Do we think he's truly gone altogether from SCP?
Duck bringing in a replacement obviously doesn't bode well, but even with his quirks, Don's still a young man by relative standards and was instrumental in the biggest developments SCP ever had. They know the guy has a fastball and they have to know that it's in SCP's interest that he recapture it.
Perhap's Duck showing up and their refusal to give him a return date was really meant to tell the audience that his 'sabbatical' was actually a firing, but I'm not quite convinced of that.
Smart businessmen don't cast out good people if they can attempt to rehabilitate them. Then again, Freddy Rumsen's 'time away' was clearly never intended for him to come back from. With this season so frequently slipping back into the first couple of years of the show, perhaps Don really did just get Rumsen'd. Afterall, it was Sterling that gave Rumsen the 'leave of absence' treatment making it clear that Rumsen wouldn't be welcomed back and that the terminology was a favor for his years of service.
Eh...maybe y'all are right. Perhaps Draper did just get shitcanned.
