Definition of "bollocking"

" […] He told me what to expect, he didn't wrap me in cotton wool, and was always a great guide who treated me the same as everybody else, which is really what I needed. He didn't treat me any differently from the male managers in his team. I got a bollocking the same way everyone else did!"
