Nene’s 'Got Talent' Column Highlights Post-Holiday Office Quiet
A recent column by Nene in Thai Post reflects on the quiet atmosphere in offices following the recent long holiday period in Thailand.
In a recent column titled 'Nene Got Talent' published by Thai Post on July 28, 2026, the author shares a personal observation regarding the post-holiday work environment. The piece notes that following a recent long holiday, the office has been exceptionally quiet, with only the author and the cleaning staff present, as most other employees have taken time off for vacations.
For residents and travelers in Thailand, this observation highlights the cultural tendency for extended leave during holiday periods. It serves as a reminder that administrative offices, government services, and private businesses may experience reduced staffing levels or temporary closures immediately following public holidays. If you are planning to visit government offices or conduct business in Thailand, it is advisable to verify operating hours in advance, as many staff members may be away on holiday.
While the column provides a lighthearted look at the empty office, it does not specify which particular holiday period caused this mass exodus of staff. It remains to be confirmed whether this trend of extended post-holiday leave is widespread across all sectors or if it is limited to specific industries. Travelers should remain flexible with their schedules during these times.
