Hi, all,
    If you would be so kind, I would appreciate some "tweaking" with this resume.

      I don't like the look and sound of all that, but am at a loss as how best to describe those jobs. They were all customer service and problem-solving positions. From 1997 to 2001, even when I was working "formally," I was primary caretaker/business manager for my aging parents. How do I use that to my advantage?
        The years since 2001 are particularly difficult to describe. A critical eye would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
OITS
