You should always have enough TP to do single target rotation. Maybe not 100% optimal, but enough to finish the fight which you made significantly shorter by AoEing.
NIN can't GOAD themselves and rely on the DRG Cross Class Invigorate anyway for bonus TP. (I don't have it yet, but can still do fine, I just do the single target rotation when out of TP+Doton/Katon depending on how many mobs and their health levels).
