you have too many *s, so your day-of-week is ignored.

	min hour day month day-of-week

you want:
	cron "2 16 * * 1-4"
	cron "2 12 * * 5"

or, if you are using the latest development code, you can say:

	Service Prog {
	    # ...

	    Schedule testing {
	        *		=> no
   		mon 0700 - 1600	=> yes
   		tue 0700 - 1600	=> yes
		wed 0700 - 1600	=> yes
   		thu 0700 - 1600	=> yes
		fri 0700 - 1200 => yes
	    }
