Today, I started a new job. Three of my Kenyan coworkers keep getting together and reminding me that having more than one wife is okay in their country. I've gotten 3 marriage proposals from married men so far. FML

I would tell you to run away, but no matter how far or fast you run, they'll probably still catch up to you.

Well, I'd be flattered if I were in your position. Though yeah go to HR about that.

Take it as a compliment and politely decline.

To all the people saying "take it as a compliment" I can only say this: Unwanted advances are not a compliment. They are a sign of disrespect and disregard for the humanity of the individual.

To quote a favorite author... "There is a difference between a compliment and a smarmy lip-smacking remark."

Sounds like they're just trying to mess with you because you're new. Apparently it's working. :)

At least they think you are desirable enough to marry.

Tell them they are not in their country, and that's not acceptable. Thanks, but no thanks. However take it as a compliment :)

I think that could be considered sexual harassment. I'd report it, even if it's flattering like everyone else is saying.

Remind them that harassment is not okay in your country!
