Captain Counseled

Can they send a captain to callback? Because they should seriously consider it:
  • SCC, good news!

    The Captain that everyone loves to hate got officially Counseled this weekend. If you recall, he flipped his shit on the midnight crew, screaming at the radio people. belittling sergeants, ripping the lieutenants. Real professional type behavior. Well, someone called FOP and even though there were numerous witnesses, Barb West refused to do anything about it and Management and Labor Affairs was called directly, a proceedings were underway shortly afterward. FOP showed up at the midnight roll call and told everyone that the Department was taking action, although minor at this point. So this ass who counsels everybody else now has a counseling form in his personnel folder. Rumor is he was pissed about being named in yet another EEOC beef, so he took it out on the watch.
A Counseling Form. It's a good start, but...

This guy has at least one, maybe more EEOC beefs against him. We've pointed out numerous times that the outflow of personnel from 011 (and other Districts where the bosses suck) should have triggered some sort of interest by downtown that something was up. Now they've taken action, albeit a minor action, against him due to his behavior.

"Where there's smoke, there's fire." Sound familiar? It has been the predominant driving force behind numerous disciplinary cases, job actions and personnel concern programs. People have been sent to callback for conduct like this with citizens, yet this guy is left supervising a District?

How about certain people take some concrete action instead of exposing taxpayers to yet another damaging monetary judgement based on knowing what this guy was up to, AND LEAVING HIM IN PLACE!

Garry McCarthy, Al Wysinger, Wayne Gulliford, Barb West - you have numerous witnesses to this incident, you have an EEOC beef working its way through the system, you have begun a paper trail that may or may not culminate in discipline, yet there he is, supervising people he belittles, disrespects and bullies. As a taxpayer, we have to ask, "What the fuck?"

Why not just list the BOSS holes name?

All you r doing is stating fact

Just put a disclaimer that you r not able to verify this boss is an asswipe.

If a person puts a beef into the FEDs it is not top secret or internal.

Has anyone looked into the antics of LT. in 15th district. He's been chasing away experienced sgt's and po's for quite some time. The average time for a bid spot on 3rd watch is 20 months. He just blew up at numerous officers, citing productivity levels and yet his chosen 2 year wonders get the pick of the litter when it comes to beats and start times but they bring in petty arrests and then do not know how to process or write the paper. This LT. uses his position to bully and intimidate those around him and yet no one downtown seems to care while the morale keeps plummeting as does the work output. He should be drowning in CR's with his type of treatment of his fellow officers.

Ah, Thomas Lemmer! The J.R. Ewing of the CPD.

You folks in 011 stay the course, continue to make noise and document that pricks every outburst and ignorant exchange with subordinates.

Give assholes like Tommy enough rope and they'll eventually hang themselves. They always do, some just take longer than others. And it sounds as though Tommy just slipped his fat head into the noose.

And if MLAS has taken notice and felt compelled to make it a big enough issue to counsel XO Buscemi, then it's just a matter of time before they launch his useless ass.

Good work, 011! Do what many before have tried - and failed - to do.

Oh my God! I have chills just thinking about the "dressing down" this poor man must have received from the commander. He must have been so worried about his future on this job after getting such an "ass chewing" from his boss. I can only imagine how scared he was when she confronted him. I sure hope he files a beef. It must have been a terrible experience. I would love to have been a "fly on the wall" to see the look on his face when she ripped him a new one. I wonder if he will sleep at night knowing how disappointed his commander is? Well, at least he gets a nice pay check for all the stress.

Ok, snap back into reality. Nothing happened and nothing will ever happen. White shirts stick together through thick and thin. Wrong or right. The guys with time all know this and it keeps us safe from "most" of them. Some are good up to LT. But they are always looking for merit promo's and it's not by being cool to the "troops." A question even a simpleton can answer... If this guy is so bad, has supposed "complaints" against him, kills the morale of young guys that the CPD needs to work hard in 011...then why is 35th keeping him there still? It's because it's white before blue. Sad but true. Stay safe guys! Better times ahead we hope.

