Out of work and willing to relocate? McDonald's is advertising for an assistant manager for its sole franchise in Cuba - serving burgers and fries to detainees at Guantanamo Bay.
The help wanted ad popped up recently at the McVirginia.com careers web site featuring the Golden Arches, a headline "Find a Career (at) McDonald's" and this enticement: "Enjoy the perks."
It didn't specify salary but said, "Candidates must have restaurant management experience, possess a valid United States passport and be willing to relocate to Cuba."
Customers include at last count 215 war-on-terror captives and their guards.
In one noteworthy omission, the ad does not mention Guantanamo by name.
"The job listing states this restaurant is located on the United States Naval base in Cuba, which is where this restaurant is located," the ad said.
A spokeswoman would not say how many had applied.

I just got back from Cuba and what a great country. I wouldn't hesitate to go back and work at McD's. IF it was paying the same as it was in the US then great! Everybody gets paid the same in Cuba so I'd be on more than a Doctor if I worked there! Plus the weather is great and it's the home of the Mojito.
Mcdonalds is doing this so they can get their served numbers up, its a stategic move cuz these detainees have to eat the food everyday
Forget water-boarding! Being made to eat McD's - that qualify as the worst form of cruel and unusual punishment known to man!!!
I thought torture wasn't allowed at Guantanamo?? So the war on terror is moving in to a new phase; slow death of captives....
Heheh yeah i do that for a laugh
