Work history question

xiphiasSo: I'm thinking that the reason I didn't get the security guard postition I went out for is because the dates of employment I put down for myself were probably inaccurate, since I was doing it from memory. Since they verify employment history and all, if those dates were flaky, it wouldn't have looked good.
So I've been phoning up places I've worked to get the dates I was there, and getting things more accurate.
My work history looks even worse than I remember it. It's a couple months here and there, and really nothing else.
Now, I'm pretty sure that some of you reading this have done hiring.
If you were in HR, and someone had an incredibly spotty and fleeting work record, what would you want to hear from them to reassure you that they were someone you wanted to hire? How should I explain this, should I explain this, how do I make this less damaging to myself?
