Or run your script every friday and test week of year is odd with

Code:
if [ $(( $(date +%U) % 2 )) -gt 0 ]


Tested using below:
at now [ $(( $(date +'\%U') % 2)) -gt 0 ] && /path/rjob.sh
ksh: \35 % 2: syntax error
You're making it too hard on yourself, just use:
Code:
if [ $(( $(date +%U) % 2 )) -gt 0 ]
then    /path/rjob.sh
fi
