What I would do...

1) Your future employer is not going to care what revision number you  
resume is.
2) There is no white space in the document
3) Fit you resume to the employer. For example, you said you didn't  
want a call center job... the why put Call Center Mgmt in your career  
summary
4) I wouldn't list all those skills under career summary. In my  
opinion, those aren't a summary of your career, they are your  
knowledge/skills.
5) I don't know if many people care if you know every single version  
of windows. Or, that you know how to use different types of  
spreadsheets.
6) Listing these skills doesn't say how good you are at them. Try,  
"extensive knowledge of css", or "5 years of JavaScript  
programming" (as long as they are true)
7) I wouldn't consider experience with FrontPage as a benefit
8) Change your work experience sentences into super action  
statements, try "Assisted 1000s of customers with server administration"
9) I wouldn't list what my degree was.
10) Don't list the degree that doesn't pertain to the job (Family  
Science), unless it does.
11) the sentences at the top of page 2 don't have bullets
