A tax preparer informed me that since i work temporary short term construction jos, I can claim $30 a day for this in unreimbursed employee expenses. Is this correct information?

I have never heard of such a thing. Have him point it out to you on the IRS web site. The only reference for $30 a day is travel expenses and that would be travel to another city.

Not unless you have receipts for specific eligible unreimbursed employee expenses. Stay far away from this person when preparing your taxes. He'll get you in trouble.
If he's a CPA, he's unethical. If he is just preparing taxes but not formally trained, he's either incompetent or dishonest, or both.