How about the new 1100x "Quid pro quo" rule for time due? You now have to turn in a list of your activity with a time due request form. So in order to get a day off, you have to write citizens or your slip will be denied for a host of reasons. Can't he and all the other involved people who refuse to grant a time due request for these reasons get in trouble for this? When the CR's and civil actions start to come from the citizens, will the department understand the defense of the officer that she or he felt the need to write someone just so she or he could get a day off?

This is not directed towards the P.O.'s in the 011th district, just the upper ranks. It appears that you have stupid leading stupid and that never has a positive or productive outcome.

They cannot deny you Time Due because of lack of activity. Besides Pdays submitted 10 days in advance all other Time Due (C/U, BFD's) submitted 7 days prior go by seniority. That is a very easy grievance to win if someone with less seniority is off before you. That is part of our new contract. The key is to submit it at least 7 days prior.

Are you going to do anything more than cry on the blog about it?

Or are you going to initiate the grievance process once you've been denied the use of your time? The bosses can't arbitrarily decide who gets time off based on activity. It's really rather simple as it is clearly stated in a memorandum of understanding in our current contract: ALL USE OF ELECTIVE TIME OFF WILL BE DETERMINED BY SENIORITY

If you've been unfairly denied a day off and you can prove that somebody with less time was granted time due while you were not, do what you have to do and get that paper trail going. If you think it's bad trying to get time off when it's 10° below zero, what do you think it's going to be like in June, July and August when people want to spend time with their kids when they're out of school for the summer? And if these clowns are dumb enough to mandate activity as a stipulation for time off, try to get that in writing also. Then go see GP on the desk on afternoons with a copy of your signed denied comp time slip along with whatever note the boss has attached to it explaining why you were not given the day off. He has agreed to be the point man in 011 for the collection of documentation to forward to the FOP for when this whole thing turns into a class action grievance.

Don't just sit back and take whatever they throw at you, fight back with the tools you have at your disposal. These motherfuckers need to be put on notice that this isn't the same department it was 30 years ago.

PS - you guys crying the loudest about not being able to get a day off are the same goofs that voted for this contract, but yet you're still out there bringing in activity daily to kiss the asses of the same supervisors that hold this time off over your head. Figure it out already and do something about it or quit complaining.

Regarding the quid pro quo. He got jammed up in 023 for pulling the same shit. If you wanted a day off, he'd pull out his personal laptop where he kept a lot of officers' activity (and worked on his lectures for his side job while on the clock with the city). "You know, officer, I could use some more parkers from you if you want the day off." Beefs were filed and the old laptop was confiscated for a time. Nothing happened to Buschemi, but he did stop asking for more activity in return for days off. Goof.

Anonymous Anonymous said...

January 2014
please call attorney Anthony J. Caruso of Wessels Sherman's St. Charles, Illinois office at (630) 377-155 or FOP for LEGAL ACTION!
By: Anthony J. Caruso, Esq.
An employer has an ex-employee who performed services for the company. This individual is now threatening the company and or its workers with potential violence or harm. What can an Illinois Employer do? There may now be help for the employer.
On January 1, 2014, the Illinois Workplace Violence Prevention Act became law. Under this new law, companies/employers can limit the access of potentially violent individuals in their workplace.
What Individuals can be Denied Access to the Workplace?
• A person employed or permitted to work or perform a service for remuneration;
• A member of a board of directors for any organization;
• An elected or appointed public officer; and
• A volunteer, independent contractor, agency worker or any other person who performs services for an employer at the employer's place of work.
What Must the Employer Prove to Get an Order of Protection?
I. Unlawful Violence:
An employee has suffered unlawful violence (any act of violence, harassment, or staling as defined by the laws of the State of Illinois);

OR

Credible Threat of Violence:
A credible threat of violence from the person (a statement or course of conduct that does not serve a legitimate purpose and that causes a reasonable person to fear for the person's safety or for the safety of the person's immediate family);

