask at the next FOP meeting . . I believe the legal agreement was to keep the list unlisted.

The union is part of the problem with merit...............
7/28/2012 08:52:00 PM
The FOP is prohibited from posting the list. They can tell you where you placed but not where anyone else placed. One of the conditions the city places on it for giving the FOP the list. Transparent as the inner workings of the Daley family. As honest as Rahm's meeting with Daley and spontaneously blurting out, "Gee, if the Mayor's job were eeevvvverrr to come open, why I just might be interested."
Rigged and fixed and manipulated as hell like everything else around here.
stop working or retire fuck the city
No Problem congratulating those who earned their stripes, as for the merit, be grateful for the gift that keeps on giving.
For those of you that keep spewing the jealousy crap, you're the one that needs to chill. We, collectively have the right to bitch and moan about a promotion system that is wrought with corruption just like this city. I know there are plenty of people who get uncomfortable when we bash the merit system, most likely the merit hacks and their sponsors. It would be great if we all just sat back and let the city continue to get away with it but sorry, we're not a lay down and die kind of group.
To those who made Sergeant by studying and passing the test on you're own, Congrats and best of luck to you all

This is what is thought of patrol these days. If you're not in a unit or on a tact team you're considered a dumb, lazy, dog ass loser by 95% of the department and we wonder why shit is all fucked up. New recruits come on the job now and instead of wanting to learn the job, their only aspiration is to get into those cargo jeans and jersey and put on their backwards baseball cap because what could they possibly learn from some lazy dog ass patrolman in a blue shirt.
Just the beginning of the end for this one term fop prez and his clown board. He tried to again screw kevin Graham for the state VP but was very unsuccessful indeed. Congrats kevin now go after him for Pres of lodge 7.
Wantuck calls for a supervisor for everything. Now she will have to figure it out for herself. Good luck to the district that gets her.
7/28/2012 08:11:00 PM
She'll be one of those insecure Sgt.'s who check with/ call the DSS for every little thing. She can't make a decision for herself , and if she does, it's probably gonna be the wrong one! I agree the district and watch that gets her drew the short straw!

You're right. It's LOOTenants,
Andy senner was on the last two sergeants list but because he was on a leave of absence overseas he was passed up . He should have been a sergeant in 2010 . He is not merit.
Don't judge these guys just yet, wait a year then we will see what they are made of ! Do they drink the kool aid or not.
Any word of the movement of pos from 019. This has to happen. Moral is at a all time low. And they have 60 tac officers , While our district is in a backlog all night. Does 019 really need 400 officers.

Shame on you for putting the job before family
The late addition was someone who had previously waived the promotion a couple of times. The Department excluded him this time and shouldn't have.
Senner did not make a phone call other than to the Union to tell them, they forgot about him. He was number one. He waived it three times, and they forgot to call him this time.
Relax 007th Dist. There's more to this job than dope and domestics....
yeah your right... in 007 theres dope, guns and more guns. If you dont work in the wood then you just dont know. 007 has the best coppers in the city. worst district in the city and probably one of the worst disticts in the country. You work in 007 its like a right of passage.
Unless and until the city clearly defines "merit" in writing and makes the promotional process totally transparent, it's more rigged than a Madison St. three-card-Monte game--the deeply-entrenched and relentless pursuit of mediocrity ("the Chicago Way").
Perhaps it's but another outrageous manifestation of "Chicago values". Right, Rahm?
Excuse me. I've got a taste for a Chick-filet-A sandwich.
The chick that scored #1 and #2 on the sgt and det exams, had copies of the damn test, no that is not a rumor it is fact. I never worked with someone as unsafe/tactical in my 15 years on the job. What a complete airhead, she is smart at how to take advantage of people, thats all.
time for a new test or 100% merit

FYI, Senner was added because he had previously turned it down twice and somehow he got overlooked.
Good luck Andy, you'll do great!
Hey you hating %#! faces I'm in a unit and I came from 011 with no clout, with over 3000 arrests and I'm not the only one. Most of the guys I work with,worked their asses off, not to kiss ass but to get court time and make money for their families. Contrary to belief, you do get recognized for hard work!!! I m on the promo list and if they make any other classes your damn right I'm gonna try for meritorious with NO CLOUT. If I don't make it oh we'll!!! Im not gonna cry and bitch about it. 8 guys that made it are from the D unit. One that I know is on the dicks list. It's no coincidence they re on both lists. It's called studying and hands on experience in hard working districts!!!

The idiots passed him over because he declined it once, so they assumed he didn't want it. Maybe they should ASK next time.
To 950 am maybe some of the hard working pos haven't had the opportunity to take a promotional test. I didn't take the sgts test and I work my ass off. My sgt tried to put me in for meritorious but I told him I wouldn't make it because I did not take the sgts test so I would not be qualified. I'm kicking myself for not taking it!!! No clout just hard work!!! I'm not whinnying about the guys who made it. Most of them deserve it. I'd love to have the Real Police (JT) as my sgt to watch out for us. I know he'll be a great sgt because he learned from a great Sgt (CI)! Congrats!!!!
Congrats Andy just saw you on the list!!! Go 005 -b.
I just moved up another spot on the dics list!!!
I moved up 10 spots that I know of as a result of this list!!!
Does anyone know if detectives will ever get made? It's the only test I took!!! I'm 141 out and my partner is about 40 or 50 spots ahead of me!!! Any hope for us???
Please pray!! Congrats!
I don't know one single name on the list. wtf?

