Not on one of my flights, but I had a co-worker who encountered this, and his FA's seriously contemplated saying something about needed to change the t-shirts, but in the end, did not. Personally, if I encountered this, I'm not sure what I would do, but I would probably be inclined ask them to change shirts/cover them up.

Tacky shirt, even if the message is true.

Why do they continue giving a company money if they don't like the services provided?
Sounds like Stockholm Syndrome to me.

Revoke their status if I was King of the world. I would also fix the wi-fi as well.