AND
II. Employee's Place of Work:
The unlawful violence has been carried out of the employee's place of work or the credible threat of violence can reasonably be construed to be carried out at the employee's place of work by the person
III. Irreparable Harm:
An employee may obtain an Order of Protection under the Illinois Domestic Violence Act, if the employer:
• Files an affidavit that shows, to the satisfaction of the court, reasonable proof that an employee has suffered either unlawful violence or a credible threat of violence by the defendant;
AND
• Demonstrates that great or irreparable harm has been suffered, or will be suffered, or is likely to be suffered by the employee.
Is Employer Actually Required to Get an Order of Protection?
The employer may have a duty of care under the General Duty Clause of OSHA or under VESSA (the Illinois Victims Economic Safety Security Act) to prevent violence in the workplace. Also, the employer may have a common law duty to prevent violence in the workplace. A negligent failure to act (when the employer had knowledge of potential violence) may hold the employer liable for injuries incurred by the employee or co-workers.
In short, time will tell as to how often employers will use this new tool in Illinois to prevent violence in the workplace. The effort and legal expense in securing an Order of Protection may deter some employers. Also, employers may encourage the affected employee to secure on their own time and legal expense an Order of Protection (if the threat is clearly personal rather than business related)

As was suggested years ago...

All these bad, incompetent supervisors should be busted to career service rank, put in the same DOG, ordered to report to the Bulk Storage warehouse at 39th & Michigan, locked in the place for their tours of duty and made to "supervise," mistreat, scream at, jack-pot, counsel, SPAR and C/R each other...

They would rather die than be locked away where they can't harm subordinate Officers with their antics.

HQ and City Hall encourages this nonsense under the guise of "creative tension" and "artificial stressors" to "get more" out of the intentionally diminished Police resource.

You see...
The m/fer's in charge are desperately trying to overlay Policing with corporate sourced bean counter-ism.

Although it must be pointed out that over the years there have legendarily horrid men and women in the supervisory ranks of CPD.

Two additional things needed to weed out bad people with guns who supervise other people with guns...

Wonderlic Test.
Psychological Evaluation...

Most Policemen are "damaged" from having to immerse themselves in and swim amongst the God-Awful stuff floating in the bloody shit-mud that is society's backwash.

Police supervisors, ideally, SHOULD BE people who come from the same experience and GET IT...

A lot of these bad supervisors were the pets, the pampered and the playthings of bosses and politicians.
Note the overweening sense of entitlement and impunity these bad supervisors have in common.

When you finally see these individuals being punished, terminated, imprisoned made to pay significant portions of their net worth for their hijinks...

Of course...
There are some Coppers who need to pay for the way they play but that's another post in itself.

Kill Clout...
That's the short answer.

I wish this asshole was in our district. I would lodge an EEOC beef and then contact my attorney and let the court system do its job.

This Captain is a disgrace and should be fired. Not counseled but fired.

Sue this piece of shit and everyone who doesnt take the appropriate action to make our work environment a safe and workable one.

Hey captain asshat, if you get tired of 011 come to north and west a bit, I will gladly sue the shit out of you and all the upper management asshats who refuse to do the right thing.

I don't get it. Most of the bosses used to scream 25 yrs ago. Even in the private sector bosses would scream and have outbursts. How is that a violation? Ripping someone a new one was an everyday occurrence. Even at stand up Roll Calls guys would get berated to a lesser extent.

Some people wont take shit from people who bc of some rank or whatever title that they think empowers them to scream. New day, people stand up for themselves. Sounds like were a victim and didnt know it.

