Sounds Like a Great Boss

A credit to the supervisory ranks:

  • O/T; Are we not going to talk about Waller promoting Dachae Blanton, one of the dumbest individuals I’ve ever worked with to Deputy Chief of Detectives last Wednesday. Remember when she was acting street deputy and she came up on the radio and denied the request of a bloodhound because the offender wasn’t bleeding. Now the rest of the areas will experience her micromanaging and vindictiveness wrath that area 2 has experienced for the last 5 years! There is no way Bruno is going to be able to control her, she will just play the race card and win… Good luck everyone and buckle up.

Does anyone think she actually passed a test high enough to get promoted at any point in her career?

She was in my academy class and never did any police work. But that’s who the department wants as the boss. Only a fool would do anything above and beyond what they have to.

When she was CO of ERPS, she managed to fuck that up too. Not sure if she was in charge when all the sorts of evidence, especially drugs went missing. Not to worry, I'm sure she will live up to the stereotype and hit the medical.

If there is a God there has to be an audio recording of that great bit of stupidity?? Please God, please help us find that audio. That's up there w/ the CFD chief who ordered a 5-11 when he pulled up to the sears tower & saw smoke. Until he was told that the smoke was actually clouds! Or the senator who thought that a Marine base on one end of an island would cause the island to tip & roll over. You cannot fix stupid

Even non LEOs think she’s never passed any test except the dei tests or any other “congrats you have a low iq” test. Worse, she’ll probably never try to improve her brain functions because, after all, she’s a merit hire. It’s so obvious at the shitty of shitcago: the dumber the dei the higher the promotion. Gotta check the boxes.

If they were promoting incompetence, Lisa A. Starks should’ve gotten that spot. Merit Sgt out of 015 and all the way up since. All because of who she was married to. She’s tarnished his good name. Look up her award history. Look up her arrests. It’s shameful. And now the powers that be are afraid to get rid of her. She is so arrogant, She did not even show up to her first meeting at IAD. She knows she’s untouchable. And meanwhile, she’s been doing nothing but making things miserable in the area. She doesn’t take input from anybody. Took away the snack shop from her Detectives and moved the refrigerators, paid for by the Area, into her office and her Administrative Sgts office. All because her sidekick misappropriated $40,000. Can’t wait to see how her new admin SGT a.k.a. “the doctor” does. She couldn’t even last a month on the floor.

More like she studied a copy of the test with answers. Why do morons on this job insist upon defending useless individuals? Are you hoping for a spot or promotion based on an anonymous blog comment? Idiot. Or, is it about girl power? Can we get a total number of legit arrests and street time that all of these high ranking females have achieved? It’s probably a number that can be rounded down to zero.

He covered up for the cheating sgts at HQ. The NOBLE female merit sgts who were studying the test, not studying for the test, the actual test. Given to them by the SME and head of NOBLE. Eugene Williams. Ever wonder why Eugene so abruptly retired despite being the next possible sup? Barz, while in BIA, found no evidence of wrong doing, even the hard drive from the copy machine then 3 were using to make copies for the other brothers and sisters of NOBLE mysteriously disappeared. It is suspected that Barz has it as his ace in the hole. Another coincidence for Barz was, after he found no evidence of cheating, went from sgt to deputy chief in 4 years? Or was it 3? The statistical probability of the 3 female sgts, who had the CR pulled on them when another sgt observed them studying the test, could score in the top ten after scoring at the bottom of the sgt's test. Well, you can guess what that is. But take comfort in the fact that all 3 of the originally accused were all promoted to exempt ranks. So keep working hard, I'm sure it will get you noticed and promoted.

Are we surprised? A ghetto city deserves a ghetto police command structure. Take your OT money from this place and move on when you can. Treat this city and department as an ATM and take what you can. Remember low standards sometimes work in your favor, allows you to do less and get away with more. try to get promoted atleast once to pad your cash flow. I understand easier said than done with all the rampant cheating, but really focus on studying when you are sitting in the hole if your busy personal life doesnt allow it. Good luck to all. Try to walk away with something from this horrid job, hopefully your health and some cash. Last but not least, know when to pull the plug. Stop chasing OT under these terrible conditions to the point that it worsens your health. You can get something less stressfull away from policing and use your pension. anyone here after 25yrs, unless you have family responsibilities or dont have the age, is taking yrs off their life. No reason to stay after 25, unless you are an egomaniac and want that next merit promotion just to see your name in lights. I guess if you think that way, you are already a merit.

Speaking of the D-Unit. Why is it that the only individuals eligible for merit promotion are the Detective Family Liaison personnel, that doesn’t investigate cases? You got it. Family Liaison Detectives are being considered for merit sergeant promotion above the rest of the detectives that bust their butts each day. Just in case you’re aren’t aware, Family Liaisons Detectives are handpicked house mice within the D-Unit that reach out to other detectives’ complainants and inform them of available resources. They also host holiday parties for victims family members. They never make arrests or meet with ASA’s. So basically, they are and extension of CAPS.
