I'll let you in on a little secret. I've worked at 5 different companies over the past 2 years. On my resume, you'll see 2. Why do I do this? Those companies I was at for a month on short-term projects don't add any intrinsic value, aside from an additional term in my skill soup, if that. What should I say, I picked up a short term gig to pay the bills? Isn't that why we work in the first place? It's less awkward in interviews, as I don't have to explain the employment gap or what made me leave XYZ Corp. The resume is a sales flyer. You don't get the full story. You get just enough information to get you interested enough to come in to the showroom to check the car out in person, maybe take it for a test drive.
