And Again....
It wasn't until 1930 hours that the decision was made to cancel all days off tomorrow. Someone commented:
- The entire handling of the World Series "situation" went well beyond incompetence and awful leadership. The cancelling of RDOs for 01 Nov, and then the rescinding of the cancellation 6 hours later was inane at best. People cancelled scheduled appointments, arranged for child care that they then had to cancel, etc.. This was ignorant and insulting. the following was even worse.
Issuing an edict that cancellation of RDOs on 02 Nov was "contingent" on the outcome of game 6 is an incomplete, insidious order. It should have been clearly outlined: Cubs win, days off cancelled. Cubs lose, days off not cancelled. What were they waiting for? The score of the game? The decision obviously was already made. The decision not to inform the troops was a conscious and deliberate ass fucking. This was either special Ed saying fuck you or Rahm saying fuck you. Doesn't matter either way, they left people hanging and treated the entire department, not wearing a gold star, like pieces of shit.
That has been the attitude of all the connected since the mistake of J-Fled. The federal outsider was brought in to stave off a DOJ takeover, and it happened anyway. Anyone with any sort of extensive and institutional knowledge was driven off, demoted, or told "your services are no longer needed" for whatever reason and now the Department is reaping what has been sown for the past decade.
No one is left who remembers how to write and execute an Event Order so that there are actual preparations in place. We should clarify that as "no one downtown." There are plenty of sergeants and lieutenants who remember and could do it, but they're not clouted, so they are ignored and dead-ended.

