This isn't terrible advice at all. I was sacked from a job I did for two years due to 'gross misconduct' and have never put it on a single application. I just put down 'travelling' to cover that period. It has put me in a couple of situations where I've had to talk about my time spent in India (a place I've never actually set foot in) during interviews but 'travelling' is a great way of covering up for any sins of the past - plus it makes you seem a lot more adventurous and pro-active to potential employers.
