Can You Hear Me Now Guy Fired!

I loved these ads! I also loved being able to use that catch phrase "Can You Hear me Now" when people would call me!

Paul Marcarelli the actor that portrayed the Verizon Wireless Test Guy is being canned by Verizon Wireless after 10 years of being on the job. During his contract with Verizon Wireless according to sources he was not able to take any other advertising jobs. Paul said the early days were hard as teens would drive by his house in the middle of the night and yell "Can You Hear Me Now" even a family friend whispered that catch phrase at his grandmother's funeral as she was being lowered into the ground. How rude is that!? Marcarelli is working on a film called The Green. Good luck Paul!
