If $F:\Bbb R\to\Bbb R$ is continuous and has (finite) limits at $\pm\infty$ then $F$ is uniformly continuous.

You should concoct your own proof of this, starting with "let $\epsilon>0$". A sort of high-level proof, purposely chosen so as not to give you that proof you should be looking for: $F$ extends to a continuous function $F:[-\infty,\infty]\to\Bbb R$, and $[-\infty,\infty]$ is a compact metric space...
