Agreed. Even if it was an attempt at humor, what is funny to one person, may not be to another. He should have stuck to simple, nicely put facts.

I believe it would be more appropriate for flight attendants to wear a picture identification badge that includes a clearly visible employee number.

As for the previous two quotes, I totally disagree. Do you wear a shirt with huge print that says your name and drivers license number on it? No, you don't, and you don't for a reason. That's also why none of us put our real names on this site, to avoid personal attacks by people who may disagree and have some ill intentions. Identities are increasingly easy to "thieve and plunder" these days. As for employees being able to easily change the name on their name tag, it would actually be VERY hard. Name tags are ordered using when the employee is hired using their LEGAL GIVEN NAME on their application and employee files. And when they need replacements, they are ENGRAVED using the same info. Unless you change your name, you can't change your name tag. Unless of course they are handwritten like they are at the local steak house, in which case would be enough of a deterrent for me to not fly that airline.
