OceanGate's former finance director said she quit when Stockton Rush asked her to be the Titanic submersible's chief pilot after firing the original one for raising safety issues
by Matthew Loh
Soon after Lochridge was fired, Rush asked the finance director to fill in for the pilot, she told Taub.
"It freaked me out that he would want me to be head pilot, since my background is in accounting," she told the New Yorker.
She said she "did not trust" Rush because Lochridge was no longer working at OceanGate and quit her job as soon as she found a new role elsewhere, Taub reported.
The former director added that some of OceanGate's engineers were teenagers when they worked for the company, while others were in their early twenties, the New Yorker reported.
