Obviously you weren't at the meeting or you would have notices how many bosses were there. Turning on each other is exactly what the mayor wants. His classic strategy is to divide and conquer. We need every ounce of support we can get in our fight with the powers that be. Don't fall victim to his ways.

When I said 6 figure followers I meant those in HQ that are with the Chief everyday and get on the media to sell this BS for him. Yes, there are some Majors making 6 figures, they range from 94-100 thousand. The Majors know how to play the game to survive, which is keeping their mouth shut, still not impressive to me. A prime reason why the Chief made sure that we have no more Capt. positions, so he can promote from Lt. to Major and have complete power over them. He can knock them back down if they look at him funny or disagree with him. Goes to show what kind of chief this is, I would not want people working for me that are scared and just going to kiss my a$$ and tell me what I want to hear. Compstat pony show is a prime example of this. Ponies are really gonna be dancing around next meeting. You are only as good as your people make you and he should want the truth, however he is only concerned about the Mayor and doesn't want anyone to buck up on him. Usually the good ones never make it long and then Yellow puts them in time out, like Denham.

This was definitely not geared towards Lt.'s If you were there you saw many of them just as I did, they too are fed up and disgusted by this. All of my Lt.'s are turning their cars in too. Some of them which it is also not convenient for, but they too are taking a stand. This speaks volumes to me and is much respected and recognized by those they supervise. Remember, strength in numbers !!!!!! and we have many numbers......
