When they tell you at work or at school to give it your all, do they mean to do something until you burn out or collapse of exhaustion? Because that seems to be the trope in all movies and shows.

Plenty of employers (in non-union/creative/competitive industries/in-demand roles) push employees to burn out. Doesn’t matter if you burn out you couldn’t hack it, just get the next body in.
