View Full Version : NEW FOP BOARD (All Topics regarding this merged to one)



12-20-2009, 01:48 AM
At a meeting not too long ago you asked about the budget. Scarola took you upstairs to look at the books. What did you find? What is it that you think they are doing? It takes money to run an organization. Travel for FOP business is a necessity. Travel to the National and State Conferences is necessary. Travel to Tallahassee is required to lobby for or against law/standards changes. A brand new person coming in to run the show would be a disaster without some experience coming up the ranks as a board member of the FOP. You cry, cry wolf, but you have no proof or issues to complain about. Have you ever been to trainng on pensions issues, bargaining issues, legal issues. Have you ever been to Health Trust, FIPO Pension Trust or 1% Meetings to learn something? You may, and I say may, be a good cop, but you are not prepared to respresent anyone in the FOP or the bargaining unit, at least not now and not with this attitude. Quit pumping yourself up with this nonsense.

12-20-2009, 02:22 AM
And the mysterious guest is??? I'm sorry but I can not comprehend what the big deal here is. Is Nestor asking for something really unreasonable. What's the big deal on his request. It looks to me like you guys are really becoming defensive about this. Why?

12-20-2009, 02:39 AM
A General Membership Mtg has business to discuss, not answer idiotic questions. Show up the day before the meeting and look at the books. Ask for an appointment to see the books, I did, did you? If the Membership doesn't trust the Board they can vote to replace them.

On his defense don't we have 3 sergeants assigned to the FOP full time receiving extra compensatory pay to learn about and handle those responsibilities. Is this a joke?

12-20-2009, 03:43 AM
Dear Nestor, you have seen the books and still say they are stealing, but where is the proof? You running for office already and you know what? Your not getting elected. You sucked up to the rookies with your "offer" to the commission, which everyone knew was a non issue. You giving hours to keep them, was an offer you and everyone else knew, was NOT going to be accepted. And the rest of the us know you for what you really are. What I wish for, is that some of those your slandering, SUE THE LIVING GARBAGE OUT OF YOUR INFESTED HEAD. POST YOUR PROOF ON HERE OR SHUT THE HELL UP. Or have the stones to say all your B S to those you accuse face to face. But you won't. Your dip master who's benefactors are NOW LTS. or retired. post your proof or shut up/ :D

I deleted all profane language mod and Javi.
I agree Javi does a great job for the most part...Only problem is that Javi doesn't want to run for FOP President at the end of next year! He wants to wait 3 more years to learn the job. My question is why don't we itemize the Offices expenses budget reports? Why do they call me insulting names for openly asking that question at the meetings and scream at me to shut the …. Up and sit down? Come on Javi response openly. You’re the Vice President now.

Hey mod 558 i liked that comment you made for those that don't understand 8th grade English: You sound like someone i know!

This is so true. You just don't step into a position where you are going to make decisions which may affect everyone or a position of "trust" without have any formal training or education. The individuals in these positions have many years of experience doing what they do, you just don't learn by asmosis. It is comendable that you show interest in serving the members but first get educated.

12-21-2009, 03:27 AM
A new FOP board is overdue, lets come up with new candidates for office next year..

12-21-2009, 04:04 AM
What formal training or education the fop mafia union have? Are you guys for real? Correct me if I am wrong but I’m under the assumption that if we have three full time Sergeants assigned to the Fop they are suppose to attend mandatory these health trust meetings, FIPO Pension Trust meetings and the 1% meetings to learn and inform us to what’s going on. Attending a few training classes on pensions issues, bargaining issues, and legal issues are not going to make you an expert. The union highest level of proficiency seems to be attacking its members for asking to many questions.

12-21-2009, 04:49 AM
Sounds like sour grapes from the old administration to me.
What is wrong with you people the FOP kicked azz and won. We now have a great administraion that works with the FOP and the members. They have resolved allmost every single outstanding grivence that was created by the abuses of the old administrtion.
I can't belive you want to go back to the dark ages. Insted of talking crap you guys should be thanking the FOP for winning the battle. This is the first time in the last seven years that I am actualy looking forward to going to work.

