Looks like it was copied from a million other resumes.

While I might not get hired I am willing to bet my resume would ne noticed more than yours. And my resume, unlike yours, would not hit the trash can but be passed around the office for everyone to read.

Summary of Qualifications:

Very poor verbal, writing and interpersonal skills. Can not relate easily at levels of the decision making process and related aspects of business operations. I am stupid but I will tell you I know how to do stuff when I don't have a clue if that's what makes you happy. I'll use some big words so I sound impressive.
I'm not a visionary and lack any ability to understand how daily operations shape results and goals. Don't bother me with details.
Not a team player, not result oriented, slow to non learner, sullen, quiet, uncommunicative and uncooperative to the extreme
Unable to adapt to new concepts and responsibilities.
Lazy and un-motivated but I am able to set sleep and nap times if I can find a quiet corner to hide in. Good at computer can score very high in space alien invasion.
I am not trying to be all nasty and mean but You Must Break Most Rules About Resume Writing

I gave you what my employer charges 250-500$ for. Read it instead of ignoring it. You got a laundry list of ideas here but the work is up to you. Think about it. Write it down. Start all over. Until it sounds right.

Quick Commentary

OP, I made some things up, but I tried to do a quick edit of the wordy entries and add some things that will enhance your resume. Obviously, if you aren't in school, you won't have that section, but it looks at lot better if you can take at least one class.

Volunteer work may or may not help in your community, but here it's a selling point, especially if you do volunteer at "causes" which the employer sponsors. You don't have to continue after you are employed.

Try to make your resume fit one page only. Edit your experience so you are mostly adding details that will enhance getting the job you seek. That's why I edited the other sections. You may want to re-add stuff.

CHANGE your resume for each position. Change your objective: Loss Prevention at Walmart, posting (12356), for example.

Hope that helps a little. You'll be applying online (at the company) for a lot of the positions in that field.

Lastly, at your level, the best job objective is the name of the position you are seeking and vary that from resume to resume.

Later, if you get a 4-year degree, you can have a more advanced job objective, and it will then be a Career Objective.

Make sense?

summary of qualifications is unnecessary, especially when you do not have specialized skills. i would take that out or at least the first half of it which tells someone nothing and move the computer skills to the end of your resume.
