Ethan Simmons and Caroline Thompson are co-workers at Zoominfo, but only met when they realized they both live in the Fenway. Now they take walks together regularly, with her dog, Winston.Erin Clark/Globe Staff
Caroline Thompson landed a new job as a social media manager last June and has yet to leave her bedroom. Sheâs never made the commute to Waltham in the car she bought for that purpose. Sheâs never been to the office at all, in fact, and has met only one of her co-workers in person â after recognizing the building outside his window during a Zoom call and realizing he lived in her neighborhood.
