For most blue suiters, i'll bet that's true. I came to the conclusion years ago that no two peoples experience are the exact same. You can have two Airmen in the exact same AFSC, but walk away with entirely different experiences.
For example, i knew guys who had the same AFSC i did. 3E3X1. (Structural specalist - carpenter, mason, sheet metal fabricator and wielder all rolled into one). Within 4 years i had 3 different assignments, had been to five different countries for one reason or another, and had a crap ton of experience on projects ranging from Runway and Hanger construction, to building barracks and chowhalls, to revetment and RRR. Then id meet people of the same AFSC, and same rank that I had, who within the same 4 years, had only 1 assignment, had spent their entire enlistment on one base doing minor maintenance work, and had never been outside CONUS.
edit
There are folk in the AF who work for a living!
(I love the Project Manager, he clearly doesn't like answering stupid questions. lol )
