ORIGINAL POSTER

Has anyone been recently granted a W-P without having to leave the country? I have someone ready to hire me but apparently there's a only slim chance that the government agency contractor will waive the visa run requirement.

TLDR : Answer Summary

The inquiry concerns the possibility of obtaining a Work Permit (W-P) in Thailand without the need to exit the country. The poster is exploring options as they have a job offer ready but is uncertain about the likelihood of a waiver on the visa run requirement by the government agency contractor.
