Sergeants Made
Thirty-one is certainly an odd number for a promotional class:
- Allen, J 020
Banks, Y 142/123
Collins, T 114
Crawford, C 002/376
Desmond, J 004
Glenke, J 022
Gugger, G 002
Guswiler, N 189
Hawkins, T 015
Julian, T 001/124
Kennedy, B 022
Kochanny, P 002
Medina, J 010/116
Nicpoin, A 017/211
Nowak, M 011
O'Keefe D 312
Olsen, N 004
Parizanski, J 018
Perez, A 025
Perez, A 024
Pickett, D 003
Putrow, J 009
Schmitz, P 189
Schnoor, K 116
Schultz, E 011
Steinbrenner, R 005
Stevens, M 010
Utz, J 014
Vanoourek, J 014
Vargas, J 014
Wasielewski C 007
So who was the 31st who couldn't be left out of the first class? Because we certainly wouldn't expect another class for at least a year now.

A majority out of patrol i like it.
No merit on this list. And 21 of 31 is from patrol which rarely happens. Usually opposite.
Detectives, sgt's and Lt's all graduating the same day make for a great photo op after the big election.
How many where merit?
Is it true no merit??
31 off the list, no merit, so don't hate.....
Congratulations to all who made it!!!!
Wow!!!! No Detectives? They are the smartest guys in the room. Just ask them.
This is odd indeed. Why only 31 especially when you just took 24 Sgt. and made them Lieutenants. You bolstered the Sgt. ranks by 7? Why bother? It seems like this is a post election public relations move by the Mayor, gearing up to really fight crime this summer. Or McLoose-lips was spouting off on the radio the other day and said a Sgt. class is starting and then had to scramble and put one together to save face.
Apparently only MERIT Detectives are promoted to Sergeant.
Was there any merit?
Schnoor, wasn't his dad a tact LT in 013 a few years ago?
Nicpon? Robards-Dillon strikes again. Taking care of her Babies' baby daddy...Should call her the Queen maker, made a Brain dead Lt, who dresses like a skank and now this mush. When will the sillyness end?
ya ya ya, who cares.
More sgts, instead of more police officers, when we are short officers, and have a top heavy dept. With five sgts per watch already. Makes no sense.
Look for the person who was in a clouted unit and moved to a district on management.
usually 3 to 4 months before list is created.
Cmon Gary you don't believe that you were the 1st SUPE to pull this scam.
Good luck guys and girls!!
How is a guy in call back getting promoted? There shouldn't be any full duty people in callback and you must be full duty to be promoted-hello #32 on the list...
nicpoin.... looks like Dilian's private study group pays off again.
Congrats to all. The unfortunate part now, is losers that dislike u for some incident 10 years ago will come on here and post about what a dog ass, etc u are. You all made it no matter what they say. It's jealousy and immaturity. Enjoy the promotion. Don't read into the negative shit on here and the number one goal is to take care of the troops. C ya out there.
God help whoever gets J Allen. What a complete stroke.
Wow, YB made Sergeant the easy way.
Didn't require any studying
Great
Any merit picks used or all off list?
Still down about 45 sgts. I'd expect another class before summer.
What's with the one from call back?
Where are they all going
Congrats Vanoourek! People have their opinions about him, but a really sharp guy and one of the hardest working coppers I've come across on this job. Good luck!
how about one more class ofEVIDENCE TECHNICIANS ?need em trained before summer!!
wow ~ Matt Stevens? Daddy sure takes care of his kids!
Congrats, enjoy your new headaches.
I'm guessing #31 was the Schnoor girl. Her maiden name is Chiczewski ,as in Ralph's daughter. That's the one they had to get to.
Congrats JA
SCC....it's not only odd, it's PRIME.
Sorry. I couldn't resist!
I don't think there's any merit on this.
Well I guess that puts to rest the old list vs new list. This group appears to be from the NEW list.
Congrats to everyone who studied and made it legit.
I heard the 31st guy is related to Copper, Secondcity. What a clout family!
DEL PEARSON?
Must be nice to be taken care of.....
Chinaman
who's merit?
J. U. From 014 is what's wrong with this Department.
CLOUT
Congrats to all who made it by score! Does anyone know how many people took parts 1 and 2?
Congrats Terry and Carl.
Wasieliewski? Hell of a nice guy. Very very book smart but as clueless as they come. Congrats but will make a great desk Sgt or somewhere behind the scenes at 35th or something.
So it's official:
This is the NEW Exam so the old one is down.
Also, NO MERIT hacks on this one.
Can anyone spot any names that potentially had a "special insight" to study material?
You're 100% right., 31 does seem like an odd number for a class. But it's not that weird when you do math CPD-style. The 5th floor was told that they could make 60 new Sgts this year. However, there wasn't time to get new merit interviews done and still have these new white-shirts on the street before summer. So, they compromised. Class of 31 now (all off the list) with a second class of 29 to be announced later this year. But wait, you didn't think that merit was dead did you? The second class will take up those merit picks that class #1 left on the table. Class 2 will be 11 list and 18 merit making the total merit selection rate for both classes exactly 30%.
I see one of JR-D's cabana boys making it!
It's amazing what happens to a list when merit is limited. Not sure of percentage used here, but look at all the names that made it from actual patrol districts compared to the special units. Am I mistaken or did not one detective make the first class, they are historically given one merit spot per area.
They basically filled the vacancies from the people in LT school.
too many chiefs not enough indians… Another depletion of manpower.
When was the last time there was a class with no merit?
More than a few bosses kids. Connect the dots. Remember that the test is legit.
So these are the guys who had the answers. Nice
Congrats to all. Secret study groups paid off. No matter who makes sergeant off new list merit or not congrats. Your true colors will show whether you deserve it or not. If you were an idiot before stripes and a kiss butt you will still be one.
And how many new recruits are they hiring to replace those Sgt. spots, along with the ones who retire?
Yolanda Banks - taken care of by Ruthie her whole career. Has she ever been on the street?
Wow!
Banks was 31 for sure!
With all the railing you do against the merit system you would think your initial response to a promotion list based solely on scores would be "congrats" and then you might wonder why there was such an odd number. Instead you fixate on that, and the number is odd, admittedly, but we don't know how it was determined, and whoever that 31st person was, they still made it on score.
Well done Jay, congrats!!!
Okeefe is a stroke
Congratulations to all. Remember all, your job now is to make it easier for those working for you to do their jobs. Watch out for them, do your best to protect them. And remember that there is a difference between a mistake of the heart and a mistake of the head.
Who cares.....no merit and 31 people who scored well enough to be in the 1st class. It's how it should be done with promotions until the dept. Defines what MERIT is......
And how many new recruits are they hiring to replace those Sgt. spots, along with the ones who retire?

