Means working hard whole day i.e. working non-stop while standing and do not even have any time to sit, chit-chat or have time to eat. Being busy whole day with lots of assignments to complete on time for something important.
or
someone who is only wanting to make money and work.
the phrase 'all work and no play' suits this person who is on his toes the whole day.
or
a mother who complains a lot after taking care of her own twin kids who are known to have ADHD, AUTISM, ETC. They keep her on her toes for the whole day running around or being hyperactive and doing things out of the ordinary.

You have so many right answers, so I thought I would give you a more realistic answer it simply means that 'you were kissing a taller person the whole day.' Much better than toiling the whole day, huh!
