Travelling outside Thailand if you have Work Permit

[wasagabob]

I was reading the Nation and came across this article

http://www.nationmultimedia.com/opinion/Bamboozled-by-Bangkok-Immigration-30192874.html

I do not have a work permit but thought it might be of interest to those who are here with a work permit. I am not certain if this was just an upset lazy Immigration official or something that people should be aware of so .. forewarned is forearmed

It is written in the work permit. It must be carried on the person or be at the work place.
It is on the last page.

Immigration and work permit are two different things. You don't need a work permit to enter Thailand and I wonder why they asked. But when an officer ask, you should answer.

I travel often and NEVER have my work permit on me. It is always at the working place, unless I need to do something related to my work.

Bad story. The guy is married to a Thai, lives here for many years and have children...

I forgot to attach the scan of the last page...
