I wasn't even looking for a new job, but I got a better offer from another office. I would rather stay in my current job if they can pay me more. Has anyone ever used a job offer to get a raise? I'm just scared my manager might get mad and tell me to leave. Does doing this usually work out to get a raise?

If it were me, I'd consider using that better job offer to negotiate a raise, it's a common tactic and can work if your manager values you. I get your worry about their reaction, but if they want to keep you, they might match the offer.

I brought an offer to my manager and emphasized I was happy where I was. They asked for a couple of days and came back with a counter. It worked, but it felt like a bit of a reset in trust.
