A couple of critiques...

- You say you have good written communication...if that's the case then you should be detail-oriented not detailed-oriented. First rule of resume writing is go through it with a fine tooth comb for common little mistakes like this. Have someone else go through it with a fine tooth comb as well.

- You have an extra comma after Abacus Law (See above)

- What degree did you get from Middlesex County College? I would put that in there.

- I would take out this sentence "Ability to be on time with a good attendance record." or at least modify it to say something to the effect of "Perfect attendance record". In any job it is assumed that you'll be on time and not miss work.

- I would highlight your customer service record / skills as you put it. If I was interviewing you I would ask you to give me an example of a time when you demonstrated these excellent customer service skills.

- If I were you I would probably leave out some of the really short stints. As it is now it looks like you can't hold a job for more than a few months (Red flag to a potential employer)

You can't erase or undo any stupid/personal thing you put up on internet! I have told this to my nieces and nephews many times. I am not saying putting up your resume on this site is stupid thing. I am just saying in this day and age of internet fraud and scams I would be more careful where I put my personal informations. I know quick search on internet can pull up all your information and more but I still think it's very risky thing to do to just put it up like this.

Just my $0.02

You can also get a lucky break by doing something a little different or daft just at the right time, someone is looking for exactly that kind of spirit or determination/desperation.

The short stints I noticed too......as an employer this is a big red flag for me. Maybe put 'temporary jobs' and lump them together in one time period, or something like that.

When I read the descriptions of the jobs you've done, it unfortunately sounds more like you've been a driver/janitor/administrative assistant/gofer. Sometimes less information is more attractive ex. instead of "saying keeping an area clean", you might say "responsible for ensuring the optimal presentation of goods" or something like that.

And if you want to impress, consider presenting your resume in both languages as you mention you're bilingual.
