Me, myself or I?

Which is correct? The CFO and ____ are very optimistic about the potential of Metro Ethernet. a. me b. myself c. I

Answer: c

Explanation: I and me are first person singular pronouns. As the subject of the sentence (the “doer”), it’s I. As the object (the focus of the sentence’s action), it’s me. In neither case is myself ever correct.
