John enough already my goodness so defensive take a step back and breathe.

As a former police officer you know damn well how promotions work.

If a Lieutenant retires that 1 promotion from being a private.

If a Captain retires that’s 2 promotions, one gets printed to Captain and one to fill the Lieutenant.

If a Battalion Chief retires that’s 3 promotions one till fill the Batallion Chief, one to fill the Captain and one to fill the Lieutenant.

Now the only Chiefs not in the Union are the Chief of Department and 2 Assistant Chiefs. These are filled by the mayors choosing and are not part of the union.

So let’s see approximate 30 guys have retired since 2016 so if you use my information from above you will see that 64 promotions aren’t that bad.

You already know this from being a police officer how the ranks work but you like to bust balls.

Also every rank is tested every 2 years. A new list is generated for each rank.

If you go tonight so be it I don’t really give a flying you know what.

As for who gets invited or who doesn’t the city council has always been invited to every swearing in ceremony so don’t let them BS you.

Some attend regularly some can’t be bothered so don’t fall for the special ones getting privilege over others.
