Article: If you see the cat being attacked by the dog, you must act quickly to break up the fight. Keep your own safety in mind as you do thisthe dog may end up injuring you, too. If you have a leash (or are near your home where you can run quickly and get one), approach the dog quietly and wrap the leash around his back end. Aim for an area close to his hips. Thread the free end of the leash through the leash's handle and pull back forcefully to make the leash taut around the dog's body. Back the dog away from the cat and tie the leash to the nearest sturdy structure, such as a telephone pole. Be mindful that the dog will still be in 'fight' mode. If you are uncomfortable breaking up the fight on your own, find someone nearby who can assist you. Check the dog's collar for an ID tag. If you see the owner's information, contact the owner to come get the dog. If you don't see identification, call your local animal control. An injured cat is likely to lash out due to intense pain. In addition, she is probably extremely frightened. Approaching her carefully may lessen the likelihood of her biting or scratching you. Keep calm as you approach the cat. The cat is frightened enough from the attack. If you seem anxious or fearful, she may notice those feelings and become even more frightened. Talking to the cat in a low and soothing voice may help her see you as non-threatening. Once you are able to approach the cat and get a general idea of her injuries, call your veterinarian. When you call, provide as many details about the situation, such as the location of the attack, a physical description of the dog, and visible injuries on the cat. Be aware that the cat may have suffered internal injuries that would not be readily apparent. Calling the veterinarian will give the veterinary team a good idea of the cat's injuries, allowing them to prepare for your arrival accordingly. The veterinary team can also give you instruction on giving the cat first aid and transporting her safely to the veterinary hospital.

Separate the dog from the cat. Approach the cat with caution. Call your veterinarian.
Article: Once you've had some experience managing a youth team, apply to high schools, colleges, or amateur leagues in your area to see if they have any positions available. Make sure that you have the necessary certifications before applying to these positions by contacting the school or league and seeing what they require. Some of these positions are unpaid, but managing a mid-level team is often a part-time job anyway. Work with a mid-level team for 1-2 years before you try to move up to a minor or professional league. Most major soccer leagues, like the English Premier League, Serie A, and Major Soccer League, have minor leagues where players get experience and prepare for professional play. Send a resume, portfolio of certifications, and cover letter to every club that you'd be willing to work at. Many of these clubs don't publically post openings, so it's a good idea to keep your information available to these clubs, even if they aren't looking for managers at the moment. Be resilient and don't take rejection too hard. This is the hardest step in your journey to becoming a professional coach, so don't get upset if this takes a while. Customize your cover letter for each individual position. In your cover letter, express interest in any managerial positions that are available. Unless you have a lot of experience, it's unlikely that you will be offered a job as a head manager right away. Most of the early openings that you get job offers for are going to be for low-level assistant positions. It's better to get your foot in the door at a professional club than it is to hold out for a higher position in management. Once you are hired, establish yourself as reliable, smart, and dependable by showing up on time and completing your responsibilities. It may be years before you work your way up to a position as a head manager. It is easier to find work in management with teams that have struggled in recent years. Consider applying to the lower-performing teams last to test the market and see if you can get into a better club. Once you've gotten your foot in the door at a minor league club, work hard and establish yourself as a reliable component of the club's management staff. Show up to any optional professional development opportunities and build positive relationships with the players and other members of the coaching staff. It may be 5-10 years before you're offered a head coaching position. It will be easier to get a professional offer if you can get into a head management position with your minor league club. While you're working with your minor league team, apply for any head manager positions with professional teams that you hear about. Continue sending your resume, portfolio, and cover letter to professional clubs to get your name out there. As you continue to work in the minor leagues, network by introducing yourself to premier management staff that you come across. It is extremely difficult to find a head management position with a professional football club, and it may be decades before a club gives you a shot. Enjoy your time working in lower-level management positions to stay positive, and never give up on your management aspirations. With enough hard work and a little luck, you may become a professional manager!

Article: One tried and true approach to dealing with racists is not dealing with them. Don't give the person any of more of your attention. Keep walking, working, or doing whatever you were doing. They'll get the message. While some people make racist remarks simply out of ignorance, others do so out of hatred. If at any time you don't feel safe around a racist, ignoring them is the best bet. Don't say anything. Get yourself to a safe place where others are present, such as a restaurant or public building. If a racial remark happens at your school or work, you can tell someone in charge. This ensures that others in authority are aware of potential racists. It also helps you create a record of the incident in case there are issues in the future. You might go to a teacher, guidance counselor, or supervisor and say, "I was called a racist name and I'd like to report it." Tell the person, in detail, what happened. Keep in mind that they may not do anything about the initial incident. But, be sure to report any further incidences to them. If they don't act, reach out to someone else in charge, such as their supervisor. If the person who called you a racist name is someone in authority (such as an employer, business owner, or teacher), you may need to take legal action due to discrimination.

Ignore them and their comment. Get to a safe place. Report them to a superior. Know when to take legal action.
