1. Your Objective says nothing.  A good Objective will state what kind of position you want.  I suggest

Objective  A position in Retail Sales

2. You're looking for a job after two months.  Your previous two positions lasted three or four months each.  What's the story?

3. Remove that bit about being willing to do anything to make the customer happy.  Not professional and, maybe it's just my dirty mind, but I thought it had a sexual undertone.

4. Can you recall any commendations you received, or awards?

5. Bluntly, the impression I get is someone who does low level work and does what she's told.  Idealy, a resume whould show initiative and a goal in mind.  What is your career goal?
