The Fun of Repeating Duty Stations

I still am a fan of the East coast rather than the West, but after you been to one station twice or more, you tend to lose interest in the fun of exploring a "new" world.
Granted there has been many road improvements since I was here last, but the same drama that was here before is still here. Not much has changed.
This includes that everyone always hates their current duty station and the last was always the best.