Take time-stamped PHOTOS of all this stuff, guys. It will be needed for the class-action suit down the road. Every order, rescinded order, amended order. This is beyond incompetent.
Can't they look at the old orders or does that take too much thought???
In the real word people would be fired for this type of incompetence!
I have yet to see any water or snacks given to any coppers during the shift. Supervisors are just telling us take turns to go buy what you need. Ahhh hard to do when at Clark & Addison or around the stadium the whole time. What a shit show this whole thing is! Its like there was no preplanning on any of this, but being the department this is of fuck up move up, a lot of people are going to get promoted!!! Be safe out there everybody!
My CO made a decision yesterday...if the Cubs win Tuesday, all RDO's are cancelled. If they lose. RDO are as normal. The only thing he didn't do was cancel the 12 hour days. Easy, peasy!
An army of lambs led by a lion is to be more feared then an army of lions led by a lamb.
When you look at the crime and leadership of this city and dept think about why this dept is in disarray and city in shambles.
Outsider:
Obviously your leadership have no confidence in themselves.
So are all you ass kissers finally done with the duty and dedication bullshit you've been spewing. Calling guys who are pissed..whiners and crybabies. Just so you're aware many guys and gals with 15yrs and more are tired of the bullshit. We held the shit together for years with no hiring. I will work when called upon and stay late when needed but this is bullshit, it's not an emergency. This is baseball games not Sept 11th. Could have easily gotten volunteers on rdos or volunteers for an extended tour. Unions fought for years for an 8hr day. This is a total disregard for its employees and American labor. Now you have overtired coppers preparing for a game 7 shit show followed closely by an election shit show. FOP better find multiple grievances to file or they should all resign.
Have fun tonight. Look at the bright side, there cannot be a game Eight!
The Chiefs are happy, so screw the common Indians. It is a sad sad state of affairs, just one big cluster fuck.
This was a baseball game. A planned schedule that was put out by MLB a couple weeks ahead of time. The department scrambled with horseshit plans. Can you imagine a catastrophe?? We all knew we are doomed, but now the whole city of Chicago knows we are doomed.
VOTE Trump!
Hopefully Rahm and the Alderthieves will continue their petty games like story below, and an angry Trump will give them the FBI Bureau and US Attorney they deserve.
Drain the Swamp!
Days off going to be cancelled for the election?
Well what do you expect ., when we have two Real ASS WIPES running the show. Especially when one doesn't still know his right hand from his left
I know why we get duty availability and what it means but this "hurry up and wait", and "just standby" is wrecking my family structure. The kids have been sleeping in different family members houses all weekend. A little better forecasting by the brass for next time please
What is the FOP doing about this?
This is complete wanton disregard for your employees...... I don't know what exactly constitutes unfair labor practices but this is complete and utter bullshit.
After insisting all day that days off for the next day were not cancelled 30 minutes before 1st watch early cars start they change their minds???
Nobody can be that incompetent it simply must be intentional.
Old retired guy here, You young bucks should do what we used to do ! Now with caller I D, don't answer the call. If you are RDO 02 Nov and they call you on 01 Nov with their stressful bull shit, don't answer the phone. You were under the impression that you were not going to work your RDO. If you do work today, show up your regular time !
These brainless fuck' are going to put you guys in ICU if you let them. Stress kills and the job without their shit is stress filled anyway.
I was a heavy hitter and had a blast on the street, I see you young copper' today and you are walking dead with conditions you have to work under. My prayers are always with all you street dogs who cannot catch a break from the jag off' running the dept and city hall.
FOP !! all their e mails show college' that you can attend and they can get a kick back from. Worse FOP staff ever now. They fucked us Medicare retired guys allowing the city to fuck us. Dean will be gone in a year or so and living the good life in his beach front home in California. Start a movement and get rid of FOP and go with the teamsters. They are totally legit now and know how to play hard ball with city. The FOP, if you let them will get 2 percent raise over 4 years and your will be paying for health insurance big time. Us guys on Medicare are paying 11 K a year thanks to FOP doing shit for us.
And rdos not cancelled for game 7 but were cancelled for traveling days. Brilliant
There are plenty of sergeants and lieutenants who remember and could do it, but they're not clouted, so they are ignored and dead-ended.
Did someone call my name? Yours truly, one of the ignored and dead-ended lieutenants
How about a post for those who weren't informed the RDO cancellation for Tuesday was rescinded? Its a huge issue, ask MLAS.
And the beat goes on, leadership in CPD is just a bunch of self serving assholes with no idea how to run the department. Maybe they can resurrect Townsend the man knew how to detail PO for specials events more than we can say for the present first deputy, I think he is still trying to find his way to work.
What's that old saying? Never ascribe to malice that which is adequately explained by incompetence.
Less of a fuck you and way more of a fuck up...
Welcome to the toilet.
Again, Emanuel doesn't think you deserve a pension or health insurance.
He also wants to jail you to appease the "community".
Garbage in, garbage out.
You get what you pay for fucker.
Have fun splainin' to you play revruns the 800 dead muthafuckas that you gonna have on 01 January.
💩
Incompetence on full display.
God bless our Iowa Brothers
This department is a joke !! I've been in Bulls, Sox and the Blackhawks....never so confusing or fucked up as this! A call at 2130 to say I have to be at work at 5 ???? Who's running this show ?? This is what you get when you over promote incompetent people.....a cluster fuck ! It wasn't this fucked up for all the other championships......why is it fucked up now ?????????? Nothing like fucking with peoples personal lives...appointments, kids, wife, babysitters, etc etc etc....
Why not just cancel the rdo's at the earliest time...then, if we come in and you don't need us, give us three hrs o.t. and send us home, or keep us the whole day to "fight crime", at least we can plan our lives.
This job sucks nowadays........these poor kids coming on now....this place is a joke.
Ed Johnson is a joke....along with the rest of the "leaders" in this department.....fuck this place.
They were too busy creating the Cubs ribbon they are going to give us!
When is the media or FOP going to ask why this is so screwed up?
Is there an unknown threat out there? And rank and file not notified.
Why were days off canceled on travel day for Cubs?
Then why we're no Days off canceled for final game until they made it
to game 7?
Get ready for working long day on Election day.
soon we will be doing water enforcement
paying more to park or buy within city
so this is my,
last election day
last vote
last city sticker
last city water bill
last property tax bill
After 30 yrs I am done paying

