Last year I started working less for even more money. Another company wanted to poach me, so my boss had to make me an offer. Went down to a 32 hour work week with Fridays off while also getting a significant raise, so I stayed at the company. He didn't like it, but there wasn't much of a choice because we're severely understaffed.

Let's see if I can do this again this year. Not working less hours (32h is fine), but getting an even better offer.

Probably he might fire you after getting trained staffed. This is very old strategy. Hold onto a employee till a cheaper replacement. Enjoy while it last start searching for better company
