Thinset is weak. Get a small bag of concrete floor leveler. Mix small batches and fill in the holes. It dries very fast.
I still need to clean the floor up but I am going to do this spot right and use level quick if necessary, so that stuff is okay to use for holes too? I may just dump a whole bag worth over all the holes and level it out best I can?
Yeah this is on the slab on the ground level.

Maybe if you're buying crap pre-mix stuff. The real stuff will break tile and peel a layer of concrete before giving up.
OP, small chips don't need special attention, just spread the thinset with the proper notched trowel for the tiles size you are putting down, butter the tiles before you place them, and go on.

This is what a professional would do and what's been recommended to me in similar situations. And it does dry fast so make a small batch first to get the hang of it.
Although for me I'd probably be a cheap arse and just use thinset. I just can't imagine those small spots that were filled with a less than perfect material being a problem. But be sure and let thinset dry so you don't scrape chunks if it out when going to town with notched trowel before tiling. Will need about a day to dry good enough.
