Memorial Day OT Info

This was forwarded to us:
  • ...this is how the Department will pay our members if they have a day off on the Holiday:

    1. Officer's RDO and does not work the holiday
    2. Officer is NOT RDO and is working his regular day on a holiday
    3. Officer is RDO and voluntarily agrees to work his RDO on a holiday

    In each of these situations the officers will pick up the 8.5 hours of holiday time (books only).

    For officers who are RDO on Monday but don't work that is all they will get (the automatic 8.5 hours of comp time).

    For officer's who are not RDO but are working on Monday they get the normal holiday deal (8.5 hours C/E and 4.25 hours of which they can take in pay or put on the books).

    For officers who are RDO on Monday but volunteer to work, they would get the standard 8.5 C/E (books only) and then would get 12.75 hours. They can choose comp time or pay for the 12.75 hours.
The signature line was from the FOP Financial Secretary. It seems like a legit explanation for everyone arguing in the comments a few days back.

Stay Fetal boys and girls.
If you have day off enjoy the day with family or friends.
All the money in the world will never make up for this time you lost.
Even if it rains time with my kids was well worth it.
Signed,
30 years of dedicated service to the city. And still pushing a beat car.

If you think this will help Chiraq your nuts.
What do you think will happen on the 4th of July?
Labor Day?

The news and Rham are tired of the crime here. Both are paying more attention to delays at airport screening.

Tell me I am wrong?

Hey boss I have the chance to be with my family can I work with the thugs and risk getting a CR number and being the next media sensation? Hey boss can I ruin my family life even more rather be with the "I hate police crowd" As most everyone else is enjoying a cold 1 and some BBQ time realizing how fast time goes? Remember you can always chase the almighty buck, but time with with family means everything!
day off mix it up with the "black n brown" thugs who toni quickly releases from jail!

It's a shame that so many FOP Members do not know or understand their own contract!

They do not or will not attend meetings.

Complain when they cannot run for office, because they do not attend the required number of meetings.

Always bring up the lifting of residency (that is a State Law) that would have to be undone by the State Legislature.

And greedily work every overtime assignment then complain their is not enough officers to man the posts.

We kill our own initiative and blame the FOP.

great question! We usually get paid on the 1st and 16th, except in May when we get paid on the 30th. Since the 30th falls on a holiday, we should get paid on Friday. Some banks will have it Thursday night, if you are lucky.

Hope this answered your question! have a nice day.

Not according to my timekeeper. If you are RDO and volunteer to work Memorial Day you only get what people scheduled to work that day get. Meaning 8.5 hours on books and 4.25 hours either pay or on books. My unit timekeeper says the city told them that anyone RDO who works is VOLUNTEERING and because they are not being cancelled do not get time and half. Verify with your timekeeper before changing plans with family or friends. It may only be worth 4.25 hours of pay.

Absolutely correct. You only get the "big" money if the department cancels your day off. You volunteer, and you only get what anyone else scheduled to work that day does. Think about that. This post has incorrect info. Stay home. Enjoy your time off.

It's a three step process:

1. Go back to the car to get back in range.

2. Get in the car and close the door.

3. Drive away from wherever you think the burglar may be.

That should stop the beeping and keep you safe.

Holy shit guys, this isn't rocket science. If you're RDO and you voluntarily work 8.5 hours that day, you get your normal 8.5 hours on the books per the contract and you get an additional 12.75 hours either on the books or as pay depending on what option you choose. If your idiot time keeper is telling you anything else, they are WRONG. Total of 21.25 hours for the day if you're RDO. If you're regularly scheduled to work that day, you get 8.5 on the books and 4.25 on the books or as pay depending on what you choose for a total of 12.75 hours. Okay? Is everyone clear? There's nothing to debate and nothing to argue about. This is what it is.
