get one's fill

Have enough finally

To get one's fill is to have enough of something—often more than enough.

The phrase comes from eating until satisfied, but extends to any experience: I got my fill of drama working in that office.

It frequently implies having had too much: After three hours of his complaints, I'd gotten my fill.
