All Hands on Deck! (UPDATE!)
Once again, someone downtown found an idea to be recycled:
- Full duty personnel from HQ will be deployed to Districts (006,011,015 & 007 we assume) for 2nd Watch.
This will be every Friday (starting 15 Nov) going forward IN AN ATTEMPT TO KEEP THE MURDERS UNDER 500 FOR THE YEAR! Not one original crime fighting idea in the supposed brain trust at HQ. What’s even more amusing (than watching HQ people squirm) is the order was sent out at 1430hrs with no details or assignments information. As of this email (1550hrs) NO ONE KNOWS JACK SHIT about where to assign [personnel] from HQ
We don't know what is going to be more shocking to the house mice:
- the "community;"
- the end of "casual Friday" at HQ;
- or the swipe-in, swipe-out full tour on a Friday
Are they going to handle paper jobs or just sit on hot spots?
By the way - the HeyJackass.com count (which is the ONLY number that's even close to being based in reality) stands at 456.
UPDATE: Are all these HQ people being issued a camera? Because god forbid they get into something hairy and suddenly, there isn't any footage to help explain what happened. After the new year, they'll all be back in their spots and Patrol will be bearing the brunt of any protests that might occur because everything is "a cover-up" when video doesn't exist.
And even when it does, actually.

Fucking meaningless numbers. Like the DOW, it's just
psychological. Look at the fucking 499 that came before it.
That's the problem.
Are they going to handle paper jobs or just sit on hot spots?
My thoughts exactly. I can sit my ass in a beat car and youtube for 8.5 hours, one day out of the week, not responding to jobs, no problem.
They dusted off Cline's playbook for Operation Closed Market. Will everyone at HQ have to go out? What about the compstat people, policy writers, R & D? Trevino-Duffy? Assorted clout pretenders?
So the brain trust has figured out that more ppl are shot and killed during the 2/W.
Do the Nit Wits that run this Department really think they are fooling anybody with this transparent fake deployment of Officers that have not worked the street in who knows how long?Everything that comes out of 35th St as far as orders is so out of touch it is actually comical.
Second watch...waste of time..try afternoons
I don’t know where some of this info comes from but it’s amazing how day in and day out all everyone talks about is being fetal and not doing jack shit but then bash everyone at HQ. Why in the flying fuck would I ever wanna go work anywhere anymore. You’re right. I’m a house mouse. About 6 months now and the smartest thing I ever did after spending 15 years in the ghetto. I’m over it. I’m done. Ain’t going back. So go ahead and keep talking about it. Not all units at HQ do casual Friday’s. We sure as hell swipe in and out everyday as it gets checked daily. I don’t leave early and I work throughout the day. By no means am i killing myself like i was in a district but i put in my time. How about having some decency and not constantly bashing everyone in the building cause there’s plenty of people here that put in their time and just had enough of the bullshit. And there’s plenty of do nothings, clouted babies up here as well. But do me a favor and don’t clump us all in that group. I was smart enough to get out and i don’t regret it. I recommend you do the same. Good luck.
Wow, the HQ officers come up a lot here. Yet no one mentions that there are 300 officers assigned to the Academy. That’s a whole district.
500 or 475. Who cares. This city is one big pile of shit
>Snicker!<
With the current "Permission Slip Criminality"
and the the de facto civic and criminal immunity/impunity
along with the political, social and cultural weaponization
of THE hyper-violent, society hating/death loving BEE-AY-DEE
muthafuckahs known as Dude Inc. - do these rattle-mind,
star-gazing/wishfully thinking/voodoo kitchen conjuring,
desperate-as-fuck morons at HQ/City Hall honestly think
that this umpteenth iteration of scare-crow Policing
is actually going to STOP these m/fers from engaging
in the usual urban death cult ritual of lighting
each other on fire?
Sheee-yaaaht...
Sell that feverish shit somewhere else.
Leave the "communerty" alone to settle their
affairs and work out their angst amongst each
other without Police interference.
"Make da Poleece stop botherin', harrassin',
stoppin' an' arrestin' US or else we gonna
be mad an' sue y'all ass for bein' RACIST!"
Leave them alone like they've been very nicely asking
and things will resolve themselves.
Run code 81 for the city to see the surge since they aren't mandated by 15%.
They should do paper jobs and walk the beat!!!!!!!!’
Good, now dust off those rusty handcuffs and handle some domestics incidents. If nothing else, assign them to the fixed posts or shooting crime scenes,
Oh my God is this department incompetent and embarrassing. Can’t they ever plan something out properly??? Ever??? All their ideas are rescinded, redrawn or just screwed up. Planning usually increases the chance for success. What leadership we have. Nice job Beck. What’s next??? More exempts made?
2019 MURDERS BY CPD DISTRICTS (through Sunday, November 10th)
Each "x" equals one Murder.
NOTE: The 11th District also leads the City in Total Part I Violent Crimes Index (Murder, Criminal Sexual Assault, Robbery and Aggravated Battery), "Shooting Incidents" and Motor Vehicle Theft. 011 is the only district in which Part I Violent Crimes surpass Part I Property Crimes.

