English term or phrase: business has been pretty good
I can't think of a good rendition for this sentence (not colloquial, of course). There is a dialogue that goes like this:

A: Sure. I can't believe how busy it's been lately.
B: Yeah, business has been pretty good.

يعني الشغل زحمة الأيام دي
ماشي حاله جامد
most of the audience reading this will be mainly of Lebanese background.

thank you
