I was partners with that lady for five years and she told me she knew no one and didn't have any whack. The list certainly suggests otherwise. It's the Shit that happens inside Ya really worry about and the people of the street want to kill Ya.

Still can't figure out how a exempt put in someone not in their unit.
Directors have pick too?

Someone needs to keep track of who is submitting application for merit too.

Seven murdered and fifteen wounded yesterday. And our mayor's only concern is transgendered bathrooms. Black aldermans call for changes in the police collective bargaining contract to cull " racism and violence" from CPD. Priorities I guess. Or so called leadership.

the truth be told. One exam given in just a few short hours is so important it is the only determinant to determine a promotion. The bar for first portion is so low to include everyone and the score from the multiple choice portionis not included in the overall score. With the non disclosure is subject matter experts and numerous reports of cheating by leaked testing materials, the whole promotional process is tainted. By the way, the difference in ranking by a hundred spots can be as little as correctly furnishing just one more "most correct" answer than everyone else.

Bottom line, everything you have accomplished day in and day out means nothing. Lots of boss's drivers, desk personnel and watch secretaries will now get a bump in pay without recent arrest police expected activity or even state law mandated experience as cinematic experts with body cameras. Actual application of police work means nothing, but conceptual police work conducted during a four segment is the determinaning criteria for promotions. And bragging rights!

The radio this morning just designated Wednesday as the the most deadly day so far this year with 7 dead and 15 or so wounded on the south and west sides. It's February, so what is in store for the rest of the year?

What are those Deplorables or elected officials doing? Focusing attention on transgender bathrooms, providing legal protections for those who circumvented established immigration protocols, attacking due process rights for those are stuck cleaning up the mess everyday while doing police functions in uniform and calling for greater participation of the middle class by collecting ever increasing amounts of their take home pay to fund all this hot mess.

But help is on the way. More homicide detectives will provide much needed relief to the south and west sides. Homicide death murders will most certainly addressed appropriately by those who high scorers. Recent promotees will provide real world street and cook county court experience tilting the violence equation and the scales of justice in favor of the good guys. Fresh faces, fresh talent with bold strategic innovative strategies by the newbie detectives will solve once and for all the violence conundrum. Now if we can just form a grass roots coalition between recently promoted detectives, the black robes and the states attorney's office to advocate a hate free, diverse community for all.

FOP Candidates won't mention any negioations in their vote for me letters, but I'd certainly like to hear that they won't stipulate to no more than10% Merits and by Merit I mean Duty Related Merit, NOT house bound Mon-Fri daytime paper shufflers.

With nearly 3 decades on this job I notice some serious nepotism going on. You can't hide from your own last name. But please, don't even THINK I'm going to give a fuck and follow the orders of the annointed ones.
There should be a minimum standard of having at least 50 honorable mentions and 1 department commendation in order to be promoted meritoriously. Then maybe, just maybe, there might be some respect toward the people getting promotions.

"...FOP election coming up, just remember not to vote for Dean. We got screwed on Healthcare on the last contract."

– keep in mind Insurance Companies and hospitals got screwed with obamaCare, something Rahm pushed. Healthcare has always been a no-win for Ins CO's and oB just made it worse. Besides that, Rahm decided to defer healthcare to the subsidies. FOP was never going to win the healthcare battle from the get-go...it's Rahms purse and he is not opening it up for taxpayers. It's called "share the wealth" - paying for those who don't pay anything. And don't forget since Ins Co's don't pay, Hospitals lose profits which means WE pay more and get less.
What's going to happen when obamaCare is dismantled remains a mystery, until then we have buy healthcare from a Rahm connected company.

Rahm Emanuel & the Democrats screwed us, not FOP. Although FOP got us a few nuggets but it turned out to be fools gold, Rahm laughed at how he saved $170 million screwing city retirees (thank you very much).

Coppers with 4 years and less now make up for about 20% of the department and will only continue to grow obviously. Why are there so many you ask? Hmmm...how about all the hiring freezes during the Daley administration on top of the bull shit rahm tried to pull with his "1.000 cops on the street" shenanigans. So thanks to to that...you'll now have some 3 year guy investigating your cases. Can't blame them either though. If the qualifier is 3 years and they do well on the test do you expect them to turn it down and wait for the next dicks test? It's a double edged sword created by politicians in power. I for one am not hating on these young kids getting these spots.

Wow hater. Some coppers might be 200-300 and received merit. Just because they did not make it right off the top 100-200 does not mean they are not going to be good detectives. You think all cops on this job have street smarts? I'm pretty sure a lot of top scorers do not
