Nope we can't do it at Deloitte . It has to be cleared. Some projects allow you add the clients email addresses to skype for business at Deloitte but it has to go through a process. And we definitely are not allowed to talk to 'our friends' in other firms

Yeah I have been pinging my friends at other company since I got skype without issue...not all other companies allow it though so you just have to try and see

So federated servers means that ITS has approved traffic passing from out Skype to their servers. A lot of our clients have been approved, so I've been able to use it in the past

@D2: What does that mean?

HNY all! I have multiple rollover and traditional IRAs, as well as a solo 401k. But (since I started paying attention to this kind of thing) have always been over the income limit to start a Roth IRA. I’ve also not done much contributing in the last few years due to purchasing an apartment and saving for renovations. Cue pandemic joblessness... if married filing separately, would you say it’s a good idea to start a Roth while under the income limit, even in this climate? Any reason not to?

Recently started a new project, everyone’s remote, handful know each other, most know no one. Few newer hires. I want to set-up some kind of laid back happy-hour w/out work but I’m failing to find a way to make that happen with 10ish people and I am trying to avoid the mandatory fun vibe. I’d like to get to know these folks, and welcome in the newer ones, but I’m not sure how to proceed(without it being kind of lame).
