Getting mine in 10 minutes, offered thru work.
Typically no adverse reactions other than a sore arm for 24 hrs... I do it pretty much every year if it's offered close to work, else I'm too lazy.

Mine is offered at work, haven't been doing it. I think I did it once 5 years ago, but that was so I can get away from my desk for 30 minutes. How is your arm sore after a flu shot? 
Had mine 2 wks ago through work (hospital). But did mine for chocolates

Fucking arm is a bit numb. Bitch jabbed me while I was folding up the shirt, and I pretty much ended up oozing and squirting some blood. FML.

got mine done a couple of weeks ago.
getting my kid stabbed with it on the 28th (she had 2 boosters on her annual check up -- i asked the doc if he can just give her the 3rd too he gave me that look; so i booked a follow up appointment  ); she's a tough cookie, didn't cry at all during her shot, teared up just a bit but quickly went back to smiley mode.

^ Whatever germs the kids bring home is just plain deadly. One year, the kid was sick for 2 weeks and took down my wife; mom,bro&sis in law.
Last year I was sick for 2-3 weeks and I've never been sick that long.
Flu shots are a must.

A current flu shot really only protects from a past flu strain, not a current one, so you can still get sick.
