Just seeing this. Congrats guys! Welcome and wish you all safe and successful careers. Have fun in the academy.

[southpaw1]

Oh okay. Nice.

[southpaw1]

I would hope so. It's a matter of time! Also for the really late NTRs its possible to do another orientation. Someone mentioned this was the biggest class in a while so maybe that's the delay and remember not everyone is on here so I'm sure people are getting notified. No news is good news! I miss the...

I have seen it! Lol. People getting last minute notice and scrambling to get everything done before the academy. It makes for an interesting story. I remember running around like a crazy person trying to get everything in order. I think they get a kick out of it or something like lets see who really...

Yeah I agree 508NAVY but when there is no video people's imaginations run wild and that lack of transparency has set off unrest.

[southpaw1]

Hang in there. Good luck! Hopefully you hear something soon.

[southpaw1]

Almost there. Good luck!

[southpaw1]

I'm going to make a prediction that you guys start getting NTRs for the academy as early as this afternoon. Let me know if it comes true. Lol. I swear I have no other info other than upcoming orientation and academy. I have work in a few hours so keep us posted!

I couldn't agree more that BWCs (body worn cameras) are very important. There needs to be a LIve PD Chicago too so people could really see the absolute chaos in this city everyday.

[southpaw1]

Chicago60631 I agree. I've heard the same. I just don't understand why that's not happening already. Hopefully that is something that is considered in the near future.

So apparently there are people that left and had a change of heart and actually are trying to come back to CPD and they are being told that they have to redo a 6+ academy. They already lost their seniority and we really need the help and people with the time and experience are willing to return. Please...

Here scroll up through this since no one wants to properly report what's really going on here. Last night downtown mass arrest situation for hours, multiple shootings, gun arrests, foot pursuits.

Yeah I definitely hear you on that. Trust me I don't have anything close to that. I'm just a regular blue collar beat cop on the streets answering jobs and I'm cool with that for now....

[southpaw1]

You're not lying. We definitely complain but I like some of the freedoms here compared to what I hear in the suburbs. You put up with a lot but some of those benefits are great if you need them and If we don't like it we could bid to 22 different districts, multiple units, etc. The opportunities are...

[southpaw1]

I've seen it in at least a few lateral ads but as far as enforcement no clue on that.

[southpaw1]

Everyone looking solid today including the recruits at the St. Jude's Police Memorial Parade downtown this morning. I was there super early today so just wanted to say good job everyone.

[southpaw1]

Oh okay nice. Making progress!

[southpaw1]

Some suburbs also have you sign a 2 or 3 year contract to stay there otherwise you're on the hook for training/equipment expenses....

[southpaw1]

You guys end up running inside or outside? How did it go? Turnout, etc....
