04 July Schedule
More days off cancelled for no particular reason (click for larger version):
At first glance it looks like everyone loses a day off, with 66 and 61 getting the shaft on 04 July.
Do any of the assholes in charge realize that you only get certain holidays two or three times in a ten year span? And when you get one - because everyone knows your days off a year in advance - you might make solid plans to see family you haven't seen in quite a while?
We guess we're supposed to be thankful we even get a single day off?

Don't let these lawless fuckers mess with your life.
Call the fuck off. Get on with your life. They care not about
you. Give them the farewell dime.
Love the three day notice so you can participate in the exchange of duty program.....Exchange with who exactly—- EVERY full duty is cancelled for THREE fckn days....
Legit question: it’s my RDO, I made plans to be out of town, what happens if I don’t show? What kind of discipline can I expect?
How do I utilize the Tour of Duty Exchange Program from 02 through 06 JULY?All Patrol Officers RDO,s are cancelled.Who would I be exchanging with?
Great july 4th RDO is canceled... for a city that hates me they make sure im here all the time.... maybe I can get assigned to "protect" people at a flag burning ceremony.... which I find as offensive as some hearing a N bomb dropped. When do we get the 1% raise and rhe 3% tax increase?
Stop thinking like a poor person.
Be the captain of your own life.
These fucking people don't own you.
Fuck the Man.
Fuck the Machine.
This is terrible for the stock market.
The stock market likes certainty.
And the 2 year experienced know-it-all hard charging meat-wads will still be making stops to show how cool they are. smfh
I'm not coming in on my days off. I've got 28 years on the job and I work midnights...discipline me. That is all.
Is changing third watch to 1730 within the 2 hour rule? Or am I wrong?
Maybe you can heroically keep the deaths below twenty, and the total shot less than 100?

George Orwell, 1984
Get use to it and accept!
We need this put into the contract.
Cancel an RDO with less than a month notice- it’s double time.
Cancel a HOLIDAY RDO, and it’s triple time.
FOP, please help!
We need some sort of protection to dissuade the city from just doing whatever they want at a whim.
If you have DOG Sat and Sunday your day offs not effected unbelievable! So commanders office, foot officers , caps officers , special officers in DOG - sat / sun get the weekend !
Fuck this city and police dept.!
Stay fetal and come in with zeros!
4:23 AM
Be the biggest fucking zero they ever did see.
You just didn't see any crime out there.
That's entirely possible.
Zero - Zero - Zero - Zero
This 04 July weekend will be like Mad Max
Dude has zero fear of cops and prosecution now.
I say 198 shot, 41 dead, at least 4 dead under the age of 10, and 3 diddled by CTU members.
Drop a par form for leave of absence without pay on your day off if they are cancelling it. You don't lose money because it's your day off and they have to give you the day off. If they want a reason tell them it's a personal family matter. If you don't believe this will work you have a week to check into it, it's been done before. If you really wanted this day off and had plans made this is the answer.
Repeal residency, at least I can spend my days off in peace.
I urge you not to go in, it’s not worth the money.
DOG 66/61 will get double time and a half I think not a bad piece of change. Blood money of course.
Where's the First Deputy and the Superintendent names on the order??
Fuck em.
Drain this city of every dime.
Then leave!
Here’s what you do. Take a page from the book of a useless Sgt named Sharon Price from 011. Don’t show up to work. Play stupid don’t answer the door or your phone and then hit the medical with a fake sickness. Or you could just cry to your commander and get a note granting you the day off.
To the moron who said cancel an RDO and you get double time is just ignorant as we get paid 25.50cu or 21.25cu and 4.25 cash if they cancel on a holiday now. All you have to do is read your contract for christ sake.
Maybe I am reading this Order wrong but it appears to me that a Sat-Sun DOG would have their days off cancelled.How would an Officer be able to participate in the Duty Exchange Program from 03 to 06 JULY when everyones days off are cancelled?
Do nothing!
That includes you coppers on the south and west side.
You don’t want to be the next news story.
Sounds to me like Larry Lightloafers looked at the numbers from Father's Day/Juneteenth holiday weekend and are scared of what the numbers could be on the Fourth weekend.
They should be afraid. VERY AFRAID.
4th of July on a Saturday! Expect a full on jihad!
At one point in my career, I sold 60 days vacation back. What a fucking idiot, huh? I regret that. In a three year period, I took off 11 days total. I thought I was doing good for my Country. I was nothing but an ignorant moron. Patriotism is for suckers. They even screwed me on the payout for the vacation days.
I wish I would have never worked with an injury. I wish I would have gone to medical and recorded every nick, bruise, and broken bone. I didn't. I'm paying for that in retirement. I should have had all those surgeries on their time, on their dime.
Take care of yourself. Honestly, I would have given my life for this country. I volunteered for the worst of the shit because I always felt that it was the right thing to do. Now? I wouldn't piss on these people if they were on fire.
Why do I feel so wanted for being so unwanted? 🤯
Just another attempt by Demoncraps to disenfranchise officers to get them to quit. Fetal people.... FETAL!
Oh just wait, people will call off, and our mayor will be on the news again blaming police for blue flu. And then they will take our phones to check on emails and text messages from 2-6. What a joke.
Been on the job for 20 yrs to be exact. The job has changed drastically and not for the better. As most cops know, change is not something we like. Anything that takes away from what we are used to doing is not something we embrace but it is not something we can avoid so we have to change the way we police.
I've been an avid reader for many years and I see the frustration from a lot of my fellow coppers but lately it seems like it's become overwhelming. Given the climate and the way the department has changed we need to work smarter, not harder. We need to come together more than ever before because this whole veteran vs 2 yr wonder attitude is only going to divide us more than we already are. What happened to the comraderie this dept once had? what happened to the true brotherhood of ALL cops? This is not a time to fight against each other or constantly complain about every little thing.
If the city wants to cancel days off and you're willing to come in, take money and hit the city's pockets. If your day off is canceled and you have plans then don't go to work, don't answer your phone, a simple voice mail will NOT suffice so that is that. We as police need to worry about ourselves and our family, we need to selfish in that aspect. Never depend on the dept to take care of you because that's not going to happen. The more conscious we are of that, the better off we will be.
Lastly, sorry for the Russian novel but I hardly comment on here but I just wanted to get a few things off of my chest in hopes that some of you if not all really think about what you need to do to survive this new age policing culture.
Don’t ever make plans if you decide to join the ones proud now totally destroyed totally bastardized by the elected Chicago Police Department. Thankfully thanks to God we got John in as president of the fraternal order of police, he’s a mover and a shaker he will shake this tree like it’s never been shock keep up the good work John do the best you can we know you’re trying please look into the pension also they make sure that they are finding it as they are supposed to be because it is really getting bad they’re also God bless you brother
1730 is within the 2 hour rule. Regardless of YOUR start time/assignment, 3rd watch designated start is 1530.
Again with this bullshit?!!!
I have the day off. My day off is now cancelled and I have to work. Meanwhile, someone with a lot less time than me can put in for comp time, get it approved and have the day off. I don't have an option to get the day off?
How the fuck is this right?
Cancel elective time before you cancel RDO's!
Also, in this notice they talk about tour of duty exchange. Unless I'm reading it wrong, what difference does a tour of duty exchange make if all RDO's are cancelled????
Just stupid
FOP, please fix this shit already

