A resume is NOT a job listing. It is a collection of Relevant information pertaining to the job. I would have a section called "Relevant Job Skills" and put in there what you have learned in your various short-term jobs.
Put an objective that focuses on the job at hand.
Don't apologize for the short jobs... figure out what you learned in them... and make it a positive.

I'd start with schooling since if that is what is relevant. A lot of short term jobs are going to be irrelevant, especially if they are very short term or temporary. However try to leave out any significant gaps. Be sure to indicate you were always working or in school.

List on paper all the things you can do/have done. Use verbs.
Examples:
Cashiered and bagged groceries
Bartended 200 seat bar alone during Happy Hour.
Worked in school cafeteria while carrying full credit load at college.
You get the idea.
Put those verbs under the company names.

Depending on your age 5 yrs. If your over 35 10yrs I work in human resources I get this all the time. School can fill in your gaps or being a new parent.

relies upon. once you're utilising or a particular job then you certainly want a functional resume yet or you want a chronological or chrono-functional resume. on your case i could do a functional resume, with heavy concentration on your qualifications, accomplishments, and wisdom that are without delay related to the job for which you're utilising.

Instead of listing your jobs, list the experience you have under different skills.
