Apologize

Sucking up all of your dignity, you decide to ignore Amelia and however she'll react and deal with the problem at hand, and just apologize.

"I'm sorry, sir," you say, looking at the floor for added effect. "I was being stubborn, because I'm still new here and all, and I didn't want to be pushed around..."

Strickland grabs your chin, and lifts your head so your eyes are looking directly at his. "Hey. Don't be sad. It's your first day; everyone makes mistakes on their first day! But," he says, letting you go, "you still need punished." Dammit, your plan didn't work...

Mr. Strickland thinks for a moment, and then snaps his fingers. "Your uniform may not be in yet, but we do have some panties in the lost and found!" How...? "Exchange your boxers for those."
