Mine is waiting for ElasticSearch reindex after changing one number to see actual difference in fuzzy-matched search results. 7 minutes is a long time when you need to do it multiple times a day. (While I am typing this, ElasticSearch is reindexing - again)

Also, coffee machine is too far away.

Yes, reindexing ES is a pain in the ass. While it is reindexing, I constantly stare at the screen asking myself "Why the f* do you have to reindex, I just added a field to the mapping you f* piece of sh* moronic database".
