SDI Over?
Supposedly, SDI has been cancelled. Meanwhile, certain Districts are handing out OT pretty consistently.
SDI will be back if the retirement numbers we're seeing out of Personnel are near accurate. Over 1,000 this year.
Besides, with the sub-zero week coming up, there really isn't a need for SDI until the weather warms up....same as a few years ago.

Last I heard, 018 has the best OT available for in district..any other districts allowing doubles every day and every RDO?
Here’s an idea or 2, Spend more time with your kids? Golf. Lift weights. Explore and expand your hobbies. See friends you haven’t seen. You only have one life, don’t spend every waking moment working.
And if you resent your wife and your kids, get a part time job.
Maybe the carjackers will torch the vehicle while they are driving it away.....
After all, fire is known, even by them, to be warming....
Will you need extra police on the streets to keep the homeless bums and illegal aliens from freezing to death this weekend?
Going to have to pack the lobbies all over again!
The Great Unwashed Democrat Welfare Voters have a way to be themselves regardless of the weather.
Sucks with SDI, now we have to work with Sgt DoucheHerst of CTA. Never met a bigger beatoff supervisor in my life. Works half shifts but talks down to all PO’s and brags about DeVries putting him in for merit Lt. Total fuckstick
Bad rumor
Calm down all, no need to sell your Jeep Wranglers of Toyota 4 Runners yet.
Overtime always goes away in these cold winter months.
Especially as short-handed as we are, it will come back, possibly under some other name/mission, in March or April.
The city has let numbers dwindle down to the point where the warmer months simply cannot function with hiring back officers to fill in the gaps.
Who’s the wanna be SWAT dude from 010 who follows his girl in 011 on midnights on and off duty? Guy gets off work in 010 then comes to 011 to make sure nobody talks to his girl lol or meets up on duty at the start of her shift all secretive. Youre embarrassing yourself dude we all see ya and hear youre so protective but no need to watch over her aint nobody interested lol. Tell her to go do some actual work will ya?
SDI was a total waste, you can only clear out 3 hour old jobs while explaining to the caller why the car with two officers with their flashing lights 50ft away did nothing so many times. You start to feel like an asshole. Increasing overtime in districts to help with raps was a good decision, whomever decided that.
There always was always will be overtime initiatives some easier than others. Wait a minute who am I kidding the overtime is always easy. Great big money. It is great. It will be back. Relax stay with your family a little bit. You can always work. CTA or other employment we have one of the jobs in the world where there’s plenty of extra money if you wanna work.
If it’s been said once, it’s been said 1 million times… we’re our own worst enemies and we ruin everything.
But not responding to an OIS - WITH AN OFFICER SHOT - just blocks away? In-fuckin-excusable. The officers who couldn’t be bothered… all captured on POD video, need to be outed and ostracized.
That said, watch for a similarly structured Special Employment program to rise from the SDI ashes. It’s a necessary evil, as manpower numbers have been trending in the wrong direction for quite some time. We’re all going to be spanked for the actions of these two lazy fucking morons who couldn’t play the game. But once spring time rolls around and the temperatures start rising, is when this shit show will again resume full throttle. And that’s when we’ll all be putting in days for “SSP” - Snellings Scarecrow Police.
OMG! What are all the OT whores going to do? SDI is all some of them talk about. It's ironic some of the biggest whiners on this job work it 7 days a week.
Is it true an SDI is on camera driving away from the Prada shooting. That and units failing to answer up when called could be the real reason why. The dogs on the job know who they are.
How am I ever gonna pay for my new motorboat with 3 propellers and tiger print seats.
Meanwhile, certain Districts are handing out OT pretty consistently....
No OT allowed by the WOL for 016/days, We have 2 or 3 down cars daily. It has to benefit him, his side business, and side piece before he lets us work one RDO.
He got caught blaming our commander then lying to our commander about it but still smugly walks into rollcalls thnkng he is liked.
Effective end of Jan
Here it comes, all of the people saying, "I never worked a minute of special, live within your means," F-that, Porsches are nice, paying for my kids education is nice, vacations are nice. I will sacrifice my free time anyway I want to get what I want.
They need more migrant money.
Almost 100% guarantee it's back by May 1st.
Time to use more A.I. for police work.
A.I. could work the callback and district desks.
You can make an educated guess that the bulk of those possible 1000 retirements will occur on or before August 15th.
OT- anyone know anything about the new stroke Sgt at mass transit? Chris Coistra. The kid has 2 months as a Sgt and already walking around like he’s a salty veteran. Heard he has been in an inside, do nothing, unit his whole career. Who is his juice? Kinda sad what the dept has become.
They tightened down the HQ OT. It’s now seniority based and limited to 1 LT, 3 SGTs, and 20 POs.
Oh no! Days in 16 has 2 or 3 down cars. How do you make due? Does this mean you have to handle 2 jobs per day instead of 1?
Now Kees me you fool...