You are wrong. I know of several people who studied hard and did well on the test. The next time a promotional exam comes up, study your butt off. The worse that can happen is you don't make it. The best that can happen is you do make it. Or, you can be a whiner like yourself and just keep complaining. Congratulations to those who made it on their own.
No merit and people complain. 30% merit people still complain. Can't win with you people. Is it so hard to believe that some of these people actually studied and did well. I know of a few that have absolutely no clout whatsoever And actually read the huge stacks of orders they were told too read. Jeez!! Give it a rest!!!
Quite a few bosses kids made it. If it was legit good for them if not. It's the clouted cpd way. Just wait because ms brother in law who is married to js also will make it. He never had a bad spot on this department. Oh well back to the old way of being taken care of
There are some good ones on that list.
Sargeant Pickett!!!
If they plan on eliminating an entire watch by switching to a 2 shift schedule, then why do we need more sergeants and lieutenants?
Hahaha!! You have to love this department. More than just a few kids of supervisors. I'm really sure they all studied for thousands of hours and are just really good test takers. How dare anyone think they were given the test questions before hand! I guess you just have to expect it. I wonder what it feels like to work in a real police department??
There are NO merit promotions in this class. That's zero. So,congrats. Stop your theories of who's who. Everyone complains about merit & for good reason.
These people took the test, scored the highest & were promoted in exact order.
If you bitch here, nobody can help you. This is what we all asked for.
A promotion out of callback? Must have had a lot of time to study.
Been on the job close to 30 years and on every promotional list you can count on the following names. Kennedy, Guswiler, Shnoor and Stevens. Must all be good test takers.
Wasieliewski? Hell of a nice guy. Very very book smart but as clueless as they come. Congrats but will make a great desk Sgt or somewhere behind the scenes at 35th or something.
4/09/2015 08:32:00 AM
Wasielewski is soft.
Congrat to M. Stevens you'll make a great Sgt. Hope you don't end up with a whole watch of rubihals!
Thank GOD!!!! Thank god none of the smart detectives in the accademy now- made sgt! Thank god. These new Det's are some of the dumbest ever seen. The staff and bosses who have been coming in over the last weeks cannot believe this is the best we can do.
DOGS.

