Well the time between me asking and me getting a new job was like 9 months. I was actually patient and waited a while before I looked but eventually couldn't wait. So I got the offer and then asked for a counter and they wouldn't do it.

    Ah yeah, that's the way to do it. Personally I interview around every few years and present higher offers to my current company, most of the time they counter and I stay, couple times they didn't and I left. Unfortunately it's pretty much the only way to keep your salary above inflation these days, but since I started in the data industry I've 6x my total compensation, so it definitely does work.