You didnt even spell his name right. Hes actually seems like a real nice guy. Not sure why you are posting about a guy you never had a conversation with.
Biggest waste of money. Bunch of do nothings. Proven time and time again. Example 1, the fools who watched tv while the murderer walked away in 18.

Wedster's son in law.
Just less people and time slots...
Sdi in 18 and 1 are essential.
It’s not going away.....relax.
Anyone with 20 plus years will be scheduled.
But you will be taking assignments and generating cb #’s on signed complaints..
Good job to all the asshole working 1st watch SDI in 018. Hope that 2 hour duck was worth it and you all get suspended from all special employment indefinitely. You fucked it up for everyone. Some responded but not all. If and when they roll out a new OT initiative it has to be centralized like VRI was. Your ass don’t come into the parking lot until 15 minutes before the end of the tour. If you’re not ok with that then don’t sign up.

Why would you get a part time job when when you can make double the pay working OT. Not too many guys have part time jobs paying $60-$75
Why would anyone worry about someone else working overtime? It’s nobody’s business how you spend your money or your reason for working OT. Different officers have different priorities about OT and what they want to spend their money on
Watch the Pod video. That's probably why they're doing this. I don't blame them. Too many lazy ass, netflix watching, nap taking, money stealing non police action Coppers out here.
You don't have to be hard charger of the 90s but wtf?!?!

I can respect that, but make sure your kids aren’t calling you Steve instead of Dad.
Instead of SDI, work OT in your district on a CAR. Not in Shotspotter shopping on internet or on some bs traffic mission where you work 15 min and get paid for 4.5 hours. Meanwhile there are 99 units responding to 1A jobs in backlog
Please leave 16 MO alone!! It's not his fault he has been coddled his entire career!!
Older guy once told me that you can trade your time for money, but you can not trade your money for more time.

Sounds almost as bad as the goof sent to 012 Purkiss. Lori Lightfoot once called him a ticking time bomb with a gun. Slow down your in 012. We can break you. We all know people too.
city must have lots of fed money that they need to get rid off. I never saw such waste. But then again that jeep wagoner is nice
Knew that was going to happen. Sgts working half days, detectives not being where they’re suppose to be, p.o.s not answering up for calls…..
Thank BOD DICKS. another overtime initiative ravaged by the greedy vultures of this dept. It wasn’t enough for them to destroy their own in-house Ot initiative they had to sign up for SDI and retreat to their same ghost patroller tactics. BOD is the black sheep of CPD. That whole bureau should be dismantled and rebuilt.
Wasnt there a fight and a shooting a couple of weeks ago? They should probably keep sdi.
Money needs to spent on illegal immigrants.

