100 to 1 odds that the ballpouches on the Sat Teams will be sandbagging the usual DOPWs and one baggers for their almighty numbers.

Never-you-mind that the guys & gals who couldn't get the day off to spend with family are now trying to enjoy what they scraped together for a meal with their coworkers.

You HairGels need to figure this shit out already. Unless it's urgent, the holidays are meant for relaxing. And NO, that TVB/Impound IS NOT urgent.

Dear diary,
I know it's been a long time coming but I have been so busy doing my male police bonding by growing a mustache for Movember with my guys. We all made a secret pact to grow mustaches to look just like our past XO MR. It has been quite an experience! I think the winner though might be a girl/guy... Boystown is so strange to work in... Sometimes even I don't know if I should sit or stand while peeing.... Anyhoo, I don't want to go into a long diatribe yet... But wait till you hear all about this years bidding and the tragedies that ensue... Until then Happy Thanksgiving diary and happy thanksgiving to all my fellow tactical officers! Don't fight over the last wing!

From a troll: Happy Thanksgiving to all you coppers as my Grandfather used to say and your families. Most of us appreciate the job you folks, CFD and other public workers do everyday. This year Pontiac PD officer Casey Kohlmeier and his family are in the forefront of our prayer and concerns. A public employee in service to the public who lost his
life in our service. That was not and is not taken lightly.

Who's got the pool this year for the times on the annual 'Drumstick Massacre.'
Every year on Thanksgiving someone gets shot or stabbed after he/she eats, grabs more of, or takes the last piece of turkey.
My money's on 1930 hrs.

And for the rednecks that start a fire or get 3rd degree burns by dropping a FROZEN turkey into boiling oil to deep fry them I'm going with 33 nationally.

OT- How the hell does a city give a test at two different times for the police entrance exam. My daughter has the 4:30 pm testing time which not only screws with her entire schedule for the day, now she can't go to her schools graduation.

She already tried to change the time with the city, but you obviously know the answer to that request. You do it for one person, then you have to do it for all.

Just when you think these idiots can't do anything right, they prove it time and again.

Spent my last three years on the job having a three day weekend each and every one. #2 on the seniority list when I retired over eight years ago. Gotta admit, there was better man power then that allowed me that freedom. But, back to the original poster: Your'e doing the right thing and I'm glad for you, but, you know what? Retirement is much butter. Get your ass outta there! lol

There is something wrong with your thinking. Instead of being happy and thankful you were able to get the whole Thanksgiving weekend off, you have to leave this comment instead of feeling compassion for those that have to work and remembering the Thanksgivings you had to work because you didnt have the seniority.
Why be thankful and appreciative of being off?instead you choose it as an opportunity to dig your fellow workers

Sergeants got an email from the sergeants association that the contract passed city council. Great. Now the Department is flowing the new DSS order where sergeants will take on more responsibilities. Was this discussed during negotiations? Nowhere in the arbitration decision does it mention Sergeants taking on more responsibilities.

It seems the city bargained in bad faith and pulled a fast one over the sergeants association. And unions are to trust the city? We are to trust the Superintendent? I find the timing ironic that just days after the contract was passed the city, Superintendent changes the role of the sergeant. Pathetic. Sergeants association better fight the heck of of this.

Please tell your daughter to find another job…We don't need to hear her whining about how she can't work midnights because she's so special. If it doesn't suit her to take the test at 4:30pm….what will she think when she finds out that she will be on the job for 10 years before she can get an afternoon start time on a bid?

Answered up for a transport for two of 024 finest tac boys once. About half way there one of the two gets on the air screaming "where's our transport!" Me and my partner, after hearing that think the scene is going to shit so we hit the lights and sirens. When we get on the scene, we see the 2 tac wonders standing there with their offender. We ask what the urgency was and one tac guy looks at us and tells us "sorry, but my partner is hungry and he thought you guys were taking too long to get here."



Take the offender into 024 and proceeded to wait for 30 minutes. Just as we were about to call them, they stroll in with their lunch. They had made a detour and got their lunch before coming in .

Happy Thanksgiving to all 1st and foremost.

OT- How the hell does a city give a test at two different times for the police entrance exam. My daughter has the 4:30 pm testing time which not only screws with her entire schedule for the day, now she can't go to her schools graduation.

She already tried to change the time with the city, but you obviously know the answer to that request. You do it for one person, then you have to do it for all.

Just when you think these idiots can't do anything right, they prove it time and again.

Tell your daughter to attend her graduation. The CPD is not for her or you.

From my family to yours, and on behalf of a grateful nation, Thank You for his service.
May God bless him and your family.

For all you hater of our ceo of Alpha girls and WTA, she took care of that young lady getting her date changed so she can go to her graduation in the Caymen Islands.

She will make a great Alpha girl when or ceo helps her prepare for the test and hiring.

We are over 2,ooo mebers and growing everyday. You guys can apply for membership in the WTA but you will be on probation of a year.

