Crafting choice affecting drop rate?

So my wife and I have been playing GW since release, and now GW2 since betas. In GW 1 we’d be fairly even on drop rates for dyes, runes, etc. Now in GW2, things are different.

Both of our main characters are human rangers, same story, etc. though she’s managed to get ahead of me in levels. My ranger is Weaponsmith/Leatherworker, and hers is Chef/Jeweler.

Almost since GW2 Launch, my character(s) have gotten nearly 10-12 dye drops to my wife’s 1-2, including what she manages to craft as Chef. I get greens, yellows, browns, blues (4 rare blues unlocked already), and a few reds. She gets Browns, browns and browns.

TL;DR Can being a Chef and crafting dyes affect drop rate of dyes in the rest of the game?

Your choices in crafting do not affect your drop rates at all.
