Realistically What Number Will They Get To?

The beginning of this list started off hot with large classes but those days seem to be over. With retirements and the shortage of sgts a class Larger than 35 seems like a surprise nowaday. Realistically what number do you think theyll get to?

These are the numbers I calculated for the Sgt's list should help you figure out your probability.

Its really going to boil down to how many people retire. Its impossible to figure out until after FIFA. Mid to end of July is the mass exodus of the 2006 class. I work in a unit where theres not much turnover and there are 3 Lts leaving as of the next few weeks . Those are 3 Lts that need to be replaced by 3 Sgts. That will be the formula going forward. Once the dust settles we will figure things out. Please everyone do not lose hope. Have a little faith. 

Depending on the NYPD picking up the promotions in coming months , you may see the list move a little quicker . Mark my words, the outgoing class of 2006 will rapidly deplete the upper executive population and force the NYPD to start hiring more cops that need supervision and all will be well .

How accurate are the force figures on the intranet? According to those numbers, Sgt is steadily declining and has been even with the monthly promotions. According to that there are also about 900 Sgts eligible to retire. But when I look at all the figures something seems wrong. It also says PO numbers at up.

A lot of these numbers will change due to 1) Those on terminal , 2) Those who are not concerned with overtime and have a ton of chart time built up. Again we are going to see alot of bosses leave after summer. once FIFA done and after US Open , I have a feeling overtime will dwindle forcing alot of people to 1PP. If those 900 bosses are in fact retiring , they are forcing the NYPDs hand. A lot of Pcts will ask for bosses to fill the void but 1PP notorious for saying Make do with what you have , thus almost all Pcts working under staffed and over worked. 

I just looked and 125 Sgts and 60 Lts are on Terminal .