Per FOP contract official 3rd watch start time is 1530 hrs

Most (not all') work very, very hard at getting that (fill in the blank here) weekend off.
Is changing third watch to 1730 within the 2 hour rule? Or am I wrong?
You’re wrong. Official start time for 3rd watch is 1530. City is allowed to adjust your start time by 2 hours. Page 136 of FOP contract.
and that is why canceled day off should be triple time
FOP needs to have this and any RDO's cancelations addressed in writing in the FOP Contract.
Does this mean I might actually some police in the 16th district ?????
just don't leave the station parking lot
If your rdo falls on one of those days, it’s cancelled. It doesn’t say s/s s/m , I think it’s understood ??? Just don’t get the part I’m cancelled rdo but some idiot can write a to from and be off and get his days off too???

It doesn't matter. Since your RDO is being cancelled and you are getting time and one half for the day you can't get anything extra for a change in start time. It is called pyramiding and there are arbitrators' decisions that say that you can't do that.
Can't wait to retire from this shithole!!!!!
AWOP was a 3 days pop 20 years ago.
I’m sure that the mayor will be out of state enjoying the 4th of July holiday weekend. Enjoy ur retro!
Honestly are you guys new or what?? Listen, every year for the past 26 years I’ve been on they have restricted time and cancelled days off for Memorial Day, July 4th and Labor Day. Stop making plans or being surprised about this. If you thought otherwise when you came on then someone really misinformed you about this job. If you wanted weekends off and holidays then you shouldn’t have become the police. Way too many people taking this job in the past 10 years who are so incredibly entitled to straight days, any day off they want and inside spots at 5 years. Get in line because you are nobody on the totem pole.
That's all CPD does every time,cancel RDO's and implement 12 hours. CPD has NO real plans for civil unrest and is run by a bunch of idiot's.
This has to be in writing in the FOP contract.

Don't beat yourself up over this. You sound like a sincere dude. I bet you have no problems falling asleep at night, because you did what you thought in your heart was right.
The Shakespeare quote "To thine own self be true" comes to mind.
DOG 66/61 will get double time and a half I think not a bad piece of change. Blood money of course.
How Sway? We're given time only.
"Cancel an RDO with less than a month notice- it’s double time.
Cancel a HOLIDAY RDO, and it’s triple time."
Yes!! FOP address these issues. I don't want the option of "tour of duty exchange"!!! I don't want to work on the shitty westside "another" day, I want to be away from there as much as possible. I take days off or enjoy RDOs to recapture a small semblance of mental health that this job is destroying 24/7 and the dept can just cancel how I recover because "it's a holiday". EAP should address the effect this is having. I'm a few days from coming off furlo, 20 years on, I hate this job, I hate this city. I don't want to step foot in the station but I don't know what else to do. Now the small reprieve we have in RDO'S and time due is cancelled AGAIN? This city loves to kick us when we're down. The world hates the police, no contract, substandard pay, COPA and media looking to jail you for any mistake. We can't even be away from this HELL when WE feel it's best. EAP and FOP PLEASE do something about this, our mental health consequences of these actions aren't discussed and don't know how much more I can take. I guess it would be cheaper for the city and dept if I or other coppers blow our heads off, so why should they care.
This is why we should have the option of all money for cancelled holidays. If everyone started taking the cash, stuff like this will change.
is it true Blu Flu and slowdowns are in order nationwide ? LE nationwide finally fed up to the tipping point ???

--WRONG--
Restricted time?, yes. Cancelled RDOs..?, nope.
"Do any of the assholes in charge realize that you only get certain holidays two or three times in a ten year span? And when you get one - because everyone knows your days off a year in advance - you might make solid plans to see family you haven't seen in quite a while?"
For those making decisions like this, it's a "feature, not bug."