Make sure to take your camera! Wait, are house meeeeses assigned BWC's?
Forget the fight for 15, the fight for 500 is ON!
Send more Police to these districts on 2nd watch? I think it would be best served on 3rd watch to help out. what the hell do I know , I’m just a blue shirt that works (fetal) the street. Last time we checked, HQ personel were at 4% compliant rate for swiping. How are the dollies going to handle this abrupt schedule change ?
The problem with heyjackass numbers are they count all homicides which include justifiable homicides. Homicide means death caused by another person for any trolls out there. The city says homicides but in reality they mean murders. Probably because it sounds a bit better then Murder
Not saying they don't hide some numbers but heyjackass counts homicides including police shootings and ccl shootings that caused a death. The numbers will never match. Same thing with the M.E. numbers at the end of the year they give out all homicides. I will take a guess and say Chicago Murders will hit 500 by the end of the year. And putting HQ people on the street won't change a thing.
Thursday flashback (Rumor)
Rumor has it that a highly functioning autistic young man was
discouraged from applying to CPD for a career. Despite being
sought after by tech giants like Microsoft, this man with mild
autism was directed away on the basis that he had trouble
making friends. "But isn't job performance the key to
advancement?" Not in CPD, young man. You're better off
at an investment firm, bank, or in the technology sector,
someplace where they value RESULTS.
I get my news on my phone, man. They told me at
the store that the new Motorola Razr at $1500 was
a bargain because I wouldn't have to buy newspapers
anymore. And instant weather and sports, man.
I could also get the HeyJackass murder reports too.
What a bargain!
Man I wish I had go do my "RANDOM " pee test and blow test at headquaters today. I would love to see the faces of the select few that have to go to ghetto districts on their Friday 😥...........🐀........🚓
No Zooop For You!
That will last as long as the media is there. Then tactical team from “quiet “ districts will be assigned.
Great more house mouses on the radio calling for the police. That's all they do, they certainly aren't going to get out of their cars and do police work. When they run into something they get scared and start yelling for help, then everyone has to come handle their work. Actually creates more work for everyone else.
The ones in 011 looked scared straight except for the girl and guy that used to be in 011 before. That some shit to pull on us on our Friday. Who do they think they are these white shirts at HQ. Come on I had my UGGs ready for Friday.
They are getting them ready for when they get sent back to the districts
44 until 500; that’s a hard number to hit. What’s the weather supposed to be like this weekend. Let’s go Chicago.
You should have heard them when they were being notified. "Why me?" "This is bullshit" and of course "I have more time on"
All the above coming from those with less than 10 years on. Most with only 5 or 6. Keep them out there for good!
You should have 20+ years to be eligible for any inside position.
JHC..this was tried before.Just showing BIG numbers of Officers on the street for the public to think they are safer. ALL BS!
There's just a wonderful, wonderful caricature of
Slumpin' Ed Hennessey over at HeyJackass. He's pictured
as a wonderful yellow Homer Simpson persona with a spilled
carton of cream on his desk. It really brightened my day.
The yellow and blue contrast is eye popping. Good job guys!
Why the 2nd watch? Is that when most of the shootings occur?
Thank god I retire in aug. moving to Arizona
Says much about a “community” that they have to be babysat like children with cops stationed on every corner?
Where are the poverty pimps like Jackson, Phaker and the rev’run with the really pimply suits.
The house mice aren’t really going out to districts on Fridays. The brain trusts just put that notice out there to shut up Lightloafers and get her off the backs of the CPD brass. Obviously they never intended the house mouse to go to a district, because no one was assigned anywhere. Hahahaha
So can we have a compstat for the compstat second guessers? It would only be fair.
Wake the fuck up.
If you have any length of time to go on this job, you should be trying to find a way off of the fucking street, not bashing others.
This is just a fucking job.
A job with great benefits, but really high multi-dimensional risks.
You need to start thinking in terms of personal risk management.
They should do the same with all the house mouses at ohare as well !
Officer Cold will do more to keep the murder rate down than anyone from HQ.
Now, kees me you fool!!!!
Think you got problems? A first in the NFL thug scene,
rip off the QB helmet, use it as a weapon, assault him
in the head with it, you know the guy who just came
back from a concussion and it's public knowledge?
Never mind you're winning and the game is on ice.
Sportsmanship? What's that?
Kaepernick workout being viewed by ALL NFL teams.
Think the League knows something we don't?
Because ratings are down you mix hockey with football
and see what happens. No arrests so far.