Sad but true, he will never change. People like him are born and raised like this and no matter how much people talk crap or he hears about it, they are who they are. You can not change someone who has a defective mean spirited heart. From R&D to 19 to Mass to 003 to 11 to wherever he goes next,,every sergeant and officer will always hate and have disrespect for him & for good reason. He might have a brain here and there with GOs but something he will never be able to master is 'people skills' and is secretly jealous of bosses that are admired and respected. Let him continue to live like this because as the prior post stated people like this can't help themselves and always find a way to screw themselves and when they retire they are just another old civilian that can look back at their long career and realize that they made hundreds of decent, good hearted peoples lives miserable. Let them relish in that fact. What a legacy to leave behind.

But...they did transfer Louie Arrado & he WAS a real Captain, not a merit hack. One tough MF back in the day. He WAS the working police and not a pencil neck chicken shit stoolie. He knew his job and wasn't one to be messed with by any boss, he called out the big ear DC and got himself launched. Stood his ground.

Do you have any idea how ridiculous you sound saying you have Doctors that are blaming heart damage to a Captain of police?

You all sound like a bunch of children. What happened to this job?

3/03/2015 02:55:00 PM

You're part of the problem on this job...

You think that Policemen are supposed to just shut up and take bullying and harassment not very well disguised as supervision?

It wouldn't be such a problem is these "management" heathens were actually subjected to discipline up to and including termination, significant loss of net worth to the aggrieved officers and imprisonment.

Pretty much the same things that would happen to a peon Blue Shirt if they were to give similar affront to civilians.

Right?

Or are you inferring that these piss-poor managers by virtue of being management, are exempt from law, rules and regulations and general orders?

You're a hard-head just like dude on the corner...

What happened to this job is that there are people who think it's perfectly fine for Policemen to be ridden and harassed by these classless savages masquerading as Police supervisors.

And people like YOU seek to blame/shame The Policeman for doing what he can to find relief.

As if the shit on the streets doesn't make for enough grief and aggravation...

It's a good thing when a doctor asks his patient what his stressors are and the patient can name the source.

NO ONE...
Should be compelled to tolerate mistreatment as a condition of employment.

How about the new 1100x "Quid pro quo" rule for time due? You now have to turn in a list of your activity with a time due request form. So in order to get a day off, you have to write citizens or your slip will be denied for a host of reasons. Can't he and all the other involved people who refuse to grant a time due request for these reasons get in trouble for this? When the CR's and civil actions start to come from the citizens, will the department understand the defense of the officer that she or he felt the need to write someone just so she or he could get a day off?

I sure hope that idiot puts that mandate in writing. It sure would come in handy to include that with your grievance. They can't do that shit.... unless everyone lets them get away with it by not challenging it.

Gulliford is a good guy. We had a multiple merit Captain who was pissed off that he wound up on midnights in our Westside district and took it out on the troops. He canceled the watch Christmas party and did everything he could do to make everyone miserable.

One of our gray-haired whiteshirts talked to Gulliford and methodically laid out what was going wrong with our watch. Gulliford talked to the Captain and when the Captain realized he wasn't the only one in the world with clout he changed overnight and things were much better for everyone including the Captain and it wasn't too long before he left.

Thanks again Wayne.

Has anyone looked into the antics of LT. in 15th district. He's been chasing away experienced sgt's and po's for quite some time. The average time for a bid spot on 3rd watch is 20 months. He just blew up at numerous officers, citing productivity levels and yet his chosen 2 year wonders get the pick of the litter when it comes to beats and start times but they bring in petty arrests and then do not know how to process or write the paper. This LT. uses his position to bully and intimidate those around him and yet no one downtown seems to care while the morale keeps plummeting as does the work output. He should be drowning in CR's with his type of treatment of his fellow officers.

019 became rough after 023 and 019 combined, and we lost a lot of officers. When manpower goes down significantly, savages come to 019 from the red line and cause trouble knowing they won't be caught. That plus the out of control drunk cubs fans, and all the festivals. The problem with 019 is too few officers, TAC, etc and can't get around the district fast enough to catch anyone. If you feel differently, bid there, maybe you can improve things.

