Now. Let me give you some advice if you merely want to spruce yours up. Only put stuff on your resume that applies to the job you are going for. If you are coming to me to be a bank teller, I could care less if you worked at a preschool, seriously. If you must put it down because of lack of other jobs, make it relevant to what you are going after. Not to mention, avoid putting basic skills on your resume, everyone has them and it doesn't make you stick out. Putting stuff like win 98, word, etc. is a waste, and any moron should have those basic skills. In my opinion you are dumbing yourself down with those types of skills.
