Awards for Everybody!

The NATO Summit Service Award Ribbon has arrived:
  • Department Special Order 01-01, Department Awards, along with its related addenda, has been revised to introduce the NATO Summit Service Award. This award is granted to all sworn and civilian members that provided service to the City of Chicago during the NATO Summit convened between 18 May 2012 and 21 May 2012. Eligible sworn members are issued a ribbon bar and certificate.

    Department members assigned or detailed to the Mobile Field Force, Intelligence Section, and Area Central Bicycle Patrol Unit during the NATO Summit are designated for special recognition and will have their performance recognized with a silver star attachment on the NATO Summit Service Ribbon Bar.

    Civilian Members are issued a certificate.
So it's a 1996 DNC Ribbon for 2012. And don't worry kids - with all the brass patting themselves on the back for "crime reduction" this year, another award should be in the works by next January.

Congratulations to everybody!

Another "I was there" ribbon to go with my only "earned" ribbon, the one for department commendations. If you wear one, you're supposed to wear them all. Oh well, on my dress uniform only, at least there is a lot of color.

They can shove that Ribbon up their Ass! The only ones who wanted the NATO here was All the Dickhead Politicians starting from the Top! It could have been as bad as Seattle but Obuma had enough smarts to know Rahm was full of Shit once the Secret Service found out we didn't have the Manpower. So he Moved the G-8 portion to Camp David... The number of protesters could have been much larger with a very different outcome... We did what we needed to do! How about instead of a ribbon how about settling our contract with a half ass decent raise for once! I know you can find the money Rahm... You always do!

If you were physically there in the shit, I'm all for you getting a ribbon. To give a ribbon out just cause you were working is flat out meaningless. I have no want in wearing it. Just like the crime reductions and Obama bullshit. To those who deserve it, YOU earned it boys and girls.

Fuck this department and city.

They have money to spend on these meaningless, bullshit ribbons yet they reneged on paying the premium for those that worked the 6th and 7th day during NATO. They instead subjected us to the grievance process and shorted us our rightfully earned overtime pay.

*** By the way... FUCK YOU VERY MUCH, DON O'NEILL!!! Your own testimony sank you cocksuckers ***

And another "Fuck You" courtesy of MLAS: Gulliford today issued a B.O.P. facsimile forbidding anyone other than FTOs to work with PPOs - we assume to put the kibosh on those folks dropping out-of-grade slips and grievances when denied.

Paraphrasing, it says in the event their assigned FTO is off and there's no other FTOs available to dump them on, the new kids will ride around with sergeants or be assigned to the desk or other administrative duties. Furthermore, disciplinary action will be sought for any supervisor that dares approve an out-of-grade slip.

CPD Skewed Logic 101 in action...

A) Most of the people that AREN'T FTOs that wind up with brand new recruits have more time and experience than most of these newly-minted FTOs.

B) Some of these new FTOs are 'double dipping' on the out-of-grade pay when assigned two or three PPOs a day, so where exactly is the city saving money by not paying the premium to anyone who works as a defacto FTO?

The city again just stuck it in the asses of the grunts by effectively declaring null and void Section 26.3 of our collective bargaining agreement.

"But pay that no mind! Just go add this nifty NATO pin to the breast of your dress blouse". I sure will. Right next to the other useless pins for World Cup Soccer, DNC, Bulls "Celebration" ad naseum.

Now go write the machine something that'll generate revenue to line their pockets, and don't ask any questions about anything.

OT:

Why is it that the City of Chicago gave a 22 million dollar contract to the City of Montreal, in the Country of Canada, to the Chicago Bicycle Program and of all things the Montreal Bicycle Headquarters is in Texas....how about that for having guts against the citizens?? They wouldn't keep the contract inside the bankrupt City of Chicago. "What", we don't have bicycle companies? We don't want jobs for here? What guts. And the Cease Fire contract went to Hillside, Illinois, not Chicago, Illinois.

And they grab our pensions and health insurance, saying Chicago is broke.

They do what they want. Stop voting for Democrats. Give them a taste of their own medicine.

I am so glad that I am not the only person who DIDN'T forget about them not paying us for the 6th and 7th day overtime. I read the contract and it is about as black and white as it gets that those of us who worked deserved the overtime. What is really shocking to me is how long it is taking for a ruling on that grievance.

No, I'll wear my ribbons. A sgt is decent enough to put u in for an award for good work that u did then you should wear it.... Or are u just spouting off because you never really got any awards? It's not a contest. Weather you have one award, ten awards or 5 rows wear them proudly. Not for a pat on the back but for the pride you take in doing this job. It's a thankless job, when a sgt wants to thank you one of the only ways he can just be humble, accept it and be proud.. If your getting an award odds are you did something good

ribbons and awards sure are one of those sore spots, huh?

The immediate, "who cares?" Or... "that one is earned, that one is a scam," is part of the usual signs of inconsistency, and favoritism that renders the process and the resulting award system inequitable, and therefore, not credible.

What a shame. We're supposed to be part of an organization that upholds a sense of honor and tradition. With rare exception these posts all sound like utter surrender and defeat. CPD, vanquished.

F-ck the ribbon. Take all the extra Nato Money and give it to the officers that worked. Or put it into our pension funds.

Add this one to the ever growing list of ribbons that you don't need to use your handcuffs to get. I have about 4 that I haven't put on my dress blouse because I have no idea what the fuck they're for.

I agree. The award is bullshit if you were one if the ones that stayed back in the district. The ones that deserve it are the ones that were downtown every day in and out of the vans, in and out of riot gear walking the line, I was one of them so I will wear MY award proudly on my formal uniform. . I would ask that if you weren't downtown please don't wear yours. You didn't earn it and it waters it down for those of us that did.

Another ribbon for the HQ house mice to put on their uniforms for when they get sent out for first day of school.

Most won't make it out that day. They will get the call from their boss saying they are irreplaceable and the CPD cannot do without them that day. The CPD cant function without them, but it seems to when they are on furlo,medical, BFD, Pd

^^^^^^
This guy(or gal) is on to something
^^^^^^^

An AWARD is "something that is bestowed, especially on the basis of merit" or "to recognize excellence in a certain field"

"Campaign" ribbons are "awarded to a...member who participates in a(n) ...operation"

Maybe we should have 2 types: "award", and "campaign" ribbons.
The department lumps all of them together as awards, which they are not.

Hey, guess what? It's called seniority fucktard. I'll take off whenever I want to and I'll do it by whatever means necessary.

And fuck you, tact and GEU that "held the line under.....blah, blah, blah". Poor baby had to get sweaty riding a bike and shoving a handful of barely-uncooperative protestors back onto a curb. I worked every Bulls "celebration". Go ask someone on the job thats your Daddys age about holding the line in 011 (and then the Duece the same night after we put 011 to bed) for the first 3 riots and get back to me.

I may bid to where you're assigned just to fuck you out of the furlo you want.

In the meantime, come hold the line on these nuts sweetheart.

After watching the news footage of the police at NATO, all of you deserve an actual award AND a pay raise. Seriously, the patience shown on the part of the police who were there was medal worthy.
