Non-compete with job offer - does it restrict me working for a customer

I have a job offer with a non-compete clause attached. The job is working for an overseas manufacturer who supplies mechanical components to manufacturing companies worldwide. Company US headquarters are in Texas, and I'm located in Georgia. Ultimately, I want to know if I'm restricted from going to work for a customer. And there's a 1-month severance to allow employee to find alternative employment.

Competition. Employee will not, either during employment with Employer or for a period of one year thereafter, directly or indirectly, for himself/herself or any third party, accept employment or engage in any business or activity which is directly or indirectly in competition with Employer.

Solicitation of Customers. Employee will not, for a period of one (1) year after the termination of his/her employment, solicit any current customer or potential customer of Employer identified during the course of employment with Employer and with whom Employee had interactions on behalf of Employer during his/her employment, or otherwise divert or attempt to divert any existing business Employer.

Geographical Area. The geographical area to which this provision applies is any area in which Employer currently solicits or conducts business, and in which Employee worked for Employer, i.e. any territory assigned to Employee by Employer.
