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.

Yes, that has been the case in my life experience, and I don’t think they would say “all” if they didn’t mean that. That’s why I have never told anyone anything along those lines.
