Adding a data point to the list:
I got my first (Pfizer) vaccine shot on Tuesday (so, just over three days ago). The only significant hassle was that I had to drive 90 minutes to Mexico (MO) to get it.
Only noticeable side-effect was local muscular pain starting shortly after my workout later that evening. I still felt it a bit the next morning, but nothing significant.
I may have had a very, very, very slight headache, but only because I was looking for it. It was far below the threshold of being significant.
There was no wait at all, and from the time I parked my car to the time I was sitting down for the 15-minute post-shot safety wait, was 5 minutes max.
I was automatically signed up for the booster 3 weeks later, same bat-time, same bat-channel.
So, other than having to drive nearly halfway across the state to get it, everything worked out as well as one might hope.
Edit: The irony of my having to drive there to get the shot is that the key building-blocks of the Pfizer vaccine start at the Pfizer facility in Chesterfield MO, which I drive by (on the highway) just about every day. It starts here in MO, is then shipped to Andover MA, then finally to Kalamazoo MI where the finishing touches are applied and it's bottled for end-use.
