Your boss did not give you vacation days. Your government/union did.
That's not strictly true. In the US there is in most states NO requirements for paid leave outside of a few protected types. But not vacation or sick. And we also are largely not unionized. We still have time off albeit MUCH less than Europeans and such.
Though I'd argue the norm of having any paid time off is a byproduct of labor/union battles in the past.
Where did they say they were from the US?
Nowhere, but they said it as though it was a universal truth and I provided an example to the contrary.
Guys, he's from the US.