Oh boy lets get out the HQ RANGERS shirt now. Gtfo.
Hq is nothing more than high school with petty drama,everyone banging everyone else, and a bunch of do nothings that exile the building at 1530 sharp daily. Dont forget the constant smoke breaks.
Dont pull out your 15 year nonsense. The problem with HQ is that its clout to get in and falling out of clout when not if you get booted out.Save us your nonsense and get back to your cubicle.

Yep. They put them on fixed posts. They're probably going to have an easier day here in 011 than all the BS at hq. Should've put them on beat cars answering jobs, give the regular officers a little break from answering non-stop calls all day. At least some of the ones who landed in 011 CAME from 011, so not much of a shock to them.
99 on days? Give me a break. No house mouse will work alone.
sworn full duty officers should be detailed to 6,7,8,11,15,16,22 for 90 days in a DOG on 3rd watch , hire civilians for headquarters , city hall and homan square
The former GF/DRIVER/NURSE (CD) of the superintendent got a "heads up"on this from him and was transfered to EARP'S, when she read the email and sat back down thats when the chair slipped away causing her to hit the medical until the first of the year....UNREAL
KMA all day!
Yet no one mentions that there are 300 officers assigned to the Academy. That’s a whole district.

and let you piss-n-vinegar young bucks handle it...i was you back in the day too
STAY SAFE
To the guy in hq......... did you get in on a bid that was posted ?
Yes there are people who put in their time on the street who work in HQ. My beef is with people with 2 freaking yrs on, your ass should be out on the street learning the job! The other problem is that a lot of these dopes go on to become merit supervisors. There should be at least a minimum of 5 yrs before you can bid to in an inside spot, hell maybe even a unit.

I love the "I put in my time" guys!
15yrs???
I left after 32+, all in districts & on the street and I wouldn't change a thing!
Let them handle the paper jobs, let the guys and gals assigned to the district patrol.
It would free up the street officers to get the job done, since most of their time is spent on BS paperwork. They might even be able to get a lunch in!
It should be 3rd watch on Fridays all year until they are all replaced by civilians. These orders have come down many times before, to cut back on sworn personal on desk jobs. But, for some strange reason it never really happens. The district and unit commanders just ignore the orders and play games with paperwork to keep their special ones behind a desk. There is no reason that most admin jobs cannot be handled by a civilian. Now that the mayor claims patronage is dead and gone ( LOL), maybe the city can finally hire some competent people. There might be a run at the uniform store this weekend. And, there will always be the exceptions and the downtown dollies who will never go out on the street.I know people who spent decades at HQ
House mice gonna wind up at Weedpatch Camp
The old and tired smoke and mirrors show.
If that’s true the uniform shops will be busy.

Time for all of the other sleeper districts to chime in. 500! We Are SPARTA!!
Another scam by HQ's, maybe even Mr. CHiPs came up with it, who knows. By putting HQ's folks out on the street on Friday's during the day shift sounds like a good idea only for the Community, low information folks, the media and Groot. She's got something to crow about as Springfield turned out to be a Bust. Come on folks, days on Friday, in winter, for 6-7 weeks. Do they have sufficient, cars, cameras and will their winter uniforms even fit. There are a number of folks up at HQ that look like " a pare with legs - Special Ed being one of them.
Nice try at slight of hand. Desperation at the end of the year to keep it under 500. Other wise pulling their pud during the rest of the year. Another half assed, horse shit operation.

