I WORK AT A HOTEL IN KY. I'VE BEEN THERE 30 YRS. 6 YRS AGO OUR VACATION WAS 120 HOURS STRAIGHT. YOU COULD TAKE IT ALL AT ONCE. NOW THEY CHANGED IT TO HALF BEFORE JUNE & THE OTHER HALF AFTER. CAN THEY DO THAT AFTER ALL THOSE YRS? MY FRIEND AT WORK SAID THAT IT'S A GIFT. I THOUGHT EVERY JOB GIVE ONE. WHAT KIND OF PEOPLE DO I WORK FOR?? :confused:

In the future, please turn off your caps lock. It makes your post very hard to read and is considered shouting on the Internet.

Employers do not have to offer paid vacation as a benefit at all, so the employer gets to control when and how it is taken. It sounds like you work for someone who doesn't want a particular employee out for 3 weeks straight so his workforce is not adversely affected. What your employer is doing is perfectly legal.