Says the bonestroke without the time on to get the more desirable start times and/or programs.
And as such, you haven’t clue the fucking first how these things work. I’ll never be one to show others my playbook so douchebags like yourself get a free education from a consummate veteran. It’s what us people with time on call “keeping them stupid”. That said…
given the time of incident means it was likely one of the latest start SDI cars. Which means it was surely people without a lot of time on smart enough to know how to play the game properly combined with the ever present sense of entitlement.
Handwavers can be blown off. Ghetto pooches fighting in the street? Blow them off and keep driving. Flagged down with Baby Mama Drama? Avert your gaze and continue happily motoring in the opposite direction.
But exiting stage left on a 10-1 / Shots Fired At and By the Police??!! You pathetic motherfuckers need to be fired. Too bad there’s no “immediate termination” charges for instances like this.
Fucking COWARDS.
I heard they will soon be getting rid of all the Homan Square P.O.’s because they do nothing but disappear. Heard they ALL will be going back to the SS and WS districts and even some downtown ones…Be careful what you wish for…

Maybe we can work security at some of the stores that need help or how about this store owners take notice this would kind of be funny to watch the assholes that steal, and when the loud siren goes off, watch and see what they do too bad, this thing cannot have a automatic weapon to give them a dirt nap right away and then it could be used to sweep up the dirt, throw them in the dumpster and they’re done fully cured

I guess my first question would be why would a new sgt, as u say, be assigned to mass transit already? Shouldn’t he at least be in a district for a year, maybe 2 to learn how to actually be a sgt first before being whisked away into some hidden unit.
(OT) how many times have you worked with a copper who puts his skinny jeans on his hat on backwards he has two or three guns exposed, has the chew in his jaw, drives the unmarked, tactical car and acts like this from training day and you look at them and say there’s definitely something wrong with this guy;

I don’t think the question is who is his juice because so many coppers as we know get promoted by merit due to being connected been going on for years but now that you decided to call him out whoever he is, you could bet they’ll be no more of these early ducks or hold my slips! But then again, you’re probably just a shit stir. It doesn’t even work they’re just trying to make it harder on everybody else just like they do with the coppers at the airports. It only takes one to start and everything flows downhill but then again, better part of the point is we have no leader ship anyway so really who cares
Cops on their deathbed never say I should have worked more.
ET’s and D unit messed it up for everyone again. We are our worst enemies. If we were United as a department all should cancel SDI and special for the rest of the mth as a protest. Including CTA. Let’s see how long that ghost man power will last.
This was overdue. Living next to an SDI fixed post really gives you some perspective. I can sympathize with laying low but there is an unfortunate systematic issue within this department that discourages any and all activity particularly with VSWO. Even if its just paper. The baseline should be to do your job when necessary and not shy away from it, not ask if there's a paper car available to take a job that will take you 15 mins tops to type out yourself. Think about this as a civilian taxpayer, would you really want your money being spent on POs who won't even cut paper?
Can we name the cowardly PO’s on SDI that drove away when that PO was shot??
They tightened down the HQ OT. It’s now seniority based and limited to 1 LT, 3 SGTs, and 20 POs.
Is this why H.P (AKA the Rock) got dumped back to 017 because he was spinning the OT clock at HQ.

You should have seen the lists of people signing up. House mice with less than 5 years on the job, clout heavy sergeants with less than a year as a sergeant working at HQ with unlimited OT. They were just as bad as the greedy BoD vultures and destroyed their own OT initiative.

All SDI Districts do it moron. And after listening to the transmission I could see why they left. It was said no officer was hurt. Can’t blame them for miscommunication. From what I heard those who had a radio came back.

That's a long winded way of saying DeVries brother. It's like listening to my old lady.
Look at all you salty miserable pricks commenting about this sgt kid in Cta. Who cares? Or about detectives and ET’s? How do you know it wasn’t some regular patrolmen that messed up the overtime? How do you know the department didn’t stop it because it’s the middle of January and the sanctuary city is running out of money? Some of you losers are pathetic. If the overtime is there, sign up and work it if you want. If you don’t want to work extra then don’t. If you are so hard up for money that you relied on overtime so bad that’s your fault. Now deal with the consequences of not being fiscally responsible with your money. So much hate for your fellow officers who are sergeants, detectives, ETs…. Pathetic. Learn how to study for an exam and maybe one day you can move up too you bitter losers.

Yup been taken care of his entire career. His mother-in-law is a former gold star. He was on the street for maybe his first couple years on the job and then went straight to Intelligence.
I got an idea. How about taking some of the OT given to 025 and giving it to the rest of the districts? I can’t even work RDO’s in my district yet coppers in 025 can work both RDO’s and super extensions… I know someone personally who ranked in over 200k as a tact officer in 025. Wtf? They say every district is gonna tighten their OT… I’ll believe it when I see it.
Tip to all young PO’s. Eliminate all debt. Retire early. Enjoy life. Take whatever ot works for you. Don’t let the job work you, work the job.