Yes they are. When you step in your own shit because you're not the smartest guy in the room, they show up and make it smell good. Try to remember that next time you do something stupid.
About 90 percent of these comments mention the word merit. Or if it isn't merit it's about a study group. This job has and will always be this way do deal with it and quit whining about it. I'm sure you knew what you were signing up for when you got a city job. I retired after 25 years, no merit, just a patrolman. Who cares? You make good money and you can work or not work. So it's a pretty good job if you think about it. Yes I've complained to fellow officers about things but you tell me another job out there that pays this much whether you work hard or not. These young kids on this job talk too much and complain too damn much. Go to roll call, listen to the bs, sign out your car and have fun with your buddies. That's what the best thing that police work had to offer.
No doubt it's Schnoor. Daughter of the Ralph the Chisler. None of his kids every worked the street and now for sure they never will. White bosses! I'll keep stealing time thanks. Good luck catching me.
Maybe #31 had the same score and time on the job as #30 and they felt that they should be promoted together.
I know the CFD has in their contract that like scores are promoted together....ijs
Did you ever think no merit because cpd is being looked at caela for certification. When they ask you tell the truth merit promotions have ruined this job and city.

YB is going to be a horrible Sgt
Hopefully she changes her attitude and know that it's all about the PO's that put in hard work and effort.
Hopefully she don't come in shitting all over everyone and take care of her people or she will be in for a rude welcome aboard.

I am sorry to tell you, but once you put on a white shirt, it is a completely different ball game. In sergeant school they teach you first and foremost, you are a supervisor. You are not a buddy or a friend. You as a supervisor have duties and responsibilities. If you don't carry out your duties and responsibilities then you will put your pay check in trouble. Sorry, I have a mortgage to pay and kids to support. I have a job to do. If you as a blue shirt want to avoid trouble, then don't get into trouble in the first place.
Wait Julian,T is in detective pre service right now! Is it the same guy?

Actually that's not the worse "you don't make it"
The worse is the time that your family cannot make up. It takes time to study, go to classes, and take the test. It takes money to spend the night at McCormick place overnight so that your fresh. It takes money when you burn comp time to study. All so a connected person with less knowledge gets promoted because of a poorly graded test or clout. FU buddy. Some people sailed through that test 7 ways to Sunday because they studied and received a score +400. Other people didn't even finish the last 2 questions on the test or answer the SWAT question and they are under 200. Your a jerk for maintaining that honor should be directed toward a flawed system.

Does anyone have anything nice to say? Like, great job scoring in the top 1% of test takers! Good luck to the new sergeants.

It's not just about the bs merit process this dept has. It's the fact that only a certain few get to be in "special study groups". For the poor schmucks who paid over 1,000 dollars for Bernstein it must really suck. It must really suck to have a glimmer of hope that it's actually legit and then get trumped by people who can memorize test questions well. As soon as you wake up and realize what dept you work for you'll feel better. CLOUT RULES in Chicago. Always has and always will.

4/09/2015 12:56:00 PM
Once and for all, the 2 shift schedule does not increase manpower. It actually decreases manpower since there are 3 DOG's that are RDO per day. With the 2 shifts, there are still at least 6 different rolls calls (3 for the day shift and 3 for the night shift). The 2 shift schedule does reduce OT (court and extensions of tour) though, and it may eliminate the need for VRI.

Congrats to those POs who made it the honest way, without someone giving them the answers in advance. For the 1-2 who allegedly were given the answers, keep in mind that your juice will not be able to protect you when the lawsuits come down. This city has enough people in a position of responsibility that do not have a clue.

