. ${0%/*}/wrkenv.sh
gets the directory path (as is executed) of the running script and sources the script wrkenv.sh present in the above reslut directory.
If user is running a script as /home/justsam/test.sh , then the first line of the code fetches the directory (/home/justsam in this case and sources the wrkenv.sh script
jobName_sh=${0##*/}
This is meant to remove all characters before the last “/ “from the path entered to invoke the script, leaving only the name of the script.
## matches the longest match from start of the string, and looks for the last occurrence of “/” from beginning, if only # was used it would match the shortest match from start of the string, looking for the first occurrence of “/” from beginning.
jobName=${jobName_sh%.*}
This is meant to remove '.' and all the characters after the '.'
Ex: If jobName_sh in test.sh, then .sh is removed and gives the name of the file without the extension.

service(8) System Manager's Manual service(8)
NAME
service - run a System V init script
SYNOPSIS
service SCRIPT COMMAND [OPTIONS]
service --status-all
service --help | -h | --version
DESCRIPTION
service runs a System V init script in as predictable environment as possible, removing most environment variables and with current working
directory set to /.
The SCRIPT parameter specifies a System V init script, located in /etc/init.d/SCRIPT. The supported values of COMMAND depend on the
invoked script, service passes COMMAND and OPTIONS it to the init script unmodified. All scripts should support at least the start and
stop commands. As a special case, if COMMAND is --full-restart, the script is run twice, first with the stop command, then with the start
command.
service --status-all runs all init scripts, in alphabetical order, with the status command.
EXIT CODES
service calls the init script and returns the status returned by it.
FILES
/etc/init.d
The directory containing System V init scripts.
ENVIRONMENT
LANG, TERM
The only environment variables passed to the init scripts.
SEE ALSO
/etc/init.d/skeleton,
update-rc.d(8),
init(8),
invoke-rc.d(8).
