The man, who Sherryn later found out was named Barry, had moved to Melbourne from Perth after being offered a job.

Barry's sign read:

"Hi I'm from Perth W.A, I've been here three weeks looking for work. I've tried so hard to get work. I have my HR truck driving licence and have done lots of driving. I will do anything. Even clean toilets.

I am now homeless I just want to make a new life so if anybody can help it would be great.

Just give me a go please."

Wanting to help in whatever little way she could, she shared a picture of him holding his sign asking for work to Facebook.