Since the house mice at headquarters aren't bid, there's really nothing to prevent their hours being shifted.
Anonymous 12:26.
By what stretch of the imagination do you consider what you do at HQ “work”. Please tell me about your work. If your a “house cat” fine, but please don’t use the word “work” in front of us that still do.
Trust me, "they" wont be getting into any "stuff", they will be to busy hiding.
Even if they clear out headquarters or any other location and put more officers on the street, good luck finding cars for them to use. Most district don’t have enough cars now and that’s besides all the cars waiting at the garages to be fixed.
every Friday , shootings everyday and 24 hours a day , not from 0800-1600hrs . detail every full duty officers back to districts .
not enough cars , put them on foot patrol , in high crime areas . sick of these cowards hiding inside .
did Charlie have a uniform inspection for all his captains and above , time to clean house Charlie .
if you go to roll call in 6 or 10 , it starts 10-15 minutes late . no supervision at all .
get activity of all CAPS Officers , 40 hours a week and they do zero , lots of shopping , long lunches , come late ,leave early .
do they wear proper uniform , grooming standards , wear body armor or body cameras while on patrol shopping ?
nope , they do zero .
Nothing like a well crafted plan to try and undermine the 4th Running of the Jugghaid SpecialEd 500.
mmm-mm-mmmmm.
Took the CPS educated, 21st Century TaskForce skipper, the abominable 3-1/2 year wonder, DrRev Jugghaid ‘Slumps’ SpecialEd PhD, to finally launch his latest and final community violence reduction strategy...
The House Mouse Daytime Deployment Initiative.
Being overseen by Johnny-come-lately, hired help day laborer, interimus maximus, The Man of La Hatchet, Magnum C.B.
Should send them to the furthest outposts from HQ, it’s not like they’ll be doing case reporting.
Kinda wish they never did away with call-boxes. Foot posts would be nice, hmmm?
Oops...did I just spill the beans on a massive Mich Ave downtown dolly window, (for the kids) detail instead of saturated community deployments ???
In any case, the Radio room is gonna need a helper or two in any of those deployments Districts.
District CAPS personnel and vehicles are not going to be affected, their hours are not conducive to the starting times.
Going to have to pull someone of the Beat to fill in.
Get crackin’ mates, Jugghaid’s legacy is on the line.
Let’s kick some ass!
I was going to comment about Phil's closed market but someone beat me to it. It was a joke and so will this end up.
Looking at the stats . . . they should be "shooting" for keeping the total under 600.
Current trend puts the estimated total at 586 for the year.
No way to keep it under 500 unless you call in the national guard.
HQ on the street will change something. Will show the house mice what real police work really is. Will be fun to watch the horror on their faces. Get ready move because the ghetto cat has very sharp claws.
The Lone Ranger Says:
the City should have tried hiring back retired CPD part-time to take non-field positions to free up the younger coppers to go out and deal with the murders, carjackings, gangs, drugs, shootings, burglaries, robberies, etc. They could have worked seasonally during summer months, weekends, and holidays, on desk jobs, lockup, security related assignments, etc; on afternoons and midnight's. Other cities have done it successfully, and it would have probably saved the Taxpayers tons of money paid out for overtime. Many suburban jurisdictions are now utilizing retirees for administrative spots also. The City Leadership has very little innovative thinkers who think crime fighting, instead they think politics, power, and control. They are basically too lazy and stupid to come up with anything viable, even to the point of trying what has been proven to be successful in other jurisdictions. This is just one of many reasons why the City of Chicago is doomed to failure, slowly but surely, in every way. If they would start now they could probably get something working at least somewhat, by next spring. Instead they sit on their hands and play politics with everything, while residents of Chicago are senselessly killed, and seriously injured as a result of Out of Control crime. One thing that was great about Chief Ramsey was that he was at least willing to listen, and actually formulate plans that might work if implemented fully, and when those plans showed promise, he would run with them and at least would try to see if they would bring some success.
Send all HQ Personnel out in Uniform, with ticket books, and at least have them make some traffic stops and write a few tickets. If nothing else there would be some additional revenue coming into the City. No one else in the City's Departments produces any Revenue, they just suck up tax Dollars.

Simple answer. They won’t. Their bosses will protect them. Only way they will hit the streets is if the mayor personally overseas the idea
Carried in those districts on paper, never leave 35th

Won’t have to dust off the rusty cuffs. Most haven’t ever been used and haven’t been in the job long enough to rust
Fetal+not being proactive-putting your self in danger=house fucking mouse job!! Best decision me and other made !
no one needs to worry, majority of slugs are "light duty" and half scammed their entire career not being full duty. Its like they were perfectly in good shape when hired, but all of sudden these scammers found the golden ticket for the rest of their career by pretending to be half way disabled by their crooked doctors. don't expect many from HQ to hit the street, because they will all exempt themselves with their fake medical problems. most have been there for years and years (MUST BE NICE!) while all of us are breaking our backs sitting in a patrol car because we don't have clout and connections.
I’m assigned to the second watch. You want me to work the 3rd watch pay me time and a half.
WTF??
It's like a self cleaning oven. Don't even need Easy Off. Just turn it on and leave it alone.