Why do you need water and snacks to be given to you? What kind of entitled bullshit is this? You knew the hours you were working and you knew where you were working. What kept you from bringing your own snacks and water? How hard is it to find a place with snacks and water around Clark and Addison? Are you fucking serious? Supervisors told you to take turns buying what you need. What's wrong with that? Do you want daddy to go buy your snack packs for you? Should your supervisor feed you and put your water in a sippy cup for you? You were standing around "controlling" a completely non-hostile crowd, with plenty of time and access to get whatever food and water you needed. How do the whiny bitches like you survive at all? This department is an epic shitshow run by incompetent fucktards, but it's not their responsibility to feed and water the troops. You're presumably an adult. Start acting like one. I pray you never have to deal with an extended tour during a riot, with bad weather, in the ghetto, with a hostile crowd and actual danger. You wouldn't last an hour before collapsing into the fetal position, sucking your thumb, and whining for mommy. Pathetic.
Awful
What about the people who worked VRI Tuesday nite and had to double back this morning after having only 3 hours of sleep?
They couldn't cancel VRI OR THEY WERE DOOMED for the following month but instead they got a call to report this morning for a 12 hour shift and no one cares that the officers had no sleep.
This is sad
OT -What about those two PPO's that were literally shoveling shit outside Wrigley Field the other night? What "boss" gave that order?
Can't imagine the cops in Chicago doing this
New Video Shows Fierce Gun Battle as Oklahoma Troopers Chase, Kill Murder Suspect Michael Vance
http://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/new-video-shows-fierce-gunbattle-oklahoma-troopers-chase-kill-murder-n676481
I cannot imagine what it would like if a real serious situation developed, like a terrorist attack. The city is so ill prepared. Hopefully some non-clouted sergeants and lieutenants would step up. This has been coming for a long time- ever since those first merit promotions back in 1988.
stay focus and stay fetal my friends, never forget that this department is screwed, just look at Fat Eddy and friends!
That has been the attitude of all the connected since the mistake of J-Fled. The federal outsider was brought in to stave off a DOJ takeover, and it happened anyway.
J-Fled was brought into the loop as a handler for Shortshanks, the head of Mayor Daley's crime family, and keep him well informed regarding FBI investigations. J-Fled was paid very well to remain silent or end up like others who committed "suicide". Yet more deaths covered up by the delicate minds involved in the Koschman murder investigation...ssshh
This is funny as hell. All the cheating fuckups get promoted and the first event that comes up that needs a little planning, that any sergeant or lieutenant could do, and it's a major clusterfuck!
Like the old timer said, with caller I.D., you should know by now, a call from the upper echelons can only be bad news. They'll not call you to tell you you're getting a promotion or a raise in pay.
Stay safe Officers.

Actually, the opposite is true. They have been elevated to this position because of their friendship with someone, the color of their skin or their allegiance to a key voting block (their sexual orientation). They believe high in themselves way too much.
Most of the upper echelon of the Department, despite all evidence to the contrary, believe they DESERVE this rank because of prior prejudices and they are the best. They believe this even thought they never themselves experienced these prejudices. In fact, they have been rocketed to the top because they are members of those protected voting blocks.
This is the biggest problem on the Department. The unqualified are running things. The qualified are taking a back seat or retired. The Mayor is responsible. Rahm continues to fiddle while Rome burns. Why haven't you, the voter, gotten rid of these clowns?

What do you think?
It's not a Cubs game so the answer is no
When I got on the job in 1971, the FOP was a club for bosses, could not believe
they won under Jayne Burn and the count of the vote, it was fixed back then, and
hasn't changed, still sleeping with the enemy, pension board also.
Did they just cancel the cancellation of the original cancelled days off?
AMEN
The sergeant of a team should make sure his guys are taken care of. A cooler with water, gatorade, oranges, etc, should always be there. A bag full of energy bars and the like should be next to it.
It's been said for years, jfed started the downfall by dumping the knowledgable bosses. And now we are left with incompetent bosses promoted well above their talent level only based on who they are connected too. The merit promotions have always been a joke and is blatant cronyism. DOJ wants to clean up the department start here.
Every order that comes out gets rescinded. We can't get one notice that has not been followed by a correction. Even the promotion listed are changed. And the brain trusts at 35th were originally going to gig people for missing VRI until someone figured out what was going on. It's just sheer stupidity.
And as far as days off cancelled some of us are going on 10 days working. Idiots!
What? Who says this job has to supply water and snacks, you are not playing sports, bring your own. You have pockets in those police pants. Stop the baby crap winning and go orepared. What I'm about to write you won't like but back in the day, we never even got a lunch break while on a detsil, somebody made 1 food run , and I spent almost 40 years out there, I'm 66 now and could come back and do the job. You crybaby especially are getting paid big money for these details.DO IT AND SHUT UP.
So, what did you THINK was going to happen? You couldn't predict this?! Sometimes you have to think ahead of those that are supposedly doing the thinking for you!
Barnum & Bailey have nothing on the clowns running this shit show.
After this weekend, do we really have police officers that cannot reason for themselves? If the cubs lost on tuesday no rdos cancelled, if they win, what did you think they were going to do? Some times we have to think for ourselves and anticipate.
The best is the guy making all this overtime complaining how's he's not at his 20 dollar an hour side job at walmart.
I wouldn't even let the upper echelon of this department handle my kids party at a Chuck E. Chesse! Lol! (Sarcasm)
Who is the goof that let Henny Penny get involved in this fiasco, please publish his name!
Was on the job for the Bulls championships 4,5 and 6. The department was fully staffed at 13500 then and we had all days off cancelled and 12 hour shifts for 1st and 2nd watch. 3rd watch personal and all teams were put on foot posts throughout the city. We also had units like SOS running around as gas teams (ah, that was fun). This happened every potential clinch game all 3 years. The city was expected to erupt especially on the south and west sides probably similar to what may happen tonight with a cubs win. Yes, since then we had the Sox win it but compare the fanbase. We also had the Blackhawks win 3 but again look at the fan base.
With the weather being in the 70s the south and west sides will already be jumping, given a reason to "celebrate" it could be intense! Wrigleyville will make the pride parade look tame and the entertainment district of 018 will be worse than when the Hawks won each year. Bottom line is I would rather have everyone available on tonight for the safety of myself and my partners and I hope this is something we can all agree on. Maybe the Indians win and this is a moot point but if not let's focus on getting thru tonight safely instead of being bitter about our incompetent "leadership".
Anyone know if that goof Sgt in IAD who took over time money and rail roaded other cops retired,?
tonight will be easy....the main event will be on nov 8th.

