To get a 'talking to', a
reprimand from someone in authority. Generally a vocal and loud display of anger where many people notice and the humiliation of being with the other person in public hurts as much as the the content of their
tirade. To experience a display of dominance, for doing something outside of given
guidelines. Being bitched out can also occur in private, domestic or corporate, situations.
"Jane got
bitched out at the office today for not completing all her tasks. Was she ever
pissed off at her computer!"
