No Bids?

True or not?
  • FOP do something!!!

    Public Trans just snuck in 15 officers with 2 years on and assigned them to their unit. This is complete bullshit. This is why we have a union. DO SOMETHING!!! That is a bid unit. That would mean there would have to have been 60 biddable openings this year in order to be able to bring in 15 p/os via the 20% management option.
Anyone to verify? This would be pretty blatant if true. We would have bid for a unit that barely exists, except for who's running it.

FOP do their job ?? FOP still in the pocket of City Hall,, teachers didn't wait 'til next year for a contract ...a contract that lightweight foot gave teachers whatever they wanted... even Washington Post , Fox's Laura Ingraham astonished by Groot's giveaway of free taxpayer money to CTU ..
Why does FOP has their hands up their ass ? watch Springfield tell groot money not there to give to Chicago..so go ahead and raise property taxes to be the highest in America

Yawwwwnnnn....

I’m in a unit with a take home car, in the top 2% in unit seniority, routinely get in-house OT, been on the job long enough to get a day per month in each of the spec Emp programs, get whatever furlos I want, any DOH and my choice of watch. Using CU is never an issue and I have arguably the lowest stress spot on the job. Hooray for me and f#&k everyone else.

So some 2 year otj kids had a phone call that you don’t with a whole 8 yoj? quit your crying and get some time and whack on the job, kid.

Because Public Trans DOES NOTHING!
They want some officers there that will do something more than 1 ANOV a week.

Granted, there's a few down there that actual do something resembling "police work", but that's about 10 officers total.

How about when they make a class of new sgts and they send some of them straight away to the beautiful northside districts. The ones that had no openings a week before, now miraculously they can accommodate certain brand new sgts while the rest of us are trying to claw our way out of south side districts. That’s unfair and yet it happens every single sgt class. Does our sgt union do a dam thing about it, NO! Pathetic how this city and police department is run. U got clout or know the right people that’s beats all resumes.

Regarding the person who demands the union do SOMETHING...I have a question. Did you file a grievance and let the FOP know about said situation? When was the last meeting you attended to air your apparent disdain for the FOPs lack of action? Did you at least call the FOP and inform them of this situation before bitching and moaning about them not doing anything about a situation they don't know about?

Mass Transit has always been a sketchy unit. From the time I spent there as a young officer to later years talking about the unit to former unit members. I remember seeing no one in that unit in the field, ever, but the ones (new guys and temps) who were being relied on to do all the work. The commanders of that unit were always silent bosses, but heavy. I suspect they were just biding their time until their next big promotion. I'm not surprised to hear about this "personnel transfer". It has always been a place to "hide" and not get noticed. With the rise in crime on the CTA, I'll bet there is some pressure in that unit to now perform. We will know if the old timers in that unit begin to trickle out. Maybe the Good Times are no longer rolling there. They will probably head to the Airports. There, they will fit right in.

exactly what does a captain do for an entire tour of duty ?
another political position for those unqualified to work as a field lieutenant.

pass/fail for sergeant exam , this is to promote minority patrolman that will score a 60-70% and will be promoted meritorious .
note they will never have an all merit unit ti investigate homicides , why not , they are the best and brightest CPD has to offer .

Yup exactly why Lightfoot should have stood her ground and kept her word when she said none of the strike days would be made up. She could have made the teachers feel a little pain like they inflicted on the kids and parents that they claim to care about. Who gets back pay for walking off the job?

It’s easy to point out what’s wrong with a situation but much more difficult to fix it . I do know it’s easier to accomplish your goals when you get along with people . Attacking each and every person you meet just doesn’t cut it ! But you don’t understand that ! Wise men don’t heed advice and fools don’t heed it . Amazing when you get called out at a meeting and you want a written apology . Don’t like being called out ! You don’t like it get a Cr number on me . I know you know how to do that !
