019 is down nearly 100 since the merge, no openings. 016 only has 2? They are at least 60 short.
Stay away from 015!!! Barb has killed a once great district!
Transfer to 018 good places to eat and you will be an expert at processing shoplifters.
I actually snorted out loud. This is what passes for a bid these days?
If you don't have minimum 15 years on,the north side districts ain't gonna happen.
Nothing in 19. Swirling, swirling, here we go down the drain.
I protect take payers from link card scrum bags I love the north side.
I am a northsider so I am not too familiar with all the districts down south. Why does 5 have so many openings?
Darn. Nothing in 004.
Haven't seen that many opening in a while! The way the numbers look for the nicer North side district you will need some time on, probably over 15 years to even have a chance, more for some districts. Movement is a good thing, they should open up the opportunities more. Never spend over 10 years in the same place an old timer that had 30+ in the same district told me years ago. Go someplace and make new friends. Good luck all.
16 16 16 pick me, pick me, pick me.
OT/ I think something should be done about the tact LT in 19 he dumped two tact teams from the old 19 but kept all the guys from 23 even though there numbers are lower. He is a self serving piece of trash who gives the commander the wrong advice and that is why we have a robbery problem in 19. He should be dumped.
Why never in 025? They seem short there too. 016 is only half-staffed and crime is jumping up there too. If you don't start manning those districts they shall fall too.
Haven't seen that variety of openings in a long time.
•014 - 4

If you come to 014 FORGET 3rd watch!
The BAT-SHIT Crazy lieutenant D.H. is about to snap any day now and kill someone.
The fuckin' department will NOT do a damn thing about it.
Disgusting.
Stay away from 015!!! Barb has killed a once great district!

If you go to 015 just stay away from her and don't do nothing for her.
Where to go where to go.

Montana...
on about 50 acres and FAR away from these fuckin' SAVAGES.
if you are a northsider stay on the north side ,there is plenty of work there too. stay away from 5 but 9 and 8 are good districts
Don't come to 011. Cmndr and XO are idiots. Despite being in the ghetto, we used to have good bosses and had some perks to dealing with shit everyday. Those days are LONG gone. Time due denied constantly, cmndr will only talk to you if you're an m-1, XO is completely drunk on Kool Aid and was never the police so he has no clue how to run a district like 011. The watches have horrible Lieutenants that nobody can stand, and there are only a handful of good sgts spread among all 3 watches. I'm filling out a par form myself to get the hell out. Save yourself the headache...don't bid for 011.
14 years on going to try out 008, I'm a lock with my time on the job. So long 003 you pit!
1.34am...because 005 is the shithole of shitholes, abject poverty in 90% of the district, plain old poverty in 9% of the district, the 1% left are hard working people who don't deserve their lot in life.
The bosses are also pretty shit as a rule.
To 12:22 AM who said "If you don't have minimum 15 years on,the north side districts ain't gonna happen." NOT TRUE
What, are you trying to cut out your competition? Granted you might not get days in most northside districts with under 15, but there are some choice spots opening up that haven't been open in a while. I now work in a northside district and it's nice to pick a different lunch spot every night where you can sit down and they don't hand your food to you through a turn style. There is something to be said for good food and nice looking women even though it's not on days.
I protect take payers from link card scrum bags I love the north side.
I work north also, there are plenty of link carders up here!
Talk about hoping to win the lottery!
Where is 005 at and why would anyone bid there?
Wake me when we receive are retro checks?
I am a northsider so I am not too familiar with all the districts down south. Why does 5 have so many openings?
One Reason ??? Cmdr. Patty Walsh
Do not bid to 010 merit Pena is a horrible boss. A micromanager and a b*tch to her officers. Does not treat anyone well and has her specific sgts who have no time as sgts trying to lead the officers especially sgt bobble head who has no experience as a po but as an et he will tell you he is da bomb leading experienced officers of the robbery team. Everything is ass backwards in 010. Do not bid to 010. You have been warned
I have 22 yrs for your a 100 I won't take your northside bid
Heard Shields is going to 23

