I quit a committee

At work we have volunteer committees that take on projects outside the normal scope of work in order to accomplish things. It's made up of people from various disciplines in the company and is designed to provide perspective. You do the work on company time but you still have to do your job. My committee has been super demanding of my time and I'm already very busy doing my actual job. It doesn't really do much for me career wise other than being a line item on my resume. I finally realized yesterday that I'm volunteering go work harder for no tangible benefit. I don't like anyone in the group and there's no reward. So I resigned. Apparently no one resigns they just do it until their assignment changes and they can't do it anymore. So, thanks r/antiwork for opening my eyes.