Because if they change your start time by more than 2 hours it will be a lot of overtime. So just keep them on 2nd watch at straight time.
I couldn’t find my vest or belt, when I did I had to spray WD-40 on my cuffs to make them functional. Then, when I get to the district this morning I realize no one brought coffee or donuts, not cool. Lucky for me, I’m not camera trained or taser qualified. Oh well........ Thanks Patrol we appreciate your hard work.
I work at HQ after working 17 years on a beat car in a hellhole district. Applied to a unit on a NOJO and managed to get in with - gasp - NO CLOUT. Most people assume they won't get anywhere without a phone call so they never apply for anything. They just bitch about how unfair it is. Now I'm M-F and have weekends and holidays off with my family. No lawsuits, no CRs, no more dealing with shitbags. You think I give two shits about being called a house mouse? NOPE! Most people at HQ couldn't care less about having to go out one day a week - on days! It's actually a welcome change of scenery. Everybody shouts "stay fetal" at every opportunity and complains about how the beat cars keep getting shit on, but then tries to rip on people that figured out how to escape all the bullshit on the street. Give me a fucking break!!
Mayor basically wants to take over CPD by making a new appointment and giving the Police Board all these new powers
https://chicago.suntimes.com/platform/amp/city-hall/2019/11/14/20965512/lori-lightfoot-expand-chicago-police-board-powers
Day in and day out all everyone on here says is how fetal they are or complain about POs not being fetal enough. Yet as soon as they say us 35th street cops are going on the street, everyone bitches about how were not the real police, how fetal we are, or how lazy we are. As far as bitching we aren't going to be working 3rd watch - were in the same union as you, no one is switching your watch assignment so why would you think they should switch ours? You complain when they mess with your car assignments, partner, or start times, yet you think we should be told to come in for a different watch assignment. I'd like to see you told to come in and work a different watch tomorrow and see what you have to say then.
It's about time, this is becks idea not the moronic idiots with the gold stars, they are rightfully frightened and scared that "Charlie" will be cleaning house, this little bit of bullshit will not save them the dump is coming soon God willing!
Is Lemmer civilian boy toy gallagher gonna walk the beat or just keep giving direction with his hand??
I've got an idea. Prosecute the offenders and keep them behind bars. Seems simple, but it works.
So they are going to 2nd watch? That will really help. Probably have no idea how to fill out an arrest report or even a case report. It's been so long, I bet their PC doesn't even work to start an arrest report. And as for casual Fridays? They dress casual almost every day. What a joke!!
got enough cars to go around?
better get training wheels for the house mouse bike patrol.

I don’t know where some of this info comes from but it’s amazing how day in and day out all everyone talks about is being fetal and not doing jack shit but then bash everyone at HQ. Why in the flying fuck would I ever wanna go work anywhere anymore. You’re right. I’m a house mouse. About 6 months now and the smartest thing I ever did after spending 15 years in the ghetto. I’m over it. I’m done. Ain’t going back. So go ahead and keep talking about it. Not all units at HQ do casual Friday’s. We sure as hell swipe in and out everyday as it gets checked daily. I don’t leave early and I work throughout the day. By no means am i killing myself like i was in a district but i put in my time. How about having some decency and not constantly bashing everyone in the building cause there’s plenty of people here that put in their time and just had enough of the bullshit. And there’s plenty of do nothings, clouted babies up here as well. But do me a favor and don’t clump us all in that group. I was smart enough to get out and i don’t regret it. I recommend you do the same. Good luck.

Okay boomer. Thank you for your service
Of they are taking requests, can you send someone from the FOIA section to 11 to help us out? At the very least it'll give us a laugh.

No issue with being a “house mouse”. Just take a cut in pay. You don’t want to deal with the bullshit, why do you think we get our so well? Take $15 an hour and ride out your illustrious career.
Perfecto! SSC, you rock.

Hey recruit been there, done that! Not my fault you to dumb not to get out while the getting is good. Now go be a good boy and get the boss a few PCI's, ISR's and some blue cards so you can keep your management spot.

Rumor from the medical section is that a whole bunch of people just hit the medical....
I believe the powers that be have 48 hours to get a camera assigned to an officer once a supv. puts the request in the system. PPOs on their cycles get them real fast.
Why come no Sgt's deployed ?
There are more than enough in HQ to go around...
Charlie wants activity from supervisors, he doesn’t understand why they do zero police work .
This is getting better everyday .

