Accept if you gave the number and they agreed to it. You're not countering at that point, you're just being annoying and will only leave a bad impression. I'd probably rescind the offer if I gave someone what they asked for and they now wanted more.

This. If you wanted more, you should have asked for more to begin with.

Always always always negotiate for more! There’s a book called “Never Split the Difference” that’s a great point of reference for this topic.

ask for more but be ok if they say no, then do not push back or they may rescind.

No, they may rescind if you got what you asked for, and now asking for more.

No. You asked for it and they agreed. You can’t keep asking for more. That’s unethical and annoying

Did you give a range or a specific number.

Specific number

For anyone who receives a quarterly bonus or raise in some form, does your employer start to schedule you for less hours when your raise kicks in, or pull you from a future schedule entirely once you receive a bonus; only to put you back on once the hours you would have worked and earned the amount given are passed? Ie; a part time employee getting $200.00 in a quarterly bonus and then not being scheduled a whole week during a bi-weekly pay period where they would have earned more on the clock…?
