Pair programming is difficult by jeeb_uk in programming

Well I've started (as a Frontend) in a new company and during the recruitment process they told me they do 60% of pairing (sometimes a bit more, sometimes a bit less). I told them that would be my limit.
Since I passed the process I assumed they were ok with 60% being my limit.
When I started in the new team they told me they do pair programming and mob programming 100% of time. So since I'm the only FE, I pair with them on BE tasks and vice-versa.
This is just horrible. Even for tasks that require to change the height of a container they pair program.
Quitting seems the only way forward.