Thank you Armando, Carlos, Bill and the rest of the board for giving us hope and pride again. May God bless you all.

Whatever Nestor.

12-21-2009, 12:25 PM
Okay staff member, don't toot your own horn yet. The first problem will arise when the issue regarding the set aside raise reappear. Remember the 3%, or should I say 6% if you also include the raise we did not receive from 2008. The relationship will snowball after then. My point is, an administration and a union may see eye to eye with certain issues but a mix, they certainly are not.

Change was coming, the only thing the FOP did was support the Mayor like all the other unions did.

We are to blame, WE let these scams happen with OUR OWN MONEY!!! Get involved go to the meetings and ASK QUESSTIONS even if they threaten you............

12-21-2009, 10:06 PM
The new board should be.
President. T$
Vice President. BK
Secratary. Utset
Tresurer. Warshaw
Conductor. Nester

I agree!! 100% Is there anyone willing to run against the the current milkers????

12-21-2009, 10:53 PM
At a meeting not too long ago you asked about the budget. Scarola took you upstairs to look at the books. What did you find? What is it that you think they are doing? It takes money to run an organization. Travel for FOP business is a necessity. Travel to the National and State Conferences is necessary. Travel to Tallahassee is required to lobby for or against law/standards changes. A brand new person coming in to run the show would be a disaster without some experience coming up the ranks as a board member of the FOP. You cry, cry wolf, but you have no proof or issues to complain about. Have you ever been to trainng on pensions issues, bargaining issues, legal issues. Have you ever been to Health Trust, FIPO Pension Trust or 1% Meetings to learn something? You may, and I say may, be a good cop, but you are not prepared to respresent anyone in the FOP or the bargaining unit, at least not now and not with this attitude. Quit pumping yourself up with this nonsense.
This is so true. You just don't step into a position where you are going to make decisions which may affect everyone or a position of "trust" without have any formal training or education. The individuals in these positions have many years of experience doing what they do, you just don't learn by asmosis. It is comendable that you show interest in serving the members but first get educated.

So your saying lets keep having secret elections and keep the same people until they retire???? A firends and family union???

12-21-2009, 11:03 PM
As a union member I am asking why cant we just log on to a computer and vote for our union board??? Why do we have to deal with the strong arm tactics of a pencil paper and eraser walking around the station???? and the famous day after vote to destroy the votes. Why is that you ask a question at a meeting and get looked down upon? and the famous stare down, whats up with the BS ??

Its your money your career get involved, dont let others dictate your future

Be safe

12-21-2009, 11:35 PM
For starters put you name on this blog, stop calling people names and you will be taken more serious. Or option #2, go the FOP web page and write this request on the board so everyone cant take you serious. You dont want us to think that its Ernie, Nestor and company.

12-21-2009, 11:57 PM
Please indentify the computer program you want to use the is hacker free, auditable and acceptable to everyone. I'm sure there is a city, county, state or nation that uses one that you could recommend.

I HAVE THE RIGHT TO ASK THE QUESTION AND I RATHER NOT HAVE TO FIGHT WHEN I GET SOME LOW LIFE THREAT FOR POSTING A SIMPLE QUESTION. OR AM I SUPPOSE TO FEAR YOUR LARGE FONT COMMENTS SAPINGO

