Often used to describe a lot of folks doing some fast work in a cramped space. A busy place indeed - all you see is asses and elbows.

Military where I first heard it, at least mid seventies, maybe earlier. Not sure it originated there. Of course, they used the slightly less PC term Assh---s. More alliterative and seems to roll off the tongue a little easier. Sounds better with a heavy southern accent as well.
