Dashboard now shows two 'Me' bars: realized gross (~£409k, from
SUM(payslip taxable_pay) = P60 basis) and package/grant-value (~£267k,
levels.fyi-comparable). Document that gross MUST come from taxable_pay, NOT
salary+bonus+rsu_vest (rsu_vest is net/partial, understates RSU ~50%).

### "Your comp vs the market" dashboard panel + your baseline
### "Your comp vs the market" dashboard panel + your baselines
The Job Hunter Grafana dashboard (`grafana.viktorbarzin.me` → Job Hunter) has a
bar chart **"Your comp vs the market — London p50 total comp"** ranking every
company's London median TC with your current comp shown in line. Your figure is
deliberately **not hardcoded in the committed dashboard JSON** — it lives in the
DB as a labeled comp_point (`company_slug='self-current'`, `source='self'`,
display "Me (Meta IC5)"). It sits below the £500k alert bar (never pings Slack)
and ranks too low to surface in `analyze` leaders — it only appears on this
chart and as its own `comp-table` row.
company's London median TC with your comp shown in line. Your figures are
deliberately **not hardcoded in the committed dashboard JSON** — they live in
the DB as labeled comp_points with `source='self'` (the panel tags any
`source='self'` row as "You" and renders one bar each). There are **two**, by
design:
Update it when your comp changes (the only place the number lives):
- `self-realized` — **"Me - realized gross" ≈ £409k**: your actual P60 gross
for the current tax year. **Source = `SUM(payslip_ingest.payslip.taxable_pay)`**
for the tax year (this equals the P60 "pay for tax"; do NOT use
`salary+bonus+rsu_vest`, where `rsu_vest` is net/partial and understates RSU
income by ~half). Inflated by concurrent stacked RSU vests + META price.
- `self-current` — **"Me - package (grant TC)" ≈ £267k**: base + bonus +
current-year RSU refresher *grant face* (£117,927). This is the basis
**levels.fyi uses for the company bars**, so it's the apples-to-apples figure
for comparing a job *offer*.
Both sit below the £500k alert bar (never ping Slack). Re-seed when comp changes
(realized: re-pull `taxable_pay`; grant-value: from the YE letter). The
grant-value seed (run the realized one the same way with `company_slug='self-realized'`,
`company_display_name='Me - realized gross'`, `total_value=<taxable_pay sum>`):
