No. Is the shop prestigious enough you want to have it on your resume? If not, just leave it off and define that time as freelance. If yes, well, keep it and define that time as freelance.

No. Just leave with upmost class, grace, humbleness you can muster.

doesn't matter if you have a good reason to leave, or can at least make one up