Somebody mentioned that nothing happens to Captains. I know of one in particular that has stolen so much police benefit money, being a full blown gambling junky. He also too the contributions from the po's that was supposed to be used entirely for a departing g DC's going away gift. When the gift was presented, the po's were gasping at how little a gift the contributions bought. He routinely tells people they are "dead to him", when they don't beg for his friendship. I can't believe he hasn't been taken down by some entity.

I never met the woman buy wasn't there a female captain from 010 who got demoted. Happend some time ago before I got there. There were stories how she led prayers vigils in the lock-up and almost set the W.C.s office on fire with candles.

Elizabeth Olson - ol' Blue Eyes she was called because of the blue tinted giant glasses she wore. Took prisoners out of lockup and had prayer vigils with them. Also destroyed evidence regarding a police impersonator and told the Desk Sergeant that the offender had promised to never do it again and should be released. Desk Sergeant called the Street Deputy and he relived her of duty on the spot. I think that was before she made Captain and they still promoted her.

How is it that cpd does not have a "quota" and yet in order to qualify for the VRI, they have set a "minimum" activity to qualify for the overtime. Isn't this grounds for a law suit??

That woman was a total wack job. I met her right after she made sgt. She told me how she studied, she read all the orders and the law etc. into a tape recorder and then played it back over and over with the speaker next to her pillow as she slept.

One night we had a guy strip off his clothes and walk out in the water of Lake Michigan and start swimming to Michigan. I was wearing the leather jacket, it was cold. This guy was another wacko. He wasn't going to last too long. She was ordering him to come back to shore over the car bullhorn. I guess it was something. The CFD helo showed up and dropped a raft on the guy and then the raft blew to Michigan. A diver dropped off the helo and pulled the guy to shore. He was blue and babbling.

I have been saying this for years . Working in many south side districts can shorten your career by years. You can only take so much. And, the reverse holds true. Working in most northside districts can be healthier and you can workmore years is you choose. Better areas to work, better places to eat and not the constant BS of working in black inner city areas. The stress from the community and from the bosses can be hard on the heart.

I came on the job in '68 and never heard of someone " taking to the lot" a supervisor. I don't believe any supervisor should be allowed to scream at someone or belittle them. I spent 25 years as a supervisor and was never guilty of that. Make someone do their job, but do it the correct way. And, I have worked in private industry when I retired and managers " screaming" at employees is a rarity. HR will get on you in a minute.I think I worked with Lemmer in 007 when he made lieutenant. If this is the same guy, yes, he is a pompous ass.

Not very smart on the city's part. Full time team to part time team? Huge liability involved. Less training time especially with the threats of terrorism and active shooter? Who is responsible? I pay a lot of taxes for the safety of my family. SWAT needs to always be trained and ready to go. Please give me additional info. I would like to contact those responsible for tjus decision.

I hate to break it to you guys, but that's how SWAT teams are put together in the suburbs. They are comprised of officers from various municipalities, get together to train two or three days per month, a little more in the summer. But the guys who make up suburban SWAT teams have their own take home cars, supplied from their municipalities.

Listen you cry babies in 015... You want to cry about being asked about activity. If you can't even do YOUR JOB and bring in the bare minimum to just keep people off your backs, then you deserve to get screwed with.

Does Lt S screw with people who actually being in ANY work? Do you think it's fare you collect the same paycheck as your fellow officers for doing SHIT? I don't. And if you don't have any self respect for yourself, how do you expect anyone else to have respect for you.

You are the same people who bitched about Babs... I'll give it to you, it sucked while she was in 015,but now you are just finding another excuse to not do work. GROW THE FUCK Up!!!!

As far as getting ur car... We know exactly who those officers are, one of them is a good guy and the other is an idiot... Your time shouldn't give you ANYTHING you want. Should is have SOME impact, maybe. But honestly, the younger kids will keep you commander of the Lt's and Sgt's ass cause they are going to do the work. Which in turn keeps them off the backs of even the dogs like you who want to complain.

Grow the fuck up and do your job!!!!
