Turn out object, getting promoted (3,2)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

end up

'turn out' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'object getting promoted' is the wordplay.
'object' becomes 'end' (I've seen this in other clues**).
'getting' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'promoted' becomes 'up' (I've seen this in other clues).
'end'+'up'='END UP'

(Other definitions for end up that I've seen before include "Turn out" , "Arrive (after long process)" , "Eventually find oneself" , "finally arrive" , "on your head, maybe" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