Howe many now will volunteer for O/T, next time Special Ed asks ???? LOL Democrats just screw over Police .....Wake Up!!!!!!!!!!!
Now what is going to happen if the Cubs win? are they cancelling RDO's for the parade?
What would Johnny Paycheck say about this shit?
Two Police Officers killed in Des Moines last night. Offenders in Custody, preliminary reports indicate white nationalists.
Have fun with all of this hot garbage!!! Been on furlough during all of this mess Thank God
That's what happens when you put people who never have or couldn't do your job in charge.
Exhausted??? Stressed??? Physically weak??? Cramps in legs and feet??? Vision slightly impaired??? Dizziness??? Not eating properly??? Dehydrated???
Right there in the contract--MEDICAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Downtown still can’t get it right. So many are merit and then anointed to command positions. Couldn’t pass the second part of the exam after getting coached a getting a sneak peek at the 2nd part of the written exam which determines ranking scoring order. Then you scratch your head and ask just how difficult is it to surround your command with some intelligent talent to get it right. Then take gold star credit self- promoting accolades for the successes.
On a national level, the democrat candidate for president got coached and was forwarded debate questions allowing her to crush Bernie Sanders and then use poll tested responses against Donald Trump. The democrat candidate gets the heads up on the debate questions just like certain lieutenant candidates received privileged courtesies to questions and appropriate answers prior to the actual test. Must be part of the democrat playbook of dirty tricks.
All the leadership in this department are afraid of making a common sense decision, they are afraid of there own shadow. The higher you get up in this department the more you forget what it is like to be a PO. Most of the leadership in this department needs in service training on leadership 101, but knowing how bad this departments in service training is it won't help. Canceling RDo's last minute is not good for your PO's morale. More then half the PO's have already stop doing proactive policing. You keep messing with the PO's changing start times, canceling RDo's and denying time off, your going to lose the rest of the PO's. Remember leadership you need us more than we need you. You need our activity to make you look good! We take care of those who take care of us! I have some glimmer of hope that the leadership will get there heads out of there asses, by seeing some recent people who have been promoted. And I repeat SOME promoted, some will still be same old useless leadership.
Just wait and see if the Cubs win tonight. All the head scratching @ 35th regarding a victory parade downtown. Maybe 1-2 million fans show up. The city will have someone there with a counter. If the crowd succeeds 100,000 they will cancel RDO's that morning.
"There are plenty of sergeants and lieutenants who remember and could do it, but they're not clouted, so they are ignored and dead-ended."
— This is absolutely correct.
The Command Staff is loaded with tools that have been triple + promoted and never spent any quality time in a District, even as a patrolman.
Seems a lot of them are easily molded into spineless weasels, which probably is a prerequisite. Because you worked on so-and-so's Team, or went thru the Acad with, or had a great idea to screw over your peers does not make you a leader. These tools have spent way too much time in Units and out of touch with practicality.
I wouldn't blame anyone to armchair quarterback when you see a dysfunction Command structure...because you're on the streets everyday and not in a cubicle.
Shut down the Merit Hack Movement - Stay Fetal.
Because of their incompetence my kids are gonna have a the hap, hap, happiest Xmas since Bing Crosby tap danced with Danny Fuckin Kaye!!!
The whole days off being cancelled then not being cancelled has been interesting but the CPD patrolmen have been outstanding. It's also nice to see people appropriating the police. Let's all have a safe Wednesday.
Dump all brass, pull bosses from working districts with 15 plus years. Problem solved. Merit hacks have no clue and this is the proof.
This is a city run by idiots that feel removing a street sign is paramount. We should expect nothing less than this sideshow ran by ass clowns.
The merit ship rears it's ugly head
How about the hidden positions that are getting cut lose early while the rest of us are getting killed on the beat cars? Or the "special people" allowed to go to family events while on the clock? I have not seen my family in over a week...screw this city. The bosses in 025 are complete assholes...
don't worry be happy Anthony weiner will be the new street deputy in charge of the cubs detail
Not a cop: But it's readily apparent to this civilian that the leaders of the City and Police dept can't find their asses with a bright light, outside, in the middle of a sunny summer day...
However, that's par for the course with many organizations, including Corporate America. So do what we do in Corporate:
1) Realize that your bosses are morons... and so on up the chain...
2) Try not to schedule anything when you have an inkling that the Shit might hit the fan... The usual crazy holidays, playoff games if we win it...
Yes, I realize this is difficult to do - but if you can avoid it, it's worth it not to deal with the trauma and stress created by last minute schedule changes/unchanges...
3) If you're scheduled off - don't answer the phone. Keep that GPS location crap off at all times on your phone so no one can figure out where you were after-the-face (sans search warrant, of course).
Don't answer the emails.
When you come in for your next shift - if it comes up, say "Sorry, I was scheduled to be off way back in >date<, and I took off right after my end of shift. Never got any calls or emails... Just got back. What happened?"
4) If your company still has one of those 2-way pagers (that kicks back a ping when the message is received) - put it in the freezer when you're off-shift... Messages won't make it back out of the enclosed freezer because of a weak signal strength... So yeah, they sent the message, you never got it (until you took the thing out of the freezer)...
5) Get an el-cheapo pay as you go phone and give that # to work. Carry it at work. Have a personal phone for when you're not at work. Don't bring the personal phone to work (so there's no electronic traces of it being around the station). When you have days off - shut off the work phone, use the personal one...
Yeah, big PITA to be certain, but if it helps keep you destressed and sane in the face of moronic bosses - it's what ya gotta do!
Cancel rdo's and 12hr shifts on non-clinch games... that's genius.
What's that old saying? Never ascribe to malice that which is adequately explained by incompetence.

