The time we have on Earth to spend with our loved ones is already too short; live life to the fullest, stay healthy, retire as early as you can, enjoy every moment with your family, friends and loved ones!
For all those Union Brothers and Sisters out there who have put off losing weight, or a trip to the Doctor for whatever the reason, "I'm not old enough to need that", " it doesn't bother me bad enough", "I don't have time", "I'll get over it eventually"...DON'T!
"Take Care of little problems before they become BIG PROBLEMS and always take care of the people and things that mean the most to you".

Mission Statement
We, the Utility Workers of America, believing it to be a natural, right and just that those who toil should enjoy to the fullest extent the wealth created by their labor; and realizing that under the ever changing industrial conditions and the enormous growth of corporations and other aggregations of capital. It is impossible for us to obtain
the full reward of our labor other than through united, industrial action; and believing that labor acting along economic and political lines can secure a more equitable distribution of the nation's wealth for all those performing useful service to society.
Therefore, we pledge ourselves to labor united on behalf of the principals herein set forth, to perpetuate our organization on the basis of friendship and justice to expound its objects and obey the laws laid down for its guidance and government, and always labor for its success, knowing as we do, that when we are united no reasonable demands that we may make can be denied us.