OT: How does PO/Nurse MM in the Medical Section get away with putting her first cousin Sgt DC from the Court Section on ambulatory status immediately as soon as DC goes on the medical? No phone call or visit required. It's a good scam because DC never has to stay home while on the medical. Chief Williams and Deputy Chief Shear are aware of this, and yet it continues.

To: asshole who says u it must be nice to be white on CPD. FUCK U. It is nice to know how to read and focus on the list of orders or even know your job. Maybe you're one of the "special" "merit" selections that knows you're going straight to commander like 75% of the other "merit" thieves who've stolen promotions and weren't smart enough to pass part one. Either way, enjoy you're time in a beat car loser. Not racist, just the truth.

Son.
You have a lot to learn how things work.
Christopher Kapa was the Sgt who helped save Del Pearson's life. He was in this last Lt class and no qualms with whether this was "merit" or score. However, Del Pearson is the epitome of a "merit" Sgt and I hope they have a class this year to include him. If he does not "deserve merit" I'm not sure what any other police officer could do to attain "merit status." I'm not sure how many contact cards, movers, parkers, school absentees would matter. Oh wait it's who you know.... even above getting shot and almost dying. Be safe!
Congrats PK. Good guy, smart guy.

4/09/2015 09:22:00 PM
Some of the Training Academy classes are college credits and some of his military courses may have been, too. Plus, he can get 'life credit' at a bunch of local colleges. He's more than halfway there, so he (not you) should pull up his bootstraps and go check on that.
YB has the worst attitude and caused every one of the polygraphers to want to leave. She made it her business to let everyone know that the Chief of BSS was calling her phone all day long and say it out loud just so people would know who she is connected with. I bet Chief W pulls some strings so he can bring her evil and dumb back here. I still don't believe she was smart enough to score that high unless she was studying from the test and with her connection to the Chief, that is definitely a possibility. She takes the cake from dumb, dumb and dumber. Watch and see. Commanders look out. You will be getting a second watch phone call.
Vanourek is a total arrogant stroke. He knows everything and you can not tell him anything. He was disliked in 24 and in 14. Good luck to the district that gets him.
It is my understanding that Nowak and Hawkins will be good supervisors due to the love of the "D"

But the rest of what happened, and what was said, and what is on video... was wrong.

Something is seriously wrong with you if you think that shooting was close to being justified. If you're on the job, you need to review the use of force model and Illinois law. No good officer can look at that video and say that the officer was justified.

Wrong. He can take it without college. Just needs 60 credit hours to get promoted off the list or merit. Just have your friend take classes at a city college or one of the diploma mills that offer classes at the academy and your man is all set.

Except for me. I hated midnights more. I went 28 days without sleep except for terrible sleep on my days off. I hated midnights so much because I ceased to be able to function. I worked an entire 8 hour tour of duty without a gun. Empty holster for 8 hours and didn't notice it until I put my empty gun belt in the locker.
Did you hate midnights more than that?
"""had that offender in North Carolina obeyed the POLICE and submit to his arrest during the traffic stop he would still be ALIVE today! NOT GUILTY!"""
I'd have told him, "I'll give you a head start of 5 mins". A warrant for failure to pay child support? Your kidding. I wouldnt even put the running asshole on the radio. Why risk coppers lives responding for something more common then jay walking?

If you're going to bait people, at least get the state correct goof.
Don't believe for a second that these are honest promotions. Hawkins has been taken care of the whole 5 years he's been on the job. Right off of probation he goes to a robbery team and hasn't been on a beat car since but he knows enough to get promoted. Didn't take the extra classes. I'm sure a lot of these people got special "study" guide before the test
Nicpon? Robards-Dillon strikes again. Taking care of her Babies' baby daddy...Should call her the Queen maker, made a Brain dead Lt, who dresses like a skank and now this mush. When will the sillyness end?

Nicpon is a total softball . What a joke he will be a sgt . Truly respect the rank not the man . Zero police work expierence
Congrats steinbrenner. 005 lost a great guy
Sgts job is not the worst job on this department. Does it suck sometimes? Sure. But being a PO, LT, Capt, etc sometimes sucks too. I've learned; if you treat your people with the respect and with dignity that they deserve, they will work for you. If you're fair and listen to them, they will work for you. If you back them up, they will work for you. If you stand up for them, they will work for you. There will always be DOGS. But sometimes, they will even work for you. I enjoy being a Sgt. Nothing is more rewarding than being able to take care of the working police. And I have the authority to do so. Congrats to the new sgts. And remember, take care of your people!
Congrats J. Putrow. I use to think the guy was strange until I worked with him a few times and got to know him. He's actually a smart guy, and a funny M.F'er! He'll be a good Sgt to work for.