This is so true personally knew two canine handler‘s in the past who worked all the special employment they could always working stacking the money away of died in their 40s, leaving their families children, but had a good deal of money stacked away. It’s just not worth it because you’re eating garbage constantly you’re not going to the gym to take care of yourself you’re not taking care of your family it’s all about chasing the dollar being retired. You really don’t need as long as the pension is OK,a ton of money. Chasing the dollar to have that jacked up jeep the big Dodge pick up ram taking elaborate Vacations buying a boat just not worth it. The only thing worth spending the money on is making sure your children are not in the indoctrinations centers Chicago public schools spend the money to send your children to good schools. You don’t need a big fancy house a simple house that you take care of or used car is just fine. Keep it maintained. Your family when you’re on your deathbed will never say I wished my father would’ve worked more. You don’t see as many women on the job working crazy overtime constantly! The truth is women are smarter than men in that way they prioritize things differently. At least the normal women do not the ones that don’t know if they’re a woman or not. Lastly, God bless the police officers and the firefighters for the jobs they do amen.

-Prime example how we are our worst enemies. Instead of being happy for friend your hating. I bet you work in a slow district therefore they don’t offer the same OT. Want more OT work in the hood my friend. 018 has unlimited OT because it became the new Westside.
-Also, coppers advising don’t work all this OT etc must have second incomes or their spouses work. Never hate on a man or women who want to work and better their lively hood.

Look son, you rolled the dice and got caught. Just because everyone else is doing it, doesn’t justify you doing same. That won’t save you if they want to ding you with something. You right, some went to the scene but couldn’t be bothered to stick around and help with crime scene, traffic control, or calls even though they had at least 1.5 hours left on the clock.

If the guy worked it, that’s his business correct? Did he steal the money? Did he take money out of your pocket? I know somebody personally well, not really personally that is a shit talker, jealous that somebody’s working and making extra money and that person would be you. I would also bet you don’t have much time on the job and you’re crying like a little school girl.
SDI should have been eliminated when absolutely useless coppers were showing up to the roll calls without wearing a uniform shirt underneath their outer garment! I’m not sure if that is laziness, cockiness or pure stupidity! I think if these assholes got so comfortable not wearing the basic uniform for volunteer time and a half, maybe it’s time to reassess the program!
Beware all my little cuties. There is a Keesing Bandit impersonator our there.

My feeling is everyone can decide on their own how much OT is good for them. I have no problem with that. Where we disagree tho is when brand new sgts and Lts don’t put any time, or very little time, in a district and go straight to units. It’s BS. I don’t think most officers would have an issue if a person spent a few years in the rank then moved on, but to go after a month or two in a district to a unit… come on.
Good glad they got rid of SDI
These do nothing dogs did nothing
And left early every night.
Work the shift and earn the extra money
Work OT if you want, don’t work it if you don’t want to. Your choice
All the stuff about the family, the kids is great, but for personal reasons some officers have to work OT and the pay is good. I’ve seen guys work second jobs and be away from their families for a lot less money and more work. My point is if you have to work a second job, OT is the way to go. And not everyone is working to pay for a Jeep, boat, motorcycle, etc
Divorce, alimony, child support, medical expense, kids primary schools and college are a few

Can't get SDI- FUCK YOU PAY ME!

I am not the original poster you are responding toward, but I do have time on and when I was a new copper I never saw Dicks working any kind of overtime because they were clearing up cases and making tons of money in court. So you can act like a bad ass and brag about your time on the job and always getting to work the overtime initiatives, but shouldn't you be clearing up cases and going to court every day and making your overtime that way instead of working SDI, CTA and CHA. Then you give a punk answer like that to the po's complaining because you don't know the first thing about patrol because you are in the D unit. Maybe you should do the job you are being paid for and clearing up cases and you wouldn't need to work the OT initiatives because you would be making money in court the way the D unit should be making their overtime. Sounds to me, like you should get demoted back down to patrol or maybe just grow up a little bit.