Because they're burnt out from doing Real Policework, unlike yourselves up north, and bid out as soon as they can.
the CPD has too many Troops up on the North Side, not enough out South and West. Protecting the Gold Coast is the Regimes' priority.
Come to 022. Coppers there don't do shit. Older ones sleep or hide in schools or foot guys go home and young ones try to impress young girls at bars with baseball cap backwards. Mike SW played the role forever workin testicle team with bs arrests then goin to bar with his 1976 perm. Call him. he will tell you how to lock up a Avis customer one day late for returning a rental. Get a PSMV too and be at bar in no time.
16 here I come.
Your telling me that with 11500 coppers there are only 49 openings?
Something ain't adding up!
I work in 018 and recommend bidding if you know you can bid days. LT J.S. on days is the real deal when it comes to bosses, and he'll always help you out if he can. LT J.P. on third watch is a really nice guy, but I guarantee you the sergeants will have you pulling your hair out within days of joining the watch. Then you have a group of crybaby midnight sergeants that are jealous because all the troops actually like and respect one of their sergeants because he treats them like adults, so they complained about him to the LT. I really feel that the worst thing that you need to deal with is the nutty sergeants throughout the district. I'm sure that it's better than answering ghetto domestics all day, but some of these bosses will certainly give you a new understanding of the word frustrating. Good luck with the bidding boys and girls.
Well 014 can be good but the beast Lt. on 3rd watch is a killer, but just wave bottle under her nose and she will perform like a seal. missing teeth and all.

Where have you been??? We don't have 11,500 officer!!!
You hit it right on about the bosses at 018
Your nuts if don't bid to a district you really want to work in or is closer to home because of any boss. Boss's come and go all the time. Things will be changing again BIG Time, as soon as McCarthy gets the ax....
Finally!!!! Get me he hell out of the ghetto!!!!! I will work whatever watch! Get me away from the savages!
Signed, fingers crossed

Has she ever learned how to tuck in her shirt, tie up her hair, or talk with any measure of respect to another sworn member? Been gone from there a while, but I thought maybe lightning could strike and she'd become a decent human being?

019 is not short the office and caps office is so loaded they ran out of desk spots. dont forget all the special teams robb/burg teams and all those special beats like 04 04c 1944 1945 what we need is good leadership but never going to get it from the current commander and his psycho xo. I cant believe the people who live there dont complain of service. Last week the security of a large store finally gave up waiting for a car and let the theft offender go.many many jobs are waiting for 15 to 20 min and on weekends up to 45.This is a good place to work but not under the current command.
Can someone tell me how 022, 3rd watch is please.?
005 is a good district if your a worker however most coppers there are not. Dogs call themselves down on lunch when in progress calls are in their beat. I even heard a cook County sheriff request for assistance, dispatch sends it out and beat car comes up saying I was just gonna call for a personal. Shit coppers ruined that shit district.

I have known the man you talk shit about for about 15 years, and I can guarantee he was a better Policeman than you can EVER hope to be.
You are a true classless act to talk shit about a good copper & a better person.
At least have the courage to post your name or say it to his face instead of hiding behind a keyboard.
Your mom's calling you. Your PB&J sandwich is ready.

In fairness, I work on one watch and have my nose in all watches spreading gossip
Coppers in the slow , nice districts have nothing to complaint about, nothing! Transfer and go to a busy district, obviously you have too much time on your hands.
C/O T. Clark 701 related that the unit is done. McFartface wants to put another 100 coppers in the districts due to all the violence. No more event numbers for a train ride. All good things must end.

That's the point! 11500 is the party-line number.
it's called sarcasm son.
There appears to be a recurring theme all the white shirts are female career house mouses that got promoted in spite of being feeble-minded incompetent morons.
Before you label me sexist, I've worked w/female officers that would make good supervisors, the testing/vetting process needs some serious attention until then the incompetence will continue
I'm going to bid to 005 so I can make my life miserable.
Midnights in 011 should be fun!
0216AM midnights in 011 used to be fun! We need a boss that knows what hes doing so the Sgt's can stop killing the watch.
Can someone tell me how 022, 3rd watch is please.?
It was decent when I was there. I would go back if Sgt. Bloom was not there anymore but she is stilllll there.
Come to 11 - you will be miserable. Bosses have ruined a Good district. Demoralized good workers. Place sucks- and the officers don't give a Shirt anymore.