Andy actually passed on sgt. The 1st time through on the test. He's smart, a good cop, & couldn't give a fuck about being a "boss". No. I'm not him, but I worked around him. Good luck finding people to talk shit about the guy, because I don't know a single person who didn't like him.

Mike Shields and all 9 of his friends voted for Lappe for State Lodge VP.
Kevin Graham won with 58% of the vote defeating incumbent Duckhorn (52 votes) and Lappe (10 votes).
Shields couldn't get half his board of directors to vote with him. What does that mean for negotiations?
No Confidence? Maybe Consigliere Geiger can advise. He is always full of it . . . Advice, LOL.

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
What was most embarrassing for Mike was members of little Mike own ticket were wearing tee-shirts for the other opponent running for state wide office. Mike is in way over his head. First he is ignored in Springfield so he had to hire back the past president to get any recognition down there. And here in Chicago the press ignores him too. So Pat Camden was hired to be our face in the press. Now both of those moves were good ones. But now all the lodges around the rest of the state know that Mike is incompetent when his own people will not vote with him for the state wide fop offices.
Time for a midtern review of Mike and the rest of his ticket. I'll give that in the middle of the week.
TRP
I would not become a sgt for shit ! You guys need to undertand this job ,district will be ran by sgt's with no extra pay .I am on days witth 18yrs why would i give that up for fucking midnites or afternoons .my buddy who is a sgt just got send to005 nites with 26 yrs no fucking way.
Perez? what a stroke and backstabber, good luck whoever gets saddled with him.
This list rounds out all the Austin 06 rangers from the hayday (2001-2004). All those guys got promoted for one reason.... THEY DESERVED IT. As revolver po-lese, on days, I always came into work seeing these guys still bustin a hump. Good work, fellas! Proof all is not completely lost on this job!
Who ever wrote your bs regarding how hard working you guys are in units are so full of shit, yeah most had a phone call. There is so much waste and special spots in these units. If rahm wanted to put more police on the streets he needs to look at the units.
You insult patrol because your head is so full if your own bs. Most merit come from units because you have a phone call and you know it. You are not in a unit because of any special talent don't kid yourself. And I knew many who had connections get a heads up on tests. So save your bs along with your fantasy war stories for the civilians in the bars.
Our merit system is not transparent and should be challenged in court. There is absolutely no system it is based on.
...Sgt.'s who check with/ call the DSS....
Dont know where you work- but Sgts ARE the DSS in my neck of the woods on all 3 watches...and they are no better/worse/brighter than those working the street
This is (1) thing that is wrong with this department, arrogant clouted babies who truly believe you are better than anyone else because you have a phone call and kissed ass your career.
I was in patrol, in a unit and am a white shirt by score. Most officers who work hard are in patrol, many in units have much more time to waste and do nothing. An hour of work and 2 of down time.
And here's a clue unit wonders. At the end of the day its a thankless job. At the end of the day you go home to the same neighborhood and homes and families as your counterparts in patrol and at the end of the day you are no better than the officers in patrol. And society thinks you are just as low class as the rest of us. So heros, get your heads out of the sand, and realize when mommy told you , you were special that meant only to her!
Rahm needs police in patrol look at the waste in units, he has 150 plus in area teams not in districts answering jobs, if we are so short in districts he can fill spots with police we already have
When using the Chicago version of the word "merit", I beg you to enclose it in quotation marks ("______") because it is anything but the actual dictionary definition of merit. It could best be described as "MANAGEMENT ARBITRARY DISCRETION (MAD)," more commonly known as CLOUT.
Study harder, my ass.
Your success as a proactive street cop and on a standardized intelligence test and the respect of your peers is meaningless.

7/29/2012 09:42:00 AM
I didn't put my job before my family. WE, my family, made a decision to make a short term sacrifice for a long term gain. I don't have to work the side jobs anymore unless I WANT to, but the best part is that my family knows that there are sacrifices that have to be made to achieve goals. Don't feel sorry for my family. Plus some of those were Cubs games. So it was a win-win.
I guess if you decline a promotion once or more times for whatever the reason the city just assumes they hav the right to overpass you, without any inquiries to the promotee. Typical city do whatever whenever, and change the rules as they see fit.. And then when wrong is made right you hav sniveling lil be otches claiming someone must have made a phone call ... Like one wise man say,,, It's better to be thought a fool than open your mouth and remove all doubt......
The best part of CPD promotional test is that you write your name and soc IN PENCIL!
Then it takes 8 months to grade it.....
Ya, ok it's legit.

Great Job! Congratulations! I am sure that you outscored many "know it alls." Additionally, I am sure that you outperformed people with advanced degrees. What was your educational background at the time of the test? Also,if you will, would you tell us what worked for you the most? Was the Bernstein training worth the money and helpful? I am waiting for the next test!
I read three comments and stated out loud... Why do I read this crap?
If someone is promoted legit off this list. They might have an idea what the general orders are. But hurry and jump at the chance to anonymously fuck with these new Sergeants. So sad.
