Possible it is damaged. Be ESD aware and do not power up with any voltage on any pins > 0.5V (Latchup failure)If raising p9 (reset) does not lower Q to logic "0"=<20% Vdd) replace the IC. Be more careful next time for handling failures of ESD etc.- 
- This is the most direct way to test / reset the output.

- If raising p9 (reset) does not lower Q to logic "0"=<20% Vdd) replace the IC.
- No sweat, be more careful next time for handling failures of ESD etc. Most new IC failures are handling issues or over voltage on power-up which causes excess junction heat from shoot-thru Pch to Nch both ON at the same time.
