This isn't necessarily corporate jargon, but I'm continuing to hear people ask "RIGHT?" when speaking. And not necessarily always at the end of a sentence.

"So we're going to create this file, RIGHT?, and on that file, RIGHT?, we'll get the necessary data points, RIGHT?, to finish the project, RIGHT?"

At first I thought it was just my company, but I'm hearing this with several people at a new job, I also see/hear it on TV when watching people speak, typically from Corporate America....I mean, it's *EVERYWHERE* now!!! I would liken this to a nervous tick or a form of Tourette's. It is so odd to me that people will hear something and literally copy it into their own, personal vernacular.