She's lucky she wasn't fired after her timekeeping screw up at the Academy.
But that place is full of F-ups anyway!
Is Pearson full duty? You cannot be promoted unless you are a full duty officer. Now, I've seen a few 'light duty' people miraculously become full duty just before a new promotional list is posted...
Know whats fucked up.I know a P.O who .while in the Marine Corp,was in charge of fellow Marines during battle.He did 3 tours and on his 3rd tour at the age of 23 was considered the old man.But -no college.You cant take the sergeants test.Your not smart enough to be a leader of men

What really fucked up is someone being too dumb or lazy to get about 35 to 40 hours from Wright or Daley College. (you get 15 hours or so from the Academy and Military training)
I worked 3 side jobs with a family .. went to court and eventually received my Bachelors AND Masters from "Jerry" Lewis University.
It ain't rocket science or diggin' ditches for a living.

Congratulations to all. Remember all, your job now is to make it easier for those working for you to do their jobs. Watch out for them, do your best to protect them. And remember that there is a difference between a mistake of the heart and a mistake of the head.
4/09/2015 10:57:00 AM
I am sorry to tell you, but once you put on a white shirt, it is a completely different ball game. In sergeant school they teach you first and foremost, you are a supervisor. You are not a buddy or a friend. You as a supervisor have duties and responsibilities. If you don't carry out your duties and responsibilities then you will put your pay check in trouble. Sorry, I have a mortgage to pay and kids to support. I have a job to do. If you as a blue shirt want to avoid trouble, then don't get into trouble in the first place.
4/09/2015 05:41:00 PM"
I wrote the first post above. I retired a few years ago as a supervisor. I never said be a friend or buddy. But if you aren't smart enough to protect your people while doing your job and help make their job easier you don't deserve to be nor should be a supervisor.
guys guys if you have nothing nice to say shut the fuck up. Go merit !!!!' get in where you fit in. There's not one person in their right mind who if not given the chance to make a phone call to get somewhere wouldn't do it. They are having a sale at sports authority for knee pads better get a head of the game. Congrats to the new sgts and future sgts merit or not because you did what these whining bitches didn't get promoted!!!! And to all you lzy ass old timers retire you salty ass veterans. Let the real police work without you idiots living in the past and now blowing off jobs!
This is very interesting. The Detective Div. just demonstrated their no longer the cream of the crop. Patrol now rules and the Detectives culture is truly dead, RIP.
Congrats to all the new Sgt's!
I wish you the all the best of luck dealing with the whining, bitching, pissing, and moaning that you'll get on a daily basis. Whether it's from the bosses, blue shirts, or the half baked citizens, you're going to need it!

There are quite a few officers who have been shot before Del and who don't go around shoving that in everyone's face. He will be made, just wait your time like the 10 or so ahead of him that deserve it as well.

Awwwwwwww, you didn't do good so u cry like little bitty baby. When a class has merit u scream about clouted ones. No merit this class and you still bash everyone as booksmart weirdos or cheaters who had the answers. You can't possibly comprehend that people actually did better than you... After all you are supercop or were "back in the day" or took it and failed miserably. So now you pout at all the rest. Every class you will be here bashing. Your bashing changes nothing, it only means people are still gonna be made and you won't... Poor baby.

Yeah but that's the Marines. This is Chicago.
Who sent him? Who does he know? Nobody? Then it is Patrolman for life working a beat car.
I was in callback with YB. She has been light duty for most all of her police career. When the department went on that 1 year light duty BS she mysteriously went full duty that same day, now all of a sudden, the same person who could not work full duty for years for a self proclaimed irreversable back condition has not only been working full duty while she has been inside of course working here at the Academy causing chaos and dysfunction daily, but now she is fit and full duty enough to go on the street as a sergeant! The Medical Section should be looking into that. But then again, they are under Chief Williams so that will never happen. Remember, thats her boo. We all watched as he personally took her to the bathroom during the sergeants test out of a door and area for proctors only.
Congratulations to all of the sergeants. Pull up your boot straps and get ready for this summer! This summer will be the worst time of your life, but it will pay off in the end.

