Time Due Restrictions

29 June thru 09 July inclusive.

Don't expect to get time off unless you have quite a bit of seniority.

It's almost like the entire Department is shorthanded or something.

When do they start cancelling days off, due to this Unforseen Emergency (that we have every year)?

I thought Rahm has hired more officers. CPD is a joke. Crime will undoubtedly be going, most seems to be unreported, and policy will destroy CPD and the city.

Well, seeing as how whole areas can be No Go, who cares who wants what days off.

If guys and gals have time, so be it. If they want time off, take it!

No worries, rahm with a little help from his more successful sibling, has ordered an additional "one thousand officers" from the Disney studios prop department, all uniformed mannequins and cardboard cutouts of Police will be arriving shortly and strategically place around the city...

So now we have to use all time off before March each year. Plan accordingly. Plan your wedding and divorce’s during this time. Buy shirts with your name on them so your family will remember who you are in passing at home. Look forward to retirement. At least you’ll be alive a couple months to reconnect. Expect an obituary which will read like that one from those abandoned kids going around on-the internet.

Hey Kevin G,

How about doing something about this shit. Enough with Prieb’s blog nonsense. Start doing some real efforts to get our rights back in order. 10 day time restriction for a holiday is fucking nutty.

ANYbody know how many days a year we are "limited" to take time off on?

Holiday weekend seem now to be a week long.

It seems the city is using the police department as cheap security for all those festivals that raise revenue.

BRING BACK DOUBLE TIME! for canceled days.

Get rid of changing days off by force for all units.

Speaking of restrictions,

Rumors have been heard that Chief of Detectives Staples has plans to change the Schedule at Area South, after letting the new class of Detectives know not to bid to Area south for the Schedule.

If she thinks the clearance rate is low now, go ahead and change it and see how low that brings down morale. If Chief Staples would take a look at how many Detectives are assigned to each ares , she will notice that Area South has 100 less than Area North, and 140 less than the Area Central.

And we know about your 2 snitches (9171 and 9175).

OT but interesting. So much for all the projections about weather, amount of police on the street and more advanced medical care saving victims determining the amount of people shot and killed. Was cold and raining all weekend and the doctors must have been off
Nothing including the number of police on the street stops these idiots from killing. Has been proven time and time again

As usual the lowly grunts in Patrol are most effected. The house mice at HQ and the units ususlly don’t ever have a problem getting time off.
As an added bonus they frequently don’t even need to burn a slip to do so.
Keep up the good work Patrol!

The 16th Distrct which is 36 square miles has the least assigned Sergeants citywide. Furthermore it has the lowest or second to lowest officers assigned citywide. The service in 16 is severely diminished due to this severe manpower shortage.

Since these days are sooooo important that we cannot use our time due benefit they these should be time and a half days. What say you FOP? How about proposing any days off cancelled because of a Holiday, like a weekend, are time and a half all days. Not just the holiday.

And please dont give me that crap about being the Police and knowing that we work holidays, weekends, nights, blah blah. Our comp time is a earned benefit and we should be able to use it when we want with reasonable restrictions. Not because the City cant or wont let us control the "citizens" and the courts keep letting them free to prey upon the good people.

Hey hot shot. Any days off cancelled are time and one half. Maybe you should learn how to properly express yourself when writing. And yes, you are the POLICE and you need to work holidays, weekends etc. You know that from day one. QUIT and get another job if it is too much for you.

First of all I corrected myself later and said I meant double time and a half. Second of all I understand we have to work Holidays. Now, on to the good part. We do get days off and sometimes they fall on a holiday or around it. Just because the Dept cant handle the manpower needs doesn't mean we get to be screwed over. I've been handling it for over 28 years. This never used to happen years ago. We would suck it up and work 99 and handle all of our jobs so others could have off. Maybe that is too much for you. Now a days it seems like you need 10 tact guys to lock up one kid. We are not short of bodies, we are short of people who are the Police.

Not sure where you are getting this. NWSCPC hasn't released their long range weather prediction for July yet. At that, they predicted June to be above normal, and it has. July will probably follow suit.

Just think about this: If you had planned any outing or getaway around your two RDO's, pending they are not cancelled, you cannot extend your trip for even one day during this time period! Most of us remain in the same DOG all year. How can you ever plan anything months in advance when you receive these restrictions weeks in advance? This department needs a douching followed by an enema as well as the whole damned city and county.

I'll assume that was meant for me. I wasn't saying the city or department was right. I was simply giving a very obvious and simple solution to the problem presented. It wasn't like this when you signed up, but it's been like this for years. Pay attention and adjust your vacations accordingly. Whining on the internet never got me a day off, but maybe you'll have better luck. Maybe you could send your family on vacation without you. You seem to have anger issues. They could probably use a getaway.

I'll be working those dates, most likely with a bunch of down cars and only one or two supervisors on the street. I didn't intend to take any trips during those dates. If I did, I would've ensured that I had those days off by using my personal days, exactly as I advised you. If you didn't see this coming, anger isn't your only issue. I'll help you out for next year. If you plan on taking a vacation in the summer, particularly during the Taste of Chicago, or any holiday weekend, such as July 4, plan your furlough, baby furlough, or personal days around that vacation. They'll be canceling days off and limiting elective time again, just like they've been doing for years. I fully expect to see you whining about this again next year though. Another tip for you: whining won't change it next year either.