By what stretch of the imagination do you consider what you do at HQ “work”. Please tell me about your work. If your a “house cat” fine, but please don’t use the word “work” in front of us that still do.

It’s not all rainbows and butterflies at HQ. I know this guy that got a papercut on his shooting hand from all the paper we push. He had to go on duty disability for it. I know this other guy who got real bad tennis elbow but he still pushes through because we’re warriors at HQ.

Less than 500. Outrageous...
Two shooting outside CPS schools today , one in the am and one pm . Where are all the police from headquarters?
Better get them out in the field everyday. Charlie Beck as you can see shootings occur 365 days a year 24 hours a day .
An off duty merit sergeant shot a special needs unarmed black youth , you might want to have the feds look at that one .
I don’t know who is more of a hand job, the guy working headquarters, or the Millennial

Wow a whole 15 years, your practically a hero.
Saw a couple of posts that suggest They do paper. If They do paper just what in the jell are you going to do? Remember Fetal is the order of the day.
WTF??
It's like a self cleaning oven. Don't even need Easy Off. Just turn it on and leave it alone.

That is right. So, put more offices working at HQ on the 3rd watch. No need for everyone to work days. And, yes, a previous writer said they got their job at HQ without any clout. Yes, that is possible, for I did also before i retired. And, we did have to work a fulll day, a rare early duck for personal reasons , but usually not. But, there are units and individuals who do scam and are allowed to get away with it. We had one sergeant who went to law school on company time and two sergeants and one patrolmen who ran their law business from the HQ building. The office secretary actually spent most of her time doing private work. One of those sergeants went on to be a district commander and one was a Deputy Chief. Yes, these things did happen. No one wanted to be a rat. I am sure it still goes on.
The female po on 1112s beat filling in from hq is from 011. She was always the police and imo still is. At least we got some good ones who actually help.
Wow, I am so impressed, 2 dumbshits on here are bragging about how it took them 15 and 17 years to get into HQ. who the fuck do they think they are bullshitting? Took me 20 years to get inside "on a legitimate bid", after 20 in a few ghettos with time on the tac teams. Oh, sure they don't know anyone and of course they have no clout. LOL
Day in and day out all everyone on here says is how fetal they are or complain about POs not being fetal enough. Yet as soon as they say us 35th street cops are going on the street, everyone bitches about how were not the real police, how fetal we are, or how lazy we are. As far as bitching we aren't going to be working 3rd watch - were in the same union as you, no one is switching your watch assignment so why would you think they should switch ours? You complain when they mess with your car assignments, partner, or start times, yet you think we should be told to come in for a different watch assignment. I'd like to see you told to come in and work a different watch tomorrow and see what you have to say then.
11/15/2019 12:44:00 PM
No sir. I really don’t care if you do a shred of work.. but what I do want is for you and several of your friends to come to my district for more manpower and more names on the sheets so I can take a day off. Welcome to the districts because all of the inside spots are going to civilians. Retire or man a car my friend.
Assign everybody at 35th Street to the third watch. That way, when they're needed on the street, they can help out when the streets are busy.
Send people out of HQ to work in districts and they will be on desk duty within the first week
Most of the desk jockeys at HQ are assigned to 4th watch. They can start you at anytime . This was the result from the grievance from the 2016 world series
I remember when the closed market guys would call for a car and then tell us that there were people selling drugs on their post and we should do something about it. House mouses are house mouses for a reason.
The brain trusts at HQ don’t figure out anything, Cameras, squads? Duh.
Its absolutely disgusting working the streets in most districts of our city now. I don't blame a person one bit for trying to find a position away from it all. In fact, id take it in a minute. It blows out there! You think you get some special award for working the streets? What'll “street cred” get you these days- PTSD. Or a civil suit.Or CR initiations of false allegations. Trucking mentals all day. Or an accidental video of your tampon because your camera has a 4 minute buffer.
Buy another round of overtime for all my friends,and I will take a double,nice and neat.$$$$
Inside vs outside
No headaches
No dealings with the citizens

