I love this job and yes, I am one of those who actually love this city. But I'm gone. This is the straw that broke the camels back. Teachers get 4% for a job in which they only work ten months out of the year and yet still receive a check. The alderscum whose job is a part time job vote themselves a 6% raise. Both of those jobs require that you work steady days, weekends and holidays off. The police who work every holiday, work around the clock (midnites) and are rarely home on holidays get 2%! Oh yeah, and Daley installs a police hating goof as the head of the Police and Fire Committe in another slap in our face. Time to go. Besides myself, I feel sorry for two groups of people. The new guys coming on the job and the citizens. Good luck to both of you. You will need it!Sgt.

The medical roles will fatten as coppers find new ways to prolong every service call. <br /><br />My Chicago police uniform has become an embarrassment for me to wear.<br /><br />My boss is an overpaid coward.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
