This is from the translated transcript of the live letter. There will more than likely not be a thief job.
Just like 'there will be no Scholar. Thats arcanist in that AF!' We'll see with time.

All you did was quote that Thief won't be a guild, which I agree with. I still think it will be a job. And to be fair... Pirate could eventually be a job, too. Its not so hard to believe that an NPC can teach the ways of a dead Job that no longer exists in the world (SCHOLAR)