Agree and enjoyed it. 017 isn't in Tunney's ward but sounded like he's friends for a long time with the sister of the PO who arranged for the lunch. She and her daughter brought and served it. You'd never know the PO has clout in the family. He's real police and a good guy.

Two more on the north side too... Addison and Campbell in front of Lane Tech (to go with the one on a Western just south of Addison), and Irving Park Rd east of Clark St, west of the el structure, between the two cemeteries.

11/29/2013 12:32:00 AM

So, now a cemetery qualifies as a PARK?



No, this one is a real stretch, thus proving this is just a cash-grab. Along the cemetery walls, under the el structure, there's Challenger park. It's the narrow strip of land that runs between the cemetery and the street. If it's 40 feet wide, I'd be surprised. You can't even see it if you are on Irving Park Rd unless you're under the el structure. You might see a person walking a dog over there, but it's not like there's a field house or bustling park activity.

You're a pathetic jagoff. I guess your feelings are hurt. Everyone is trying to make the best of being at work on Thanksgiving and then jagoffs just have to go out and get their one bagger. Then quite naturally the prisoner gets dope sick and starts puking his guts out,and the next thing you know some other copper has to take the jagoff to the hospital and sit on him for hours while you and your jagoff partner sit back and enjoy your last 5 hours hiding!

Must be a lot of low seniority new guys on the job reading this blog. It's called police humor, something you new guys don't get. We'll suck it up new guy! I can't tell you how may times I lost my 3 day weekend when I was a ppo. Even after probation you get the call your dog changed, and your were staying on midnight s ,back when we rotated, but you new pu**ies wouldn't know about that now would you. Changing watches every 28 days, changing your dog every 28 days, but you all are offended because some copper busts your balls by saying he is enjoying thanksgiving off. So I say good for you, we'll deserved after attaining seniority on this job, as for those who are upset, and have hurt feelings cause some old timer has the holiday off and busts your balls over it, go f**k yourselves, get some time on, the lets see how you are when you can take off the holiday at will because of seniority. Remember all we got left is seniority on this job but you new goofs don't get, too much college, not enough high school. So with that have fun working ladies while I am RDO on Christmas Eve, and DOH on Christmas Day, cause after 24 yrs and 2,000 arrests I gots the time ....... Oh and stay safe........

sorry, you completly lost me and any sympathy when you said that people working the desk and lockup deserve a chill day.. sorry jerkoff but your whole day is a break. shut up and do your paperwork and process the prisoner.. i know it takes a whole 10 minutes per prisoner but you will get over it. Another lazy mutt heard from. How dare you criticize working coppers when you are hiding inside... If your working inside are YOU too much of a coward to work a beat car?? Obviously if you cant even process a prisoner or approve an inventory in a district. wise up stroke and start realizing that in reality we are all laughing at you while you work inside not with you... we dont like your kind...

There is something wrong with your thinking. Instead of being happy and thankful you were able to get the whole Thanksgiving weekend off, you have to leave this comment instead of feeling compassion for those that have to work and remembering the Thanksgivings you had to work because you didnt have the seniority.
Why be thankful and appreciative of being off?instead you choose it as an opportunity to dig your fellow workers

11/28/2013 11:48:00 AM


do you wanna know why??? because I love my family. I love my time off. I love taking trips. I love travelling with my family. I love hanging out with other people who are not cops. I dont like most cops. I get along with my coworkers but thats all they are. Im only a police officer because its good money and good benefits. the tactical hardons and ultra go getter police can have it... Ive been there done that. I did my tact, gang sos etc. In general, I dont like coppers, your ok to work with but otherwise 85 percent of you are puds.. not all, but most. so yes, too bad for you having to work I will be home with the family enjoying our time together.. ahhh, retirement is so damn close I can smell it. then, its off to siesta key florida.

I work my eat car on days, I retire in a few months and will have a blast with the wife in Florida and enjoy our kids and grand kids... My bags are packed... Enjoy this job and the hardo's that come with it... To the truly good and normal people on this job who don't act like this job is life lay low, get out alive and get to that retirement. For the bitter toolbags and "lifers" on the job get a life it's not all worth it.

You are the epitome of an all-talk, no-action goof and most of us would rather hit the medical than work an interminable tour with the likes of you.

@@@@@@@@@@@@@

You see perfect example... The only thing you have to bash me on is work related ... That's it! It's not all about work, sgts or doing paper. Believe me when I'm at work all I do is have fun, like I said I get along with my coworkers but after work it stops there. My paper??? Who gives a shot about paper. I fill out my reports and move on. Another example of another knob on this dept who can only talk about "the job".... And me tellin war stories??? About this job? No thanks, never have and never will.. And old folks home... A lot of time for that, I'm only 53 my man.. But another great comeback try though work work work don't let it control your life!!! You see it as me being an asshole! I see it as showing you that you can live stress free and enjoy your family in life and reap the benefits of this job.. So many Angry people who need to chill out and enjoy life... We only get one shot at it you know...
