Go to the bar with them and socialize some more, and keep working for now.

Glass is, as usual, correct.
Yep, as ever, I bestow upon Glass the expected +1
I'm gonna say we go with whatever Glass's idea is.

- Go to the bar with them and socialize some more, and keep working for now.

Starting an uprising is less eventful than you anticipated. But you suppose you have to put in the effort first?

The bar outing is an enjoyable experience in spite of, well, everything. You're pretty sure you can consider these people as friends (not terrifically close friends, though, and you doubt that'd change anytime soon on the current course of things). You don't drink any booze in the end as to save money and to avoid letting out information -- such as your ultimate plans -- that you wouldn't want others to know.
One of the haulers seems like he's about to go on a drunken tirade about the work he does yet, curiously, the others make a concerted attempt to quickly stop him before he begins.

Other than that, the week is quiet. More gruel and more sleeping but with a blanket this time.

You paid $10 this week for gruel to feed yourself. It's disgusting, but arguably filling.
You received $15 for your job at the harbor.
Overall, you made $5 profit this week.

You should really look to the wilderness for your stealth ideas, it has been doing it much longer than you have after all. Take squids for example, that ink trick works pretty well, and in water too! So you just sneak into the dam upsteam, dump several megatons of distressed squid into it, then break the dam. Boom, you suddenly have enough water-proof stealth for a whole city!

Talk to that hauler about what exactly he meant to say. Purchase some better food.

Damnit people, this is why I said to keep the truce. Because now everyone's ganging up on the cats.
Also, don't forget to contact your local Eldritch Being(s), so that they can help with our mission to destroy the universe.

Purchase some better food.

-1.

If we start buying more expensive food, then we'll start losing money every week.

Agreed, drop off the food. Maybe buy that basic tool set, though?

- Talk to hauler about what he tried to say and purchase better food.
- Befriend hauler more closely

You just barely stop yourself from purchasing better food. Gruel is awful for morale, but you gotta save money. You guess.

Befriending the hauler you noticed before proves a remarkably easy task. He's definitely not as satisfied with his work as the others, and feels like an outcast. The two of you manage to bond over that shared trait, and eventually you decide to ask him about what he was trying to say that night.
He insists that it's nothing. "Barely even remember it!" he exclaims. But you carefully push a bit harder and eventually he relents.

Turns out he wasn't happy with some of the more discrete shipments that harbor was making. He, like you, doesn't know what they're shipping exactly (though you presume it's nothing super suspicious like guns, as that'd probably be a tighter-controlled operation). But a while ago the man learned about it when he was effectively promoted. Probably as an attempt to build loyalty and groom him for future roles.
He's not tremendously happy with it. He gets paid more than you, but it's still a pathetic amount. And every day he's risking his life of not being imprisoned to do this. At any moment, he fears, the secret police could raid the entire operation. And it'll be people like "me and you" that will take the fall for it.

Eventually you part ways for the night. You talk with him some more for the rest of the week, and he definitely feels like the best friend you have at the moment. The two of you share a situation together. Between the illicit dealings of the harbor on one side, and the secret police on the other.

You paid $10 this week for gruel to feed yourself. It's disgusting, but arguably filling.
You received $15 for your job at the harbor.
Overall, you made $5 profit this week.

Purchase a Basic Tool Set along with a few Nails and a bit of Refined Lumber. Offer to patch up the hovels of a few of your impoverished neighbors, for a fairly low price. Continue to attend work and hang out with your new friend.
