Multiple-entry work permits (MEWPs)
The MEWP is designed for employees travelling regularly for short periods of work permit employment with the same employer in the UK and Northern Ireland.
You can use this permit and visa to enter UK as many times as you want to, within the validity, for the same purpose as they are given.
Since both the offices in the UK and Thailand agree that you should use the WP and the visa to enter UK even though you'll be there as a tourist THEN go ahead, by all means.
HR คนนั้นเค้าก็ให้เบอร์โทรมา ในเคสที่ immigration ต้องการคนที่จะคอมเฟิร์มอ่ะคะ เผื่อเค้าจะโทรไปถาม
That may help if you decide to use that work permit to enter. But having said that, I do not support this since the permit is going to be used for the wrong purpose. If you happen to get caught out when arriving at a UK port, this may jeopardise you chance of getting another work permit and WP visa.
Again, it is up to you to decide what will be best for you and your career. Should you wish to use the WP to enter the UK for other purpose than WORK, then DO make sure to convince the IO that you are going to be there for WORK and WORK only and nothing else.
There may be nothing to it at all and I may have been too serious about the whole thing but when it comes to immigration I always make sure to cover all the bases.
I am giving you information below so that you can see where you stand
เราขอจดหมายรับรองว่าเรายังทำงานที่นี่อยู่ จากออฟฟิศที่กรุงเทพแทนได้มั๊ยคะ มันจะช่วยได้รึป่าว
A letter from office in Thailand means nothing to the UK immigration, the one issued by the office in the UK matters most in this case.

9. RE-ENTRY OF PASSENGERS PREVIOUSLY GIVEN LEAVE AS PERMIT HOLDERS
9.1. Permit holders returning to same employment
Where a person who was previously admitted with a work permit returns after a temporary absence abroad and the immigration officer is satisfied that he is returning to the same approved employment as before he left the United Kingdom, he should normally be given leave to enter to continue his previous stay.
If the time limit previously imposed on the holder of a long-term permit has expired or will expire in less than two months and the immigration officer is satisfied that he is returning to the same approved employment, he may be given leave to enter for 2 months, and advised to contact IND (Immigration) and Work Permits (UK). If the passenger is able to produce a letter from Work Permits (UK)confirming that continued employment is approved, leave to enter in line with the period approved may be granted.

2.5. Passengers seeking entry for different purpose power to cancel entry clearance If a passenger arrives in the UK, with an entry clearance which is capable of having effect as leave to enter but seeks entry in a different capacity from that endorsed on the entry clearance, the immigration officer should establish whether it is appropriate to grant leave to enter exceptionally without an entry clearance. He should be granted a short period of leave and advised to seek a variation of leave by applying to the Integrated Casework Directorate before his leave expires. If the passenger is seeking entry for a different purpose than that specified in the entry clearance and the immigration officer is satisfied that the passenger does not qualify for entry, he should be refused leave to enter. The immigration officer should also consider whether to cancel the entry clearance under Article 6 (2)(a) of the Order (IND may want to insert the relevant factors for the IO to consider). This cancellation does not attract a right of appeal.

Visa Nationals
If you are a 'visa national' i.e. a national of a country where you are required to have a visa before you can come to the UK, as well as the work permit, you must also obtain a visa (within 6 months of the date of issue of your work permit) from your nearest British consular post (British Embassy/High Commission) abroad BEFORE you travel to the UK. Please refer to Information Sheet 3 "Work Permit Holders and Visa Nationals" for further advice.
You will need to apply for a new visa even if you already have a multiple-entry visa in your passport to come to the UK as a business visitor.
On arrival in the UK, you must produce to the Immigration Officer: your current passport, your work permit and if you are a visa national, your visa for entry as a work permit holder which will be endorsed in your passport.
It is the responsibility of the Immigration Officer to check that the work permit is in order and that you still intend to come to work in accordance with the terms of the permit. The Immigration Officer may ask you a few questions as part of this checking process. Problems only arise if the Immigration Officer suspects that the permit has been issued fraudulently or if the basis upon which the permit was issued has since changed substantially e.g. you are no longer coming to work for the employer named on the permit.
"เค้าก็เลยแนะนำว่าให้เราบอก ตม. ว่าเรามา business meeting"
To attend a business meeting will be seen as a 'business visitor', therefore never mention this to the immigration when arriving in the UK.

That is all I can say to you and I hope everything works out to your advantage.
Best wishes.
