Smelly night crew workers

Anyone else just have those people that work at their store that don’t shower or wash their clothes? There’s a handful of people at my store who either don’t care or are nose blind and can’t smell that they smell like body odor and raw onions. One person in particular on the night crew at my store literally smells the same way every day and just right now I went to put on a harness for the OP and the harness itself smelled like this person. This has to warrant some kind of complaint or health hazard if the smell transfers to anything they touch.

I’ve been working here for 2 1/2 years and pretty quickly in the beginning I was asked if I wanted to be a permanent opener for my department with weekends off. I had this consistently for the most part with a shift every now and then on a Saturday or Sunday. As of recently since mid March I haven’t really had any full weekends off with this past weekend really being the first one I’ve had in a while, but only cause I used vacation time. Not trying to come off like I’m complaining, but why offer opening during the week with weekends off and not stick to it? I have no problem working a weekend day either every now and then, but has anyone else had this happen? No management or SSA changes at my store so not sure if they’re following what the new schedule generates and making little changes to it.

I (28M) have been dating a woman (27F) for the past 3 months who I haven't really let anyone know about aside from family and close friends and it seems that other women co-workers have found out and it always feels like they bring her up when we have brief conversations at work. Out of respect for my partner I haven't really talked to these co-workers since I started dating her because she did mention that she gets jealous when I would bring up these co-workers. I would tell them about how great she is and some of the things we do. Not too much information, but just enough so they get the gist of what me and my partner do and I wanted to let my partner know that I'm excited to talk about her to people.

It seems like every single brief conversation now from my women co-workers is lead with "I feel like we haven't talked in a while you know since you got a girlfriend" or something along the lines of that. Also from one particular co-worker she told me that "any woman would be lucky to have a guy like you". Am I overthinking that these things being said could possibly allude to some kind of small crush or liking or jealousy from that co-worker? It would feel like a stretch if it was said once, but at this point they've said those things multiple times and I'm not sure why it would be said multiple times if she wasn't trying to get the point across that she did/does like me.

I'm also curious as to what are some more obvious signs that there is jealousy or crushing going on since i'm not very good at reading people and I think other behaviors during conversations or interactions could mean that stuff, but i'm not catching it.

Many times in the morning when I’m by myself I’ll have vendors come in needing a pallet or two down and everyone I can ask to spot me is either not there or busy. Are vendors allowed to escort and spot us to get said pallets down? I’ve seen some drive blue lifts so not sure why this would be an issue unless management explicitly says no.