Do not agree with you on the above post. When I was a new cop Detectives and ET's never worked the overtime initiatives because they didn't need to because they were clearing up cases and getting their money in court. So, maybe if they began clearing up some cases the Dicks wouldn't need to work these overtime initiatives. Maybe if the ET's came out on more calls and gathered evidence to put people in prison for awhile they would be at court more and they wouldn't need to work these overtime initiatives. I think they should do the job they are being paid for in the D unit and the ET unit. then maybe they wouldn't need to work the ot programs. If they are producing like they use to in the past they would be in court making their money. So there is something wrong in both of them units. Not to mention we are all police so why is every one cursing and calling every one names. Some of us need to grow up. It seems like you have time on the job, but it appears you haven't did much growing up. Plus, before you start calling me names I am not a short timer patrolman. I am a sergeant, and I have 27 years on the job and my whole career was spent in patrol. Also, I never worked the OT initiatives because I lived with in my means, and all my kids went to Catholic Schools and are in colleges now. So have at it call me all kind of bad names if it makes you happy. Have at it.
All the overtime is being cancelled so our great Mayor can spend more money taking care of all the illegals that are being bussed into the city. Then he will cry poor the rest of his term. So, get use to it, the illegals matter more to the democrats then the Police do.

Good glad they got rid of SDI
These do nothing dogs did nothing
And left early every night.
Work the shift and earn the extra money
You must work in a downtown district and you’re a lazy piece of shit who expects po’s working their day off to handle your calls. Obviously, you have very little expenses as you still live with your mom. Now, get back down to her basement as she made enough meatloaf to cover the weekend. If you pick your dirty clothes off the floor she will make you hot chocolate with marshmallows.
Why are detectives working SDI, cta etc???? I would think it’s embarrassing to so up. Close some cases and go to court wtf
I’m pretty new on the job but I can say that those SDI officers were the best I seen since joining CPD.
I hope they bring them back. we can really use them.

You on view a domestic battery it is your fucking job clown, none of this “can I get a paper car over here because I don’t know how to handle this” bullshit. I have had an old timer ask how and where to do a case report, really?
It’s amazing how we treat and speak to each other.

You’re getting paid time and half! No where else in this country can you get away with that mentality! Sounds like you’re the lazy piece of shit! You volunteer to work your RDO you should be expected to work!
Did someone wake up FC from his sound slumber?

At some point you realize that we all aren’t “blue”. Some connected are bluer than others.

Look at all you salty miserable pricks commenting about this sgt kid in Cta. Who cares? Or about detectives and ET’s? How do you know it wasn’t some regular patrolmen that messed up the overtime? How do you know the department didn’t stop it because it’s the middle of January and the sanctuary city is running out of money? Some of you losers are pathetic. If the overtime is there, sign up and work it if you want. If you don’t want to work extra then don’t. If you are so hard up for money that you relied on overtime so bad that’s your fault. Now deal with the consequences of not being fiscally responsible with your money. So much hate for your fellow officers who are sergeants, detectives, ETs…. Pathetic. Learn how to study for an exam and maybe one day you can move up too you bitter losers.
Do not agree with you on the above post. When I was a new cop Detectives and ET's never worked the overtime initiatives because they didn't need to because they were clearing up cases and getting their money in court. So, maybe if they began clearing up some cases the Dicks wouldn't need to work these overtime initiatives. Maybe if the ET's came out on more calls and gathered evidence to put people in prison for awhile they would be at court more and they wouldn't need to work these overtime initiatives. I think they should do the job they are being paid for in the D unit and the ET unit. then maybe they wouldn't need to work the ot programs. If they are producing like they use to in the past they would be in court making their money. So there is something wrong in both of them units. Not to mention we are all police so why is every one cursing and calling every one names. Some of us need to grow up. It seems like you have time on the job, but it appears you haven't did much growing up. Plus, before you start calling me names I am not a short timer patrolman. I am a sergeant, and I have 27 years on the job and my whole career was spent in patrol. Also, I never worked the OT initiatives because I lived with in my means, and all my kids went to Catholic Schools and are in colleges now. So have at it call me all kind of bad names if it makes you happy. Have at it.
I’m insulted by the above comment, as others should as well. You seem to have all of the answers Sergeant. I’m sure there are several reasons for Detectives and E.T’s working their days off, but it really isn’t your business. We all can comment about what we feel about supervision as well, but we are too busy to care. Don’t stereotype the detectives and/or E.T’s. Let me ask, are you a detective Sergeant? Probably not. You seem disgruntled. Must not have enough time as a sergeant to get SDI. I see the only people bashing overtime initiatives, are the people who can’t get them. Seniority has its perks. I Chose to work days and it is great! I go to court on my work days as well as my off days. I have been to court Monday through Friday for years. Sorry kiddo, I have enough time to retire maxed, but I still like to work. Don’t judge me for what overtime I choose to work. You mentioned that you don’t work overtime, that’s great! More for me and other like minded individuals. I really didn’t want to reply to your comment, but who are you to judge me for working extra. Hey Sarge, I work overtime almost everyday. Some say I’m a workaholic. Don’t you ever say that I don’t do my job. You don’t know me. I love being standardized by a “27 year on the job sergeant.” As for me, I max out in less than 6 months. I still plan on staying on.
All I want is for everyone to be safe and love what you do. This is my first and last post ever.
Love you all and love this blog

