Like a carpenter making chairs 

To become bored of a hobby or pastime once enjoyed, particularly because of it becoming part of a job or daily routine.

You spend enough time putting the hammer to people, you start to feel like a carpenter making chairs. Drains the fun right out of it.

it's like shuffling deck chairs on the titanic 

Actually means: actions taken solely for the feeling (or the appearance) of doing something about an unavoidable situation; actions that not only accomplish nothing but *blatantly* accomplish nothing.

"Oh, look, now GM is trying to fire Wagoner. It's like shuffling deck chairs on the Titanic."

musical chairs 

When within the remaining few minutes of the last period of a school day (specifically a highschool class) a student deliberately rattles his or her chair around to spark the process of the entire class picking up their things and leaving.

Usually a few students are reponsible for being the catalyst of the movement and it normally occurs durring the time when the teacher is giving instructions for homework or summarizing other important details about the days lecture.

Variations of musicial chairs include the zipping up of binders, slamming of books, or putting papers away.

Toby wanted to get out of class to smoke weed as soon as possible so he contributed a rattling chair solo to the class inducing multiple students to join into musical chairs.

Jamal was in need of an excuse to conveniently "not hear" the teachers instructions for the homework, so he violently dashed his binder zipper back and forth for several seconds.
