Also I know someone who was sanctioned for not going to a job interview the jobcentre had arranged for them at 11.30am on a particular day.
A day they had an interview themselves at 10am and another at 1.30pm some distance apart.
They told the jobcentre this but they said they must go to that interview too.

The first interview took until after 11 am, no way could they get to the 11.30am jobcentre arranged one.
They were then told they would be being sanctioned for not going to it.

As it turned out, they got the 1.30pm job they went for and were able to tell the jobcentre where to go.
It doesn't always end up with that good result however and as you point out, people can get sanctioned ridiculously.
OMG They were so lucky they got the job.
