Delete the useless stuff full of adjectives that don't mean anything, go to standard font size and standard margins. If you still don't have room for one line I'd be amazed. As it is with 11-point font and wall to wall text, absolutely no one is going to read it anyway.
Nobody is going to care about much more than that. The jobs are good for showing work ethic and consistency.
For a 6 month internship there can't be much to include. I don't want to know about the minutiae of the job, just the big picture. This should be done in 2-3 bullet points, max.
I was debating on adding it back on because it shows loyalty? I know overall, I think I'm okay because majority of the positions are internships, but I keep second guessing it.

Yea. I don't go that in depth with it on my resume. I just put things like:
Deliver excellent customer service
Achieved credit/reward goals of _____
It's all puffery. Include it if you need filler. You don't, so drop it and stick with company, time employed, location, and title with one general bullet point describing the job.

Yea I was just afraid to make them too task-based. Will definitely try the 1 bullet route

For most of your jobs, I think you can skip the above fluffy duties/achievements.
Focus on your internships, especially if you were able to get some good work experience.
I'd include your other jobs, but without elaboration. The retail job you held for 5 years shows commitment and longevity. And since it looked like you worked your way through college, that's something a lot of employers and hiring managers like to see.