It's Hanlon's Razor. And truer words were never spoken

Watch you 6 all that matters is blue lives back each other up!!
Vote Trump for us and the future of America!!
The entire department flipped upside down and every police resource is tapped out and taxed, for what? A catastrophe, a natural disaster, a huge immediate threat? Nope….. All for a stupid couple game of baseball! Welcome to BIZARRO LAND. Murders, shootings, and robberies everywhere in city, but we are pathetic puppets for the Ricketts's family for a week. Could you imagine if a real incident requiring policing was actually necessary? The department administration is like the boy who cried wolf.
Clusterfuck? No leadership plan? No concise work plan or shift plan to accommodate lunch-breaks or just breaks?
The BIG question - as usual is - WHERE IS THE FOP???
What do you pay Union Dues for? This is pretty cut-and-dried. HEY- we have a contract!! Adhere to the Contract!!
OOPs - sorry, I forgot. This is a Cloutocracy. FOP leadership is just waiting for their "promised" merit promotion for just standing there and keeping their mouths shut.
Carry on, minions! You are viewed as nothing. You are well below the, "I gots mine!" crowd.
Gee if you gave me three guesses to figure out who doesn't like the temporary schedule....hmmmmm move on please.

Thank you Master of Misinformation. You are the reason everyone thinks things are so messed up. Read AMFN 227004
When you appoint positions based on race, nepotism, cronyism, paying for the position, or supplying the answers to promotional test to a chosen few, what the fuck did you expect to happen? As my uncle once said to a deputy promoted well beyond his skill set, "If is wasn't for this job you'd be pushing a broom somewhere and probably struggling with that menial task. In the past when this practice wasn't so prevalent there were still knowledgeable supervisors that the over promoted brain dead could learn from. Now all that is left is a bunch of political hacks with online degrees, who together could not execute a 1 car funeral. Since when is going backwards progress. Since when is more violent crime progress? Since the democrat/communist/leftist/Marxist have been in power. So much for Hope and Change. The slogan should have read No Hope and Change for the Worse. You have to hand it to the democrats though, they along with the media have perfected the art of brainwashing to a whole new level.
Golly, not that long ago I read -right here- how Ed was the real deal. I could hear the slobbering all over his boots. Guess it didn't work out that way.