This isn't right to say but funny as fuck!
JA is a stroke as is TH.
JA is a pathological liar that can't differentiate between his lies and reality. Total asshat. I feel bad for anyone he supervises. I'm sure he'll rule 14 every document he ever fills out.
TH has the personality of a rock. Can't say hello in passing in the hallway. Thinks his shit doesn't stink. Walks and talks like he's gods gift to policing. Pulled a dipshit move on the streets years ago and ran to daddy to bail him out. Yeah, great way to take responsibility for your actions. He'll be the first one to jam up a good copper who makes an unfortunate mistake.
Just cuz you score high on the list doesn't mean you'll make a good sgt. Both these clowns will ruin the stripes. Mark my words.

Hopefully he will use the benefits that are afforded to him that he has earned.
Study, that's what I did. I EARNED it. I didn't sit around looking for a hand-out. I went to college after my stint in active duty. I finished up while on the job. Wife, kids, court, side jobs... the whole deal.
By the way, its CORPS, with an "S", and learn some fucking punctuation and spelling, YOU'RE making YOUR fellow Marines look bad. And Semper Fi, you rock.
I can't wait till I make Sgt so people can insult me on the blog!! Hope I'm in the next class!!

YB has the worst attitude and caused every one of the polygraphers to want to leave. She made it her business to let everyone know that the Chief of BSS was calling her phone all day long and say it out loud just so people would know who she is connected with. I bet Chief W pulls some strings so he can bring her evil and dumb back here. I still don't believe she was smart enough to score that high unless she was studying from the test and with her connection to the Chief, that is definitely a possibility. She takes the cake from dumb, dumb and dumber. Watch and see. Commanders look out. You will be getting a second watch phone call.
4/09/2015 11:07:00 PM
Is she the same ignorant lady that yelled at, she really yelled at, the Dicks class for being too loud in the hallway? They just laughed at her. (The same hallways recruits get screamed at and do push-ups in all the time, everyday)
What did she do then, she went and cried about them to the command staff.
She thought she was Ms. Boss already. God forbid anyone who has to work for this self entitled broad.
And to all you lzy ass old timers retire you salty ass veterans. Let the real police work without you idiots living in the past and now blowing off jobs!

I almost choked this was so funny. I've seen 5 year dogs blow off CSA's and take so long getting to in-progress calls that they qualify for call-back. The only good thing is there is almost no chance of them showing up on my job. DOG is a status that transcends time on this job.

I'm sure he's a smart guy, but he should've considered that he took a guy's spot. He'll never be promoted to detective because he's starting sergeant pre service. If you're in the top 30 for the sergeant's, why take the dectective spot?
When is the next sgts class I hear June or July

