Disney bans employees from using their index fingers while at work, it is claimed.

If you work at amusement park, there are certain perks – revelling in the magic of Disney is one.

However, with great jobs comes great responsibility and as such all Disney employees must obey certain rules.

One of which involves never pointing with your index finger.

Staff are told to point using two fingers at all times.

According to Indy100, the reason behind this strange rule is because Disney decided that pointing with one finger could be misconstrued as aggressive and even offensive in certain countries.

So in order to keep all of its guests happy, Disney banned one-finger pointing.

Alongside the pointing rule, staff are not allowed to speak to guests in an aggressive manner which seems fair.

Although we wager one or two park visitors have put that rule to the test before.

The Standard has contacted Disney for further comment.
