Working like the dickens

(simile) -- Means working hard on everything BUT your own job.

Kevin has been working like the dickens lately. He has picked up a nasty addiction to cribbage and fishing but continues to suffer with his own job performance.

Bored as the Dickens

When one uses the phrase bored as the Dickens, they are describing what it's like to be so bored that you are bored enough to write a bunch of famous fictional novels.

Person 1(the jester):"Hey you there are you bored too? What shall we do?"
Person 2 (the very bored very pretentious Prince):"Yes I'm very bored, bored as the Dickens. Charles Dickens that is..."
1:"GEEZ MAN! Now that's bored! What do you suppose we do about it?"
2: "I dunno cuz I'm not quite creative enough to write a bunch of novels about Christmas and ish..."
Long pause...
2: "Dont just stand there staring at me! I order you to start singing and dancing! and tell me a story in your songs too damnit!"