I know a time keeper in a detective Area and they said there are dicks making $150,000 a year. Why would you want to tajust wondering a 30-40,000 pay cut to work midnights in a district.
Because it doesn't count towards your pension. Lose a little now but you're gonna make up for it in the long run. Don't be so shortsighted. its all about the money baby!!!!
Well put Congratulations guys!
Sgt Parazanski-congrats on your promotion...your Dad was good to me years ago when going through the hiring process.
Best wishes to you both!
As a sgt. For over 17 yrs all I can say is don't get too stuck on yourself. Do ur job, help out the coppers, and be reasonable. This is just a job, if someone is doing something dangerous, tell them. If they are doing something that may get them or someone else in trouble, tell them. It's all about going home safe. Remember even a dog gets a bone. Most importantly is be fair, don't rush to judgement, get all the facts first before you go doing something you will regret or can't take back and then think about it before doing something about it. Yes you will be taken advantage of, yes you will be lied to, and yes you won't be trusted.......at first. It's up to you how your life on this job is gonna be from now on. As for me the novelty is worn off, if I can help a copper I will, I don't sweat the small stuff, I'll hold ur slip, I'll help you out. All I expect is for you to do ur job within reason, we are all over 21, and don't drink or steal on duty. And one more thing there is no such thing as consensual sex while working. Other than that have fun and stay safe.....oh and enjoy midnights on the south side .......good luck
Good to see a Schnoor name on the list. There's NEVER been a white shirt from that Family. Sgt in 020, Lt that just retired w/in past few years, and wasn't the Patriarch at least a Lt?
This mother fucking shit is all on the up & up. It's like The Sutter Family in The NHL. Oddly w/that last name theres always room in cushy Districts(don't know about The Blessed Units)enjoying a decent gig. BS(not a smart Alec attempt)in 020 was a Tact Sgt at Bel/West till he bumped bellies w/the ridiculously heavy tact Lt there plus some problems w/X/O "Iron Mike" sent BS 2 the watch. Good Dude, but I lost count on how many families on the gig automatically get promoted. We'll good luck & chalk up another for them.
To the poster asking how many took the tests; I think it was give or take 5000+ for part one 4300? For part two.
Come on people,... bosses do have questions and answers, bosses do have family, bosses do hold "study " groups., and the past does repeat itself. And no, not sour grapes , retired white shirt.
I'm sure he's a smart guy, but he should've considered that he took a guy's spot. He'll never be promoted to detective because he's starting sergeant pre service. If you're in the top 30 for the sergeant's, why take the dectective spot?
4/10/2015 04:52:00 PM
Maybe his crystal ball was malfunctioning, and he didn't know they'd be making sergeants this soon. You'd pass up a detective spot just to sit around hoping they make sergeants soon? I didn't think so.

So you want the guy to pass on Detdctivd spot he earned - in the hopes that maybe a Sgts class is starting soon ? Plus he didn't take a guys spot. It's his spot. The way things work these days - had he passed on his spot on Detectives - it could have been years until Sgts class made. He made right move. The guy next on list will just have to wait until next class until they get to his earned spot b
Congratulations J. Allen! Your one of the smartest & hardest working cops that I've had the pleasure of working with. I know that you'll soon master the art of being a Sgt, just as you've mastered everything else that you've put your mind to. I hope that you are as well regarded in your new district as you are here.
Congratulations Brian Kennedy and Jim Glenke from 022...we'll miss you on 3rd watch...JH
I can't wait for next class that has all the merit picks and what you computer warriors have to say. At the end of the day merit or not some people deserve it. The kids with the phone calls do not. Earn it!

Congrats Tony N & Julio V. Ignore the haters. Cash the check.
OT: How does PO/Nurse MM in the Medical Section get away with putting her first cousin Sgt DC from the Court Section on ambulatory status immediately as soon as DC goes on the medical? No phone call or visit required. It's a good scam because DC never has to stay home while on the medical. Chief Williams and Deputy Chief Shear are aware of this, and yet it continues.
4/09/2015 09:36:00 Pm
Sounds like a hater...what happened she didnt give u an xtra day off!!!!
What about the Sgt in 009 who got screwed out of the promotion because he was injured even though he came of the medical prematurely in order to go to the promotion class?
Apparently Don O'Neil skipped over his ranking and refuses to allow him in the class

Would you pass up a chance to be promoted if you were on limited duty? I don't know many who would. I have seen a couple of guys who were 100% legit limited go full duty to take that promotion. They are out there with their injuries still but want that promotion. Sure some are not legit. But not always how is happens.
The City has always been idiotic in promoting Detectives and then Sergeants There have always been guys who make Det, and then weeks later get promoted to Sgt. In 1996, they had about a whole bunch that fell in like that. Make Sgt first, then Detectives.... oh wait that just makes way too much sense.
LOL. Schnoor. Excellent study skills I'm sure.
Somebody needs to open an investigation regarding YB and her chief boo. She told her chief Boo she wanted the polygraph spot so he forced her on Ladner and Sprinkle. Everyone else had to go through a selection process and she did not. Then she brags that she'll be in the first class because of her boo and now she is. Didn't the Supe's driver get kicked out of the last class because the bosses tried to pull a fast one and it was discovered. Does she really get to say she didn't make it, meritoriously for the rest of her joke of a career because her boo gave her the questions to the test or is someone going to do something about this?
No merit! The ONLY good thing McCarthy's done!
