Im hearing this month is going to be a small number. Hopefully thats not the case .

DT-Tres · Senior Member

Hopefully not. I do find it odd that keycapt has not posted any info. At this point I would be glad with any numbers. At least the list will move.

75 sgts for clearance, gotta wait for official numbers. 75 is smaller clearance then the usual 150. But have to wait and see to confirm. Stay positive.

Passit100 · Senior Member

Any number is good as long as the list keeps moving

Agreed. maybe key capt will post today the numbers . holiday promotion are usually larger classes. so very strange why only 75 clearance this month. I still believe there is a decent amount of vacancies left.

If 75 cleared , maybe only 50 this month but expect Jan/Feb/Mar to be bigger classes. Classes graduating from academy in Jan and Apr. Also lets see whats happening with 04 class and how many will retire at 20 years. Not many guys with time on have a burning desire to stay much past 20.

Horrible. So much for holiday promotions being bigger classes.

DT-Tres · Senior Member

Listen I know it sucks but life goes on. We had a good run with promotions, but don't expect to see that again. It's going to be an interesting time. If this is the plan for the holidays holy shit we are fucked man.

I'm really hoping for the best, i was not planning on doing an extra month here!

28approved · Veteran Member

Pretty discouraging but hopefully numbers can change. Anything is better then zero at this point. Vacancies are low for sgts right now i heard. But that will change come January with retirements coming along. Also remember with 21 LTs going in, makes 21 more sgt vacancies. Theyll play catchup later, hope for the best

Lionel22 · Senior Member

Things can always change . This dept is very unpredictable. Just remain positive Ill keep checking for you guys !

Passit100 · Senior Member

Damn well hey as many have said alot of retirements are coming next year and that includes a great deal of bosses Lt and Sgt included. Stay positive and keep ur faith in Christ! With Him all things are possible. God bless

Nyc507 · Veteran Member

Lionel any last minute changes or nothing ? Thanks

Lp · Veteran Member

This is all due to the SBA contract. They did the same thing in 2021. Canceled the December and January class to get the contract settled. February was a 200 sgt class. Sucks for those that were up next to get promoted because they will no longer go to top pay.

They had a class Dec 2021, Jan 2022 and Feb 2022.

Lp · Veteran Member

Go read the Sgt 2016 forum for dec 21 and January 22 and let me know how that goes. A little over 200 sgt got promoted Feb 7, 2022.

Broccoli · Veteran Member

That was the last classes from the list that doesn't compare.

Lp · Veteran Member

No it was not buddy. The last class from the 2016( really 2017) was on december 2022. But regardless, all this is speculation and trust me, i know what it feels like to be sitting there waiting for that finest message. I do want the contract to come soon for the SBA since i am one of those that got screw. However, i want everyone to have a good holiday season. Either by promotions or by contract. Stay safe out there!

Lionel22 · Senior Member

Sorry guys .. never like to put bad news but I like to be transparent on this forum. Lets hope next months is different . I will update once I hear anything . Until then enjoy the holidays dont down yourselves. And please more importantly take care of your mental health too many suicides lately .

Also one more thing sorry please be responsible. Do not drink and drive . If you and your spouse or whatever is getting into a heated argument walk away . One bad decision can ruin something you worked so hard to attain.

ChuckTaylor · Senior Member

The SBA made a bit of progress with the mediator this week, so its possible that a contract is imminent and thats the holdup. I have 13 years on and was in that February 2022 sergeant class and Im making 95k a year so its something that needs to be fixed even if it means the rest of the list gets screwed.

They had 4 classes in 2018.

-Two in June, about 50 each

-Another 50 in September

-And about 40 in November

Altogether they reached around the 200 list# in those 6 months

Ok, so there was no list for the first half of the year and then they promoted hard after that. Sound right?

Yea pretty much.

I took the Aug 2017 Lts test and the first class to go in from our list was June 2018. It wasn't that they didn't want to promote Lts, the department was waiting for the list to be established (established in May 2018). Altogether, it took DCAS 9 months to establish the list. We all know how quickly they work.

So the first 5 months of 2018 they didn't promote since they had no list to promote from. And like you said, they promoted hard until they caught up with the vacancies.