JUST A SIMPLE COMMENT

LETS HAVE FAIR ELECTIONS

12-22-2009, 01:42 AM
At a meeting not too long ago you asked about the budget. Scarola took you upstairs to look at the books. What did you find? What is it that you think they are doing? It takes money to run an organization. Travel for FOP business is a necessity. Travel to the National and State Conferences is necessary. Travel to Tallahassee is required to lobby for or against law/standards changes. A brand new person coming in to run the show would be a disaster without some experience coming up the ranks as a board member of the FOP. You cry, cry wolf, but you have no proof or issues to complain about. Have you ever been to trainng on pensions issues, bargaining issues, legal issues. Have you ever been to Health Trust, FIPO Pension Trust or 1% Meetings to learn something? You may, and I say may, be a good cop, but you are not prepared to respresent anyone in the FOP or the bargaining unit, at least not now and not with this attitude. Quit pumping yourself up with this nonsense.
This is so true. You just don't step into a position where you are going to make decisions which may affect everyone or a position of "trust" without have any formal training or education. The individuals in these positions have many years of experience doing what they do, you just don't learn by asmosis. It is comendable that you show interest in serving the members but first get educated.

So your saying lets keep having secret elections and keep the same people until they retire???? A firends and family union???


Nestor, behave. The votes are counted in the open in front of witnesses. You need help dude. You see boogiemen everywhere. And if you want everything out in the open, why not put your name on these insane post of yours?

12-22-2009, 01:44 AM
The new board should be.
President. T$
Vice President. BK
Secratary. Utset
Tresurer. Warshaw
Conductor. Nester

Hey dumb Axx it's Nestor!!!!!! :snicker: :snicker: :snicker:

12-22-2009, 02:30 AM
Everyone needs a new FOP board that will represent the entire body and not the select few.



I agree!! 100% Is there anyone willing to run against the the current milkers????
All new blood needed, willing to represent and respect every member.

12-22-2009, 02:50 AM
I guess I assume they are fair elections that we have had. You may not like the process or who is running, but why is it unfair.
Everyone gets a chance to vote. If it was an electronic election over the internet, would you say that it is flawles and fair? How would you know? I don't like Frank C., but I do like the current process.

12-22-2009, 05:56 AM
A new FOP board is overdue, lets come up with new candidates for office next year..
The current board should consider recruiting new members for the future, so we'll have some experience seated on the board.

I saw Nestor with aluminum foil on his head. He said that the FOP was trying to read his mind.

From experience you get cornered by certain FOP board members in the station as they stand over you watching who you choose They then count these " absentee ballots" than can be manipulated and then the following meeting they pass a vote to detroy the absentee ballots.

Please tell me besides afghanistan where would this process fly????

Why are the same people in the union for over a decade????

If you have a computerized system EVERYONE would vote

12-22-2009, 10:04 AM

12-22-2009, 11:35 AM
#1 I am not and have never been an Executive Board Member.

#2 Yes, I do attend the meetings most months and have for years.

#3 No, you will never see any form of computer voting, especially for the FOP.

#4 No, you will never get a bylaw change to change the way absentee voting is conducted.

# Yes, the same board will be there as long as they want to.

Whichever demoted arsehole your are, your trying to bring down the board which got rid of T$ and the B K, because your now a LT, be warned. Keep calling people thieves on here without proof, and your better have deep pockets. And if your the roid freak, your O T bought assets, except homestead) can be attached. Either present proof of your claims, or the liability your putting your asses and assets in, will make your demotion seem like a happy event. I for one. would love to see the nameless lying turds sued and getting a financial nightmare they can't even begin to comprehend. Scams? SHOW US THE PROOF! Show us proof and I will file a complaint with the SAO. Put up or shut up.

We respond because we cannot let these lies go on with saying something. If their are scams put up or shut up. You guys just want to rile things up. You have no proof. You want people to follow you so badly, but you would lead them nowhere.

You fail to see that they keep making broad accusations without providing direct evidence to prove anything. I want them to give us proof, then we can get rid of those doing wrong. Proof is very simple. The books are open to all. Get the proof. Like The the old lady in the wendy's ads, Where's the beef? Everything said about the lexus owner was based on factual things that happened. I just ask for PROOF of all these allegation. They are accusing people of "scaming" lodge funds, and if true, they need to be impeached, expelled from the lodge and prosecuted. Put up or shut up. Very simple concept.

The FOP did not get rid of Tmoney........Regalado did
