I just remembered lame slang that I used when I worked in customer service which constantly got me written up - we were allowed to say "okay", but discouraged from it and urged to say "all right" instead. Anything more slang than "okay" would get you written up and forced to talk with the manager while listening to your calls, which sucked.
The words in question were:
All righty
Okie dokie / Okie doke.
I have no idea why I always say these things on the phone. I never say them in person, I don't believe. On the phone, however, I'm an "okie dokie" machine.