You are correct, after I posted that post, I knew I would regret it. My intention wasn't to insult any one, my intention was to get people to stop putting the short timers down, just because they can. It annoys me that people with time are on here putting down people for no other reason, accept they don't have the time to get overtime. We at one time was a short timer and I do not remember so much animosity between short timers and old timers when I was a short timer. Remember we need these short timers to continue paying into the pension. I get it you love your job, thats very good. If you max out in 6 months and are 55 or older, do not let this city take from you. Just retire and enjoy your retirement with your family and friends. I wish I was only 6 months from being maxed out, I envy you and I am sorry that my post insulted you. That wasn't my intention, after I read your response and re-read my post I knew I was in the wrong. So, I will also follow your lead and never post a comment again.

So much respect to you regarding that post. We all need to contribute more towards bringing everyone together instead of tearing each other apart. This blog is being monitored by more than us. Too bad it wasn’t an exclusive only to us. Let’s not show everyone a division but a unity. We are stronger together. They love when we fight, argue, and tear each other apart. I know there are very deserving individuals that we need to bring attention to, but that is another story. This country is being divided. We don’t need to be as police officers, sergeants, on up.

You actually call him Lt Lalo? Have some respect you fucking loser. I know the guy was merit Sgt and miraculously scored in the top 10 of the LTs test is a just coincidentally related to former merit Sgt to top scorer on previous Lt test former DC Tirado, but he is still a Lt and the rank deserves respect.
They’re cancelled SDI and strong arming for numbers on CTA.
Word has it at roll call, the female Sgt on the 0900 start is saying that if you don’t bring in ANOVS,
The commander is saying he will eliminateCTA spots and give the OT to the Tactical Team.
I thought they’re not allowed to set a quota.???
Unreal
Obviously there is a need for SDI or some sort of voluntary initiative to support the officers in the District due to being short staffed.
I see a lot of name calling and jealousy on here.
First of all, like I was told 23 plus years ago…. Get some time on the Job to get any of these initiatives.
Second, you can’t blame the SDI officers that are assigned to a post to sit there. That’s what your assignment is per the District. With the exception of a 10-1, you can’t leave that post unless your Sgt allows it.
Third, there is no excuse not to show up to a shots fired call, an officer shot, 10-1. However, I could see it happening because this Department has created this narrative of not having your back. It’s not what I would do, but I can see why some officers don’t want to be anywhere near a police involved shooting.
Fourth, the initiative should be defined, if it’s a fixed post, that’s what it is and all these newbys calling people Dogs need to shut the fuck up. That being said, you can’t put a quota on the initiative like they’re attempting on the day9am CTA