yeah, yeah, yeah, ALL those horrible bosses and you're bidding out, I wonder why. We KNOW about the DC and XO. We know, we work there too. But not every boss (oh, you have deemed a "handful of good Sgts", thanks) is horrible that "nobody can stand". That's BS
Glad you're going, it's hard enough with the afore-mentioned DC and XO effin things up and the savages out there, without people like you tearing us down too. And yes, I am a blue shirt, I'm just tired of people like you who only complain and usually make things worse than they are. Good riddance.
To the P.O. asking how the 3rd watch is in 022;
It's the same as in any other district.
You have a handful of officers who do all the work while the rest might show up to watch, offer an opinion, but not get involved.
As with other districts, officers are on 3rd watch because,
- they can't get days, so F*** It, they do their 8 hours and go home!
- they have spouses who work days, so they have babysitting issues and no way can they go to court.
Consequently, no arrests, no tickets....
-they hit the bars after work, sleep all morning, go to the gym in the afternoon and then report to work. They have a routine so they will not let an overtime arrest or court interfere with their lifestyles!
-and then you have the 20% that do all the work, manage to raise a family, coach their kids, work out at the gym and still will write a ticket and make an arrest!
Same all over, except here in 022, the dogs are the first to say that they are here to protect the home front, sure, you respond to the calls in mt. Greenwood and Beverly, but when you get there, you're there as an observer, don't get caught actually putting handcuffs on anyone, that means arrest, paper and court. Let's be truthful, by coming to protect the home front this allows you to kill a half hour hanging out in mt greenwood at the call, another half hour at white hen, another 45 to 60 minutes for lunch and then check out your friends in the Kennedy park, mt greenwood park softball leagues and don't forget to check out the bars to see which one you'll stop at after work!!! That's how to kill a minimum of 2 +hours "protecting the home front."
So, if your part of the 20%, we will be glad to have you,
Oh, I forgot to include the group on afternoons who have side jobs where they can't let this job interfere with their
"reall jobs"

Until the vetting process consists of more than, "Your dad was a great guy", the Dept is screwed.
Mover, parker, bus check in 001 makes you a worker.
Wanna thrust yourself in the realms of SUPERSTARDOM?? Roll on in-progress jobs.
Freebies? AHHH those have been burned out years ago

Dahlberg
Lendino
Mulligan
"The Hat"
Lawn chairs and coolers on the upper deck after check-off...
Big bosses rolling by and shooting the breeze for a bit or just laughing and shaking their heads because they remembered when THEY did their cool-down in the same spot 20 years earlier...
"Tha Blue Hoody Police"
A good crew of good people.
For the most part...
Dahlberg got sick...
Then it got REAL fucked-up when downtown sent a succession of never been the Police lieutenants through to get their "street seasoning" before they went to a hidey-hole unit or got blessed with a gold star...

...........................
I worked with MS in 004 tact when your Mom was pushing you around in a buggy. he was a good copper then and remained a worker to his last day. when people talk about protecting the home front, this is a guy who actually did it, on the tact team then on the watch. As to his hair? He was allowed to have the long hair for medical reasons. But since you know so much about him you knew that right? Here's an idea, if you know where he hangs out, why don't you go give your opinion to his face?
Goof.
yeah, yeah, yeah, ALL those horrible bosses and you're bidding out, I wonder why. We KNOW about the DC and XO. We know, we work there too. But not every boss (oh, you have deemed a "handful of good Sgts", thanks) is horrible that "nobody can stand". That's BS

Wow...you're an idiot. Believe me junior, I'm glad I'm leaving too. People like you make it so easy to go. At no point was there any "tearing us down" as you put it. My information was regarding the bosses. If you are one (even though you claim to be a "blue shirt", then perhaps you are one that nobody can stand). If you're a P/O...well, it just leaves me with little hope for the future of the department. You see, I'm one of those guys that still actually enjoys being a police officer. I am proud of my job. I don't really care if I work in the ghetto or on the lakefront. However, I can't stand having bad bosses, who are clueless about police work. I've been doing this job a long damn time and while I respect the fact that we need supervision, such supervision must be fair and competent. These qualities are lacking in our leadership from sgts through the cmndr in 011. As I said originally, we have a handful of good sgts (and for the record, I stated that nobody could stand the LTs). Every district has bad bosses, but as was my point earlier, the good no longer outweigh the bad. When that happens, it's time to hit the bricks. If you want to stick around and get treated the way P/Os are treated in 011, by all means. But you know that the things I've said are true. Quit trying to be a hero. They don't give you any awards at retirement for a nice long career of being shit on.
011 a good place to work? Who would want to work in the ghetto!?!?

get off the soap box super cop. Just leave already, we are tired of your bitching and moaning...enjoy the next district, wish we could be there when you see all districts are basically the same: not enough blue shirts to handle the work, the chosen ones who always get taken care of, the kool aid drinking XO's, the over-staffed Caps and inside people, the bosses who are on ur ass, the POs who don't do a thing,...etc etc etc...your head will probably explode. Fool.

Allowed to have long hair for medical condition? Hey that's one I never heard of? What condition is this?
So, if your part of the 20%, we will be glad to have you,
No thanks. I'm going to be part of the 80%. Strength in numbers and I get the feeling the 20%ers are the retards.
