Exactly, don't ever trust what you're told during the recruitment aspect. I was stuck in the right seat for 6.5 years after being told a 2 year upgrade. If I was stuck at any other regional in the right seat for that amount of time, I wouldn't be flying anymore. FO pay here is still too low, but at least you can live off of it.
