How much did you pay to get a Slashvertisement?

I've been working three eight hour days per week for quite a while now. I know it bugs the other people in the office but all you have to do is ask for it when you interview for the job. I make enough to be comfortable with that many hours and I'm sure there are LOTS of people that make enough to be ok with far less than 40 hours too.
