The casual phrase good enough for who it’s for suggests that something wasn’t done perfectly, but was done well enough. This saying is not all that common, but it’s been around for at least a century. Similar expressions used in the construction industry include looks good from my house and good enough for government work. In Italian, one might describe something done in a slapdash manner as fatto con i pieri or “done with the feet.” A similarly reassuring phrase: It’ll never be seen from a galloping horse. This is part of a complete episode.