Or are you still using the kilbasa mold?
Too many house mice at 35/Michigan. Did you take the job to work the streets to prevent crime or to sit on your fuck'n ass at HQ's doing civilian work task ? What a fuck'n JOKE!!!!
To the couple of posters whining about this and ranting that we are all the same.Trust us that are out on the street,as soon as you introduce yourself as working at headquarters we all roll our eyes and tune out.Who are any of you kidding?
When McCarthy first applied for the Superintendent job with the Daley regime his first question to the powers that be was why dont your street supervisors have any arrests or police activity of any type?Seems as though new Super Beck is asking that same question.
There are a few female police officers at 35th street who were and still are the real police . Who will handle a bad situation better then some of these beefing “men”! I worked with a few and I’ll go to battle anytime with them so to you bad muthas who got your spot fair and square, those negative posts aren’t for you. CPD RETIRED SEMPER FI
Sherrif here... I have nothing but respect for everyone here, whether district or HQ. But even the guys with 15 and 17 years on who worked hard to get to where they're at have admitted that there are guys who got into comfy spots with only two, maybe three years on.
This makes sense because we had a guy that graduated from our sheriff academy and was supposed to work Div 9 of the jail -- the super max -- the roughest part of the whole compound.. he ended up crying (literally) and never finishing FTO. Ended up being a full year without a job and 6 months after that (a full 1.5 years) I learn hes with CPD. He's still with you guys, I know because his wife works here. I'm tempted to go to your HQ and see if he's there, would give me a good chuckle.
It doesn't matter how many officers you put on the street to saturate the high crime areas, the animals will still hunt and kill each other. Members of these communities need to start taking responsibility for their actions and learn how to communicate without violence. After 23 years on the job, I have noticed a pattern with these people. They all lack conflict resolution skills required to resolve disputes peacefully. I get it, driving around some of these areas is depressing. But it doesn't have to be that way if everyone living in these high crime areas works together to make their communities safer. I see the frustrations of daily living that aggravate the human predisposition to conflict. Sadly, unacceptable and inappropriate behavior in the home, community and the street seems to be the norm for these people. Conflict, the stuff of life, has so substantially disrupted community life that many of these people cry “We want justice, We want peace” when they should be looking within to find peace. It's time to stop blaming everyone else for the problems of the inner-city ghettos. It's time for the Mayor and Superintendent to start calling these people out on their own shit. Accountability and transparency only work when everyone is held accountable-not just the police. Until this happens, continue to watch the bodies drop--
And as for casual Fridays? They dress casual almost every day. What a joke!!

Ha most wear their uniform cause they're full duty and full of themselves
majority of slugs are "light duty" and half scammed their entire career not being full duty. Its like they were perfectly in good shape when hired, but all of sudden these scammers found the golden ticket for the rest of their career by pretending to be half way disabled by their crooked doctors. don't expect many from HQ to hit the street, because they will all exempt themselves with their fake medical problems.
I could understand your post but after jacking my shoulder in a fight, being hit by a car while in my parked vehicle and another time where I followed procedures beep-beep-beep wound up with multiple jacked up bad surgical procedures (yes plural) I still try to get back what I might never. I was told twice I'd be on disability by shit city Dr's and I came back to work da streets. So I still try for myself, then the job
MY poor friend at headquarters
its nice to be able to leave your weapon in a drawer and actually forget it at work
that pesky bullet proof vest that sits in your car trunk very clean.
not stepping in dog shit in vacant lots
searching piss bum
being recorded by victim so they can file a lawsuit
bosses who are scared of being on the west side
BUT at HQ you cant find a parking spot

Send all HQ Personnel out in Uniform, with ticket books, and at least have them make some traffic stops and write a few tickets. If nothing else there would be some additional revenue coming into the City. No one else in the City's Departments produces any Revenue, they just suck up tax Dollars.
11/15/2019 11:42:00 AM
Hello! Isn’t FETAL the new work? Why would you fuck over people that would wear the same uniform? Is that what you do? Traffic stops and a few tickets? Seems if you had the same spots you would be happy to go out and make some traffic stops and write a few tickets, hey Officer FETAL?
They should re-evaluate all these light duty rangers too. The amount of bullshit light duty scammers is out of control.
What, if anything, will happen when Beck is on the same elevator as the sworn female with the Bozo hair color? Or the other one with the grizzly-bear claw fingernails? Would you want to be on the same elevator or prefer to be miles away when it happens?
The only sworn police officers at Headquarters should be the main floor security staff and the Exempt staff members overseeing operational aspects of the department in my opinion. The same for office positions in all Districts. All sworn members should be out in the field. The City should hire back retired police officers that have the experience to fill those inside administrative positions. Without question there are a litany of retirees that would and could fill those admin positions. These “inside spots” don’t require a sworn police officer. Having these positions filled with people who understand what needs to be accomplished would enhance the administrative side and field operational performance of the entire department. This new Mayor needs to give this a little thought to start to bring this police department back to the highly respected organization it has been recognized as for decades gone by. It’s a terrible thing when we speak negatively of our brothers and sisters in blue at CPD. I believe there are many people among the people we serve that are not man/woman enough to wear our badge. Those people love reading the negativity that surfaces on this respected blog and believe every word they read here. Not to discard those that just hate us regardless. After 30 years of service I respect everyone that has worn our uniform whether your assigned inside or out , I hope all my colleagues can achieve my mindset towards each other. Stay safe my trusted and true friends in blue!
OT / Was at a wedding this fall at house of blues downtown. Went to a bar nearby afterwards with friends and family (State and Illinois). My god, the fucking hood creatures operating in/around that corner! Had a cig or 2 outside. Loved seeing the young buck (maybe 13 yo) purposely bumping and mean mugging whitey. Really enjoyed seeing dude spitting packaged cocaine from his mouth and selling to other urchins. This used to be a marquise spot in the city - am i right?
As the son of long retired CPD/CPS workers, most decent folks (those pulling the societal wagon, not those sitting in the wagon) understand the police’s predicament. Your hands are tied and your collective police powers are often rendered moot. Fuck the media, the city and motherfuck IL. Stay safe and always know that good people have your back.

