The previous post was absolutely correct Lynn was a wonderful manager, who actually cared about her tenants and was so pleasant to work with. However, Lynn is no longer working as the manager of Westridge apartments. She was replaced by an arrogant jerk who obviously despises his job and intends only to make life hell for his tenants. I have also lived at Westridge for three years, and up until this week have never had a complaint. During Lynn s management she was very courteous and helpful to her tenants, I once forgot my keys and needed to be let into my apartment, she did this without hesitation. Last week I had my car back in fargo to have some work done and accidently forgot to place my apartment keys on my loner car. On Friday I realized this mistake and based on the last episode with Lynn I thought there would be no problem with having the manager let me in. I made sure I left work early to catch him at the office. To my surprise the office was closed and I had no way of getting into my apartment. When I called the office line I was transferred to a very rude on-site manager who lectured me on not having my keys and not having a roommate to let me in. She abruptly hung up on me and said she would have someone over there. I waited there for this woman to arrive who upon finding me continued to lecture me that they would be charging me $25 dollars the next time this happened. I thanked her for letting me in and thought that would be the end of it. Until Wednesday when I received a call from Greg, the new manager, who said he had some things to talk to me about. I rearranged my schedule to meet him back at the office, and upon arriving I was immediately lectured by him about forgetting my keys and the fact that I would be charged $25 the next time this happened. He also lectured me about being rude to this woman. When I responded that it was actually her that was not treating me so kindly he of course didn t believe me and tried to substantiate this claim by saying no one has ever complained about her and she deals with 164 units a day. So I must have been the one that was rude and unpleasant. He continued to lecture me that letting people into their units is not their job and this is why people should have extra keys . Needless to say I am not very impressed by my first meeting with this new manager and after being treated this way it is my full intent to move out in May when I am finished with school. I was planning on staying at my apartment and living there for several more years to come but after this incident I WILL NOT voluntarily subject myself to this treatment.

Since I've had a chance to deal with this manager I will vouch for the validity of this review and add that as a resident of this apartment I have been severely mistreated on larger issues than lost keys on several occasions. This man has no respect for the people that live in West Ridge and I would not trust him to manage a doll house.

I absolutely agree with both posters regarding Greg, the newest complex manager. Lynn was the complex manager when I first moved into West Ridge (June 2008), and I loved her. She was always as nice as could be, friendly, and always willing to help. However, Greg is very arrogant, not friendly at all, and always seems put out if you ask him for help for anything. The issue I've had is something as small as receiving packages. Greg always seems put out anytime you ask him if he will be in the office to pick up packages. And you have to be careful because the office is rarely open after 4:00 during the week.

Definitley agree. Rude, arrogant, and unfriendly are all words that describe this manager. Never have I been treated with so much disrespect.
