So every morning (and whenever the engine is cold) under the hood is an awful squeal. But after driving around for like 30min and leting the engine warm up I can barely hear it. A co-worker told me its most likely my alt. belt. Is this correct? if so is it easy to get at/fix myself? or should i pay the mechanic to do it?

Squeeling def. isn't good. It'll wear out the belt teeth really fast. Don't use belt dressing unless it's only temporary. Might as well replace the belts if you have chipped teeth etc. It's not very hard, but you may have to remove the other accessory belts while you're at it. Don't pay someone unless you've never turned a wrench in your life.