dont worry be happy eddie burke clout cpd buddies who work at hq will not have to work in the district

Stay safe in there. Don't forget to get up every 30 minutes to stretch so you don't get hemroids or strain your eyes from all the youtube videos and online shopping you do
Sworn officers should not be doing CAPS unless they are willing to write some Parker’s ,movers , ANOV , ISR ,Blue cards . Not just sit around doing nothing , taking long lunches , shopping , arriving late ,leaving early . Look in 3 , more in CApS then in beat cars on days , uniforms , grooming standards lol 😂, look at Commander.
Are Rahm's people still doing the counting or shall I say fudging da numbers ?
When you first became a policeman, did you take the job to work the streets or to be an ass kissing house mouse at HQ's ?????
McDonald's is run by one CLOWN, 35/Michigan is run by a bunch of CLOWNS!!!!
I’ll betcha, they all don’t go out. The chosen will stay back, sit there like they belong in the office, while the bosses pick and choose the officers that go out. Total bullshit. Go in every office and send them all out . Put your blue on and be the police..be proud of why you took this job. Serve and protect and look sharp when you go out there. Command respect people, look in the mirror and remember you took an oath to serve the community and the City of Chicago.
So many have no shame being a house mouse. Did you take the job to work the streets to prevent crime or to sit on your candy ass at HQ's doing civilian work????? Real fuck'n police work, what a JOKE!!!!!
Don't forget swipe in and swipe out. What a JOKE!
35/Michigan is a JOKE!

I'm curious, in your opinion, what percentage of the folks at HQ got their spot due to some sort of clout? And just how overstaffed are they there and what percentage could be moved back to the street? What percentage waste much of their day doing everything else but their job? How many of the spots inside could be handled by a civilian or perhaps a retiree, if they ever hired back folks to do such work? What kind of work are you doing inside? I think it would drive me nuts working there as it would be hard to get away from the inept dolts, the pompous attitudes and the high school type cliques.
How about the girl from 12 that went on the medical for a bad knee 6 years ago and has been at callback and now gun registration. Too injured to work the streets but can start a FLAN business and attend dances and festivals promoting her pastries. Must be nice to run your business on company time JF
Did yolanda buy them at least a happy meal
This ISR thing in placing Officers assigned to The Street, the actual Officer that will do most, if not all their time on The Street, DIRECTLY in DANGER for reason(s)that make ZERO sense. One being the Time wasted where The Street Officer could being doing something far more productive.
When The CPD advertises that they’re hiring CALL IT WHAT IT IS! We are currently accepting applications for STREET OFFICERS. There’s people that carry weapons for no good reason cuz their career which will be extended cuz they’re on The INSIDE Gossiping, making runs for food, drink, and even grocery shopping.
I watched a Suck up to “Iron Mike” compliment him on his Culinary “skills.” Emerill Lagasse suddenly is the head of The Watch?! Sad thing is Emmeril would be a far better W/C then “Iron Mike” on his best day. The mouse would do anything to stay off The Street. This Job is now the equivalent of hiring a maid who says “I don’t do windows and I DEFINITELY don’t do anything on The Street.”
Are you a hired as a mouse or are you hired as a 20 year “Street Ccpper.”
Which one is more respected? It doesn’t matter cuz “The Street Copper” is fucked anyway.
Call it what it is!
nothing wrong with police officers working inside , but it should be by seniority
anyone can be trained to do office work
