Rumors Become Reality

A while back, we received this info:

• Promotions Demotions abound…
  1. Deputy Chief Shemash to Street Deputy. She requested the transfer because she can’t handle the job, so we’ll put her in charge of our most important critical incidents?!?! Literally broke down crying at a deployment from the stress. WTF.
  2. Deputy Chief Calderon to Deputy Chief A3 (replacing Shemash). He’s a much better critical incident supervisor than manager. Again, WTF!!
  3. Cmdr Betancourt to Deputy Chief (replaces Nieves)
  4. Cmdr 025 to Cmdr 010. He was only visiting 025 for a few periods.
  5. Lt. LA (189) to Cmdr 025. Lt. is the working police despite his connections.
  6. 2 Captains promoted. Was originally slated for 5 Captain promotions. (nfi)
  7. Cpt. Fenner moved outta 005 (to make room for a competent Captain to help the new Commander get promoted to Deputy by April 2025 )
  8. Cmdr DH 001 retiring in May 2025 (instead of being demoted). His ppl are negotiating a lateral (lol) until retirement. This guy survives it all (like a cockroach).
  9. Cmdr YP 002 being demoted since she hit the medical during the DNC.
  10. A few more gold stars to be shuffled but the list is not complete.

And so far:

• #1 done
  #2 done
  #3 done
  #4 Stayed in 025
  #5 went to 010
  #6 Lt Artz to Captain (005); one more to go. 
  #7 Captain Fenner to 376
  #8 Papers submitted
  #9 Waiting on permission from MLAS/OLA. 
  #10 Commander Collazo to 376 instead of demoted to Lt for refusing to go back to a District as a Commander (must be nice).
  

And the reason for the "slow rolling"?

• Balance of changes are happening on 12/1 but most were quietly implemented piecemeal to avoid this insignificant blogs post

Thanks for noticing us Larritorious.
