LOS ANGELES — Dominic Green signed out of work as he always did, exactly at 4:30 p.m.
"Good afternoon everyone, my shift has ended," the 28-year-old emailed from his desk in the living room of his Los Angeles apartment on a winter Wednesday afternoon.
A remote contract worker, Dominic had never met any of his colleagues. A supervisor would later tell his father that she couldn't pick him out in a photo. "We really don't know people by anything except the work that they do," he remembered her saying.
