AIBU to expect people to understand that because I go to bed at 2am, I am not going to be up at 7am like 'I should be'??

Why is it that people think they have the right to comment on the times I choose to keep like I am some kind of lazy arse who chooses to sleep later than most people? The fact that we are a home based company, and our line of work, means that we are rarely asleep before 2am, any night of the week. And so therefore, we get up later than 'normal' people. In this house it works very well because DD1, DD2 and DD1's BF all hog the bathroom until 8.30am anyway, so we get up after they have all finished.

But why do people who don't even know me, including a courier, think it ok to comment on the fact that I have clearly just got out of bed at 9am? Is it really that awful to want the same amount of sleep as people who go to bed at 11pm?
