Be glad they are doing it. Let them do it at their own pace. Complaining will only make things worse.
They don't have the experience you have doing all these tasks. They could do it fast but half-assed. Or they can do it slow but good enough. But they can't do it fast and good.
You sound like an employer who thinks tasks can to be done in an instant.
It takes longer than 3 minutes to empty a dishwasher for example. It just feels that way for you because you can disable your brain when doing so. They can't, because they don't know where every little thing is located in your kitchen.
I urge you to time it next time. And not to speedrun it either.
No I've actually timed it, just for fun, and it's literally 3min start to finish. Doing it as fast as I can is just shy of 2min.
You talk about teens like they're some sort of incapable halfwits.
Well, they're teens. They were incapable halfwits but are slowly transitioning to angsty molasses.
Also they've not yet broken their joyful minds by menial and repetitive work. Just wait for their dreams to die and they'll be more docile.
