My old manager told me to always ask for more money in a job offer, and it just got me a $5k bump!

Yeah @evan_burns95 they expect negotiation, it's not rude at all!

Wasn't it kind of rude to ask for more? That's what I always thought... like they might just take the offer back. But hearing a real story like yours really makes it clear. I guess they expect some back and forth, and the worst they can say is no. It's a simple question that can make a real difference. I'm going to try it next time for sure.

Actually, they could just pull the offer entirely if you push too hard.
