I'm a former cast member, can confirm. During Traditions (company culture and job orientation/training), they're taught to point with two fingers for exactly the reason you point out, and Walt Disney is shown pointing like that in the slides. They don't tell you, but most people eventually figure out, that there's a cigarette photoshopped out of his fingers.

Traditions! That's what it's called! Couldn't for the life of me remember.

Where'd you work? I was a monorail pilot down in Orlando.

I was in DAK Dinoland attractions for a while and then I worked in merchandise for a few years in the same park. A friend of mine was a monorail pilot around 2008 or so. Were you in the college program?

College program in 06, seasonal transportation car member for two years after that.
