OK going home
Are these sentences correct:
1-Are you OK going home?
2-I am OK climbing up the ladder.
3-I am fine getting to work.
4-I am good getting to work.
I think they mean that the person is quite capable of doing what is mentioned, but I think they are colloquial and would be considered incorrect in formal English.
Gratefully,
Navi.

(A) and (B) do not seem viable. (C) and (D) definitely seem more tolerable, but I don't think I would go quite as far as saying that they sound "fine". "foolish/naive to believe" seems preferable.