Can someone help me out? Keep lowering the standards. This department continues to swirl around the toilet and will soon be flushed down the drain.
u work !your city needs u! NO HEALTHCARE FOR U IN RETIREMENT! thank u, for your service!
The department will NEVER get rid of MERIT PROMOTIONS and MANAGEMENT ass kissers. These fuckers have NO SHAME. The department will NEVER change. It is so corrupt its fucked up.
The mother fuckers still dont have the 2nd watch schedules out. Are we doing 12 hours November 3 ? Are RDO's gonna be canceled? This department is a joke. Stay safe and protect each other.

Iglinski was the only person running it all and they NEVER promoted him, so he left.He was the guy running it from behind the scenes. And no,this isn't Frank, but a huge fan of his. I hope he enjoys his time away from the job now. I saw the writing on the wall myself, and left as well. I will always hold Chicago in my heart, but what has happened to the department has broken my heart.
What about when and if there is a parade? No one will be getting a day off

I have yet to see any water or snacks given to any coppers during the shift. Supervisors are just telling us take turns to go buy what you need. Ahhh hard to do when at Clark & Addison or around the stadium the whole time. What a shit show this whole thing is! Its like there was no preplanning on any of this, but being the department this is of fuck up move up, a lot of people are going to get promoted!!! Be safe out there everybody!

Snacks and water?!? What is a this...day camp? Ask your mommy when she's changing your diaper if she can pack some snacks for you. Big baby

SO easy to say from your retirement perch.
Try going without water for twelve hours, or a little something to eat.
And no, I'm no hairgel, so don't even go there.
I'm a retired sergeant and I always had a case of water in the trunk, some power bars and a couple of extra flashlights when my people had a detail. You take care of the people who take care of you and you don't leave them hanging without food, water and a break every once in a while.
One of the special teams leaves early everyday in 025...1 arrest or jump on paper and sneak out the door..
Old retired guy here, You young bucks should do what we used to do ! Now with caller I D, don't answer the call. If you are RDO 02 Nov and they call you on 01 Nov with their stressful bull shit, don't answer the phone. You were under the impression that you were not going to work your RDO. If you do work today, show up your regular time !
When I'm old and retired like this gentleman I will not be commenting on the blog and getting all fired up about stuff that's in the long run does not matter. Your retired go enjoy yourself.
*********
You won't be commenting?
What do you call what you just posted and why rip on another retired guy?
Another good line car 41 "blah, blah, blah" speaking on the radio. Someone chimes in "political hack" thank you whoever came on over the air and spoke the truth. You sir made my weekend.

Have you ever heard of bringing your own food?
This shit has been going on for a week, if you're still without water and "snacks" you have no one to blame but yourself.
The only people who eat Powerbars are fat asses who wear Fit-Bits to count the steps they take to McDonald's.
Make yourself some food, it's cheaper and healthier.

FOP !! all their e mails show college' that you can attend and they can get a kick back from. Worse FOP staff ever now. They fucked us Medicare retired guys allowing the city to fuck us. Dean will be gone in a year or so and living the good life in his beach front home in California. Start a movement and get rid of FOP and go with the teamsters. They are totally legit now and know how to play hard ball with city. The FOP, if you let them will get 2 percent raise over 4 years and your will be paying for health insurance big time. Us guys on Medicare are paying 11 K a year thanks to FOP doing shit for us.

I call BULLSHIT on your post.
The Aenta insurance is $292 a month or $3504 for the year. If you have it taken out of your pension check you get a $3000 HELPS Federal Income Tax Credit when you do your Federal Income taxes next year.
Are you a teamster?
Are you a CPS graduate?
Are you a member o the City-Wide team?
Or are you a goof running for office?

Not really ! If you take what two people on medicare pay ( based on last tax returns) then add two people on the supplements it could easily be 11 grand.

I have to disagree with you. The city should have arranged to , at the least, have water brought into the officers on the line. The days are long and people need hydration. I am sure the brass of the department had plenty.It is the way a leader takes care of his troops.
