Antiwork

I didn’t accept the salary offer and asked for more.. now I’m scared..

So I got a decent job offer yesterday and the pay was fine but I know they can do better. I asked if the pay was negotiable but got back a solid no. I ended up requesting a lil more anyways as the “lowest I could accept” and hit send pretty confidently as I feel there is always a little wiggle room in the first offer. Now I'm second guessing. What if they were serious about it and I said that i can't accept the lower offer? Would they rescind the offer or give me one more chance to accept as is? I know they don't really have anyone else except me applying for the position so it really only hurts them in the long run but I still actually want this job. Now I have to wait until next week to find out if they will accept or not.…

Need some positive vibes this is gonna work out okay and I'm being ridiculous.
